Martyn Naylor (born August 2, 1977 in Walsall) is an English professional footballer. He is a wing-back and currently plays for Welsh champions The New Saints having previously played league football in both England and Scotland.
Naylor began his career with Hereford United, but left to join Telford United on a free transfer in August 1996 without making a first team appearance. In August 1997 he joined Shrewsbury Town, making his league debut on August 9, 1997 in the 2-1 win at home to Doncaster Rovers. Later that month he also played in the League Cup defeat at home to Brentford and kept his place for the following league game away to Cambridge United. Town lost 4-3 and Naylor was sent off. He didn't play for Shrewsbury again.
In September 1998 he rejoined Telford United on loan, moving on a free transfer the following January. He remained with Telford until July 2000 when he joined Scottish side Greenock Morton. He played nine times for Morton before returning to England in 2001 with Bilston Town.
In 2002 Naylor joined The New Saints (then named Total Network Solutions) and was a regular member of their Championship winning sides. He was released from his contract at the end of the 2005-06 season, but was retained as a non-contract player with the Saints after an unsuccessful trial with Kidderminster Harriers.[1] He went on to make 15 Welsh Premier League appearances in the 2006-07 season and remains with the Saints for the 2007-08 season.
His brother Lee is also a professional footballer, currently playing for Celtic.[2]
