Marc Joseph scored on 29 December 2007 his first Rotherham goal with a fine shot from 25 yards which became the winning goal against Notts County, giving Rotherham their first league win against them after 50 years. Joseph joined Altrincham on 6 August 2010.[2]

In the summer of 2011, Joseph joined Kendal Town on a free transfer, becoming the club captain.
