Lyness began his career as a youngster with Birmingham City, but never played for the first team. He signed for Scottish Premier League club Heart of Midlothian in 2009, and spent a spell on loan at East Fife of the Scottish Second Division, but again, never played first-team football. On returning to England in 2011, he spent a season with Conference Premier club Kidderminster Harriers, playing ten matches, and then joined Burton Albion, with whom he made his first appearance in the Football League. After two spells on loan to Blackpool and a season with the club on a permanent basis, Lyness spent the 2017–18 season with Nuneaton Town of the National League North.
He returned to the Scottish top flight with St Mirren on a short-term contract in September 2018, and spent the second half of the season with Scottish League One club Raith Rovers before rejoining St Mirren. Over the next three seasons, he was the regular backup goalkeeper but made only seven first-team appearances, and signed for Airdrieonians in October 2022.
In international football, Lyness was capped four times for England at under-17 level. Wikipedia text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License - Full article |
