Daniel "Dan" Holman (born 5 June 1990) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for Cheltenham Town. He began his career with a number of Northampton-based youth clubs, including Northampton ON Chenecks and Long Buckby. He featured for the first-team for Cogenhoe United, two spells with Long Buckby and briefly for Oxford City before joining Conference North side Histon in 2011. Holman earned a move to Conference Premier club Braintree Town in 2012, and his goalscoring form brought him to the attention of Football League teams, as he signed for Colchester United in 2014. He appeared for Wrexham, Aldershot Town, Dover Athletic and Woking on loan after failing to secure a place in Colchester's first-team. Following his successful loan spell with Woking, Holman joined Cheltenham Town.
Born in Northampton, Holman's career began in the Northamptonshire local leagues, where he featured in the youth sides for Northampton ON Chenecks,Long Buckby, and Moulton Magpies. He featured in the first-team for United Counties League Premier Division side Cogenhoe United and later rejoined Long Buckby, where he had scored 60 goals in 77 appearances over two seasons. His second stint with Long Buckby was divided by a short spell with Oxford City in 2010. Having scored 30 league and cup goals in 35 appearances during the 2009–10 season with Long Buckby, Holman was signed by Southern League side Oxford City in the summer of 2010, After making his debut as a substitute on 28 August when City fell to a 2–1 defeat to Truro City, Holman scored his first and only goal after coming off the bench to grab an equaliser against Swindon Supermarine on 4 September. He played just one more game for City when he started in their 1–0 FA Cup first qualifying round defeat to Mangotsfield United on 11 September. He returned to Long Buckby, where he secured 26 goals in 37 outings during the remained of the 2010–11 season.
