Geoffrey "Geoff" Martin (born 9 March 1940) is an English former footballer who scored 41 goals from 295 appearances in the Football League playing as a left winger for Chesterfield (in two spells), Darlington, Carlisle United, Workington and Grimsby Town. He was on the books of Leeds United, but his only appearance was in the League Cup.

According to a profile in the Workington Times & Star, "Martin was not the most skilful of wingers, but ideal in a 4–4–2 format. His work-rate was phenomenal, so strong and persistent."
