Athletic defender who joined Crewe Alexandra on a two and a half year contract in October 2009 from non-league Wealdstone, but has had his progress hampered by injury.

A former England C International, Martin joined the Alex originally over the summer of 2009 on a trial basis, spending three weeks with the club, but at the time former manager Gudjon Thordarson decided to let him go.

Carl then trained with the likes of Southend and Dagenham, and was poised to sign for the Daggers, until Dario renewed his interest in the 23-year-old and offered him the chance to join Crewe Alexandra, which he didn't think twice about.

After taking time to settle in to professional football, Martin made his Crewe debut at Hereford United in January 2010. He would go on to play a further six games that season, and score in Crewe's win over Cheltenham Town. But he would suffer an unfortunate experience in a win over Grimsby Town when he received the first red card of his career, but it was something he readily admits he learnt a lot from. Having got himself back in the side after his suspension, injury hit once more to prematurely end his season.

That injury would see him miss virtually all of the 2010/11 season and Martin would be limited to reserve outings only for Crewe. He spent much of the 2011 summer building up his fitness at the club, and has came back to be a regular for the club so far in the 2011/12 campaign.
