Mark Metcalf (footballer)

Mark Metcalf (footballer)

Mark Peter Metcalf (b. 25 September 1965 in Norwich) is a former professional footballer.

Metcalf, a midfielder, began his career with Norwich City. While at Carrow Road he won England youth caps and an FA Youth Cup winner's medal in 1983. He made just one substitute appearance for the club's first team, however, on 13 November 1982 in a 1-0 defeat against West Ham at Upton Park. His first team opportunities in the professional game were effectively ended by a broken leg that he suffered at the outset of his career, from which he never fully recovered.

He was released by the club in 1985 but was re-signed by the Canaries later that year. He was released again in 1987 and played non-league football in Norfolk for King's Lynn, Wroxham, Lakeford United, Diss Town and Wymondham Town.
