Scott Roderick Marshall (born 1 May 1973) is a Scottish former professional footballer and coach, who played as a full back. Marshall was one of the two interim club managers at Aston Villa along with Andy Marshall following the sacking of Paul Lambert in February 2015.
Marshall is the son of former Hearts and England under-23 goalkeeper Gordon Marshall and the brother of Gordon Jnr. who played in goal for Celtic and Scotland. He started his playing career at Arsenal and broke into their first team at the age of 19, winning five Scotland under-21 caps. He scored his only goal for the Gunners in their 2–0 victory over Newcastle United in March 1996 and at the end of that season was voted as the Gunners' Young Player of the Year by the supporters.
In seven seasons with Arsenal he only made 25 appearances, spending spells on loan at Rotherham United, Oxford United and Sheffield United. He made three league appearances as Arsenal won the 1997-98 Premier League, however this was not enough to qualify for a winners' medal.
In August 1998, Dave Jones signed him for Southampton on a free transfer. Saints thought they had made a transfer coup, but Marshall soon showed why Arsenal let him go, scoring an own goal in his debut against Leeds United in a 3–0 defeat on 8 September 1998, repeating this four days later in a 4–0 defeat at Newcastle United.
