Career

Born in Salford, Greater Manchester, Rose began his career as a trainee at Manchester United where he was released before making an appearance.^[1] He joined Conference National club Chester City, moving on to Hereford United^[2] and then into the Football League with Yeovil Town, from where he spent spells on loan at Cheltenham Town and Scunthorpe United.^[2][3] In the summer of 2006 he agreed to join Stockport County on a two-year contract,^[4] at the end of which he signed a one-year extension with the option of a further year.^[5] His knack for scoring long-range free kicks^[3] made Rose a fans' favourite at Stockport, leading to terrace chants of "Michael Rose has got magic toes".^{[citation needed]}

Rose joined Norwich City on loan until the end of the 2009–10 season. On 30 January 2010, he scored the winning goal in a 2–1 victory over Hartlepool United.

He joined Swindon Town on a free transfer in June 2010 on an initial two year deal, with an option for a third year.^[6] Where he played 41 games scoring 3 goals.

Rose joined Colchester on a 2 year deal after Swindon were relegated and he had his contact terminated.^[7]

International career

Rose has been capped four times for the England National Game XI, which represents England at semi-professional level,^[8] making his debut in a 3–2 defeat to Italy.^[9]
