Marcus William Law (born 28 September 1975) is an English former footballer and current manager of Kettering Town. This is Law's second spell in charge of the Poppies, having left Chasetown in May 2015 to take charge. Law's former clubs include Tamworth, Coventry Sphinx, Racing Club Warwick, Quorn and Barwell.
Born in Coventry, West Midlands, Law started his career as a goalkeeper at Bristol Rovers, making two appearances in the Football League during the 1994–95 season. He then moved into non-league football, playing for Stafford Rangers, before a hip injury forced him into premature retirement whilst playing for the Sacramento Knights in America.
He later went on to manage non-league sides Coventry Sphinx, Racing Club Warwick, Quorn and Barwell. He also spent time coaching in the youth set ups at Aston Villa and Coventry City. While at Barwell he won the Midland Football Alliance, the highest position they had achieved as a club in their history and started an unbeaten run that eventually stretched to 66 games.
His successful run attracted the attention of Conference National side Kettering Town and he was appointed manager on 1 October 2010. Kettering finished 14th in his first season in charge of the club.
