Marcus Lewis Holness, an English professional footballer who was born in Swinton (Greater Manchester), 8/12/88 is his full name. He was a defender.

Holness played his first match after signing on a permanent basis for the club, a 1-0 victory over Milton Keynes Dons on 26 January 2008. Holness was a substitute bench player for the remainder of 2007-08 season, which resulted in his appearance being limited to just twenty-one.

After an unsuccessful 2009-10 season, which saw him made fourteen appearance in all competition, though the club was promoted to League One, Holness was given a first team opportunity in the 2010-11 season following the departure of Nathan Stanton. His performance in the first team at the club saw him signed a contract extension, keeping him until 2013. On 25 April 2011, he scored his first senior goal as Rochdale was defeated by Charlton Athletic. Holness spent his most successful period in Rochdale at 10/11 season, as the club debuted in the League One finishing at ninth position while Holness never missed a game during the season and because of this, he was named the club’s Most Improved Player.

Holness made his Burton Albion debut in the first round of the League Cup against Sheffield United, but was sent-off in extra time after a second bookable offence, though they went through to next round following a penalty- shootout. After serving a two match suspension, his league debut finally came on 1 September 2012, in a 3-0 loss against Exeter City. However, he suffered a hamstring injury during a match against York City on 19 September 2012. After two months on the sidelined, Holness made his return from injury on 10 November 2012, in a 1-0 loss against Cheltenham Town. His first goal then came on 23 February 2013, in a 4-2 win over Exeter City. Despite suffering from another injury, Holness finished the season, making thirty appearance in all competitions.

Holness missed the 2008-09 season due to injury. His first appearance of 2008-09 season was on October 10, 2008 in a 1-1 draw against Lincoln City. His first opportunities on the team were limited. He only made six league appearances for Rochdale in 2008-09. Holness was loaned to Conference National team Barrow for a month during January 2009. The deal was extended to Holness for another month after Holness spent a month at Barrow.

His performances were so impressive that Keith Hill signed him as Rochdale’s first signing in the January 2008 transfer window.

However, in the 2011-12 season, Holness continued to be a first team regular at the club and then scored his first goal of the season, in a 4-2 win over Bury. By the first half of the season, he scored two more goals against Colchester United and Brentford. However, Holness fell out of favour after Rochdale manager Steve Eyre was replaced by John Coleman.
