Kevin Rose (born 23 November 1960 in Evesham) is a former English footballer who played as a goalkeeper. He holds the record of most consecutive appearances for Hereford United.

He started his career at local club Evesham United before moving to Ledbury Town. In 1979 he was signed by Lincoln City for £10,000 but made no first team appearances for the club. After a second spell at Ledbury, and having a potential move to Worcester City rejected, he signed for Hereford United in January 1983. He was first choice keeper at Edgar Street, making 253 consecutive appearances in the mid 1980s although Hereford enjoyed little success in the Fourth Division.

In 1989 he joined Bolton Wanderers but only played 10 league matches in two seasons, and was loaned to Carlisle United and Rochdale. He joined the latter in 1991, and had a goal incorrectly disallowed in a match against Bury. He came up for a corner and his header crossed the line by a couple of yards. Not that it matter as Rochdale scored seconds later with Rose providing the assist.

He finished his career at Kidderminster Harriers and also played for the English semi-professional side.
