Martin Pike (born 21 October 1964) is an English former professional football who played as a
Pike survived Bassett's player exodus and recruitment of several players in the pre-season of 1988 and was a regular in the 1988–89 season, whilst also contributing several crucial goals from his customary left back slot, as United bounced back at the first attempt finishing second. However, Pike found himself on the sidelines back in the second division as Bassett signed another left back David Barnes. With first team opportunities now limited, Pike went out on loan first to Tranmere Rovers and then Bolton Wanderers before a permanent move to Fulham. Pike played over 200 games for Fulham before he ended his Football League career at Rotherham United, and also had a period with Durham City.[2]
