Signed by Kevin Blackwell he was largely ignored during Blackwell's time in charge. It was under Dennis Wise that Rui was 'discovered'. Rui Marques made a central defence starting berth his during the first half of the 2007-08 season but it fell away when he departed for the African Nations tournament for Angola and then was injured on his return. He had to watch the Wembley play-off final from the bench as Macca kept faith with young Paul Huntington.
Rui has retained the number 5 squad number for the 2008-09 League One season.
