Marc Victor North (29 May 1966 – 25 September 2001) was an English professional footballer who played as a striker from 1985 to 1993.
He notably played for Leicester City and had two spells with Grimsby Town as well as appearing for Luton Town, Lincoln City, Scunthorpe United, Birmingham City, Boston United and Kettering Town.
North was born in Ware, Hertfordshire. He came up through the youth ranks at Luton Town where he spent two years at the club. During that time he was loaned out to Lincoln City, Scunthorpe United and Birmingham City.
He finally got his big break playing under Alan Buckley at Grimsby Town. While at Grimsby he was remembered for coming off the subs bench to score twice in an FA Cup tie with Middlesbrough. His performances soon earned him a move to Leicester City in 1989. He left Filbert Street in 1991 after a mixed time at the club. His next move was to return to Grimsby Town on non-contract terms; he only featured in one game. He played out his career in the Conference with Boston United and Kettering Town before retiring.
