Daniel "Danny" Holland (born Febuary 18th 1983 in Mansfield, England) is an English footballer, currently playing for Conference North side Harrogate Town, where he plays as a striker.
Danny joined Harrogate Town in November 2004 from Hucknall Town on loan, however John Reed soon saw enough of Danny's skill and potential and Harrogate Town paid a significant four figure fee to make the move permanant.
Danny has been leading goalscorer for the last two seasons and so far has 66 goals in the league to his credit (in 125 league games), although he has a total of 85 goals in 151 appearances for Harrogate Town.
One of Danny's goals was the one he scored against Torquay United in the first round proper of the F.A. Cup at Plainmoor in the 2005/2006 season. At the time Torquay United were a league club and it needed a replay and penalties (which Torquay United won 6-5) at Wetherby Road to settle the tie.
Danny started the 2007/2008 season well and he won the Blue Square North Player of the Month award for August despite being sent off against Boston United. So far Danny has scored 17 goals this season (11 in the league) and is on course to be top scorer again.
