After intitially starting out as a substitute he became a first choice when the board slashed the wage bill just a handful of games in the season and made big strides with his running into the box and his eye for goal which saw him net four times; at Bath City and home to Newport County, Rothwell Town and Crawley Town. With the club in disarray following the sacking of Hughes, Rose followed his mentor out of the club to link up with Tim Harris at Newport County where he featured prominently, memorably scoring live on Sky TV in an FA Cup match against Blackpool. He left the Exiles to link up with Frank Gregan at Weston Super Mare in September 2003 as the Seagulls embarked on their first foray into the Southern League Premier and eventually the Conference South. Matt was captain at Woodspring Park before he left to rejoin the Tigers in 2007.   Previous Clubs: Cirencester Town, Gloucester City, Newport County, Weston Super Mare Appearances & Goals: Season Apps Subs Goals 1999/00  32    3    4  2007/08  41    3    3  Total   -   -   - Video Gallery: Last minute header against Team Bath Image Gallery: (click to view full size pics) Page last updated : 21st February 2008 Tiger Roar is an unofficial, independant production.
