A product of Portsmouth's youth system, he did well enough in the club's youth and reserve sides to win promotion to the first team squad and make his debut whilst still a trainee.

He signed professional forms in August 2001 and made his first team start in March 2002 against Crewe Alexandra.

After the departure of Peter Crouch to Aston Villa and injuries to others, he led the line in the final weeks of the 2001-02 season.

He began the new term with a three month loan stint at Brentford.

Rowan joined Colchester United in August 2003 on a season's loan, followed by a similar deal with Luton Town in 2004-05.

He joined the Hatters on a permanent basis in July 2005 with a three-year contract.

Rowan joined Birmingham City in January 2007 with a contract to June 2010.

After a loan spell, he joined Queens Park Rangers in January 2008 with a contract to June 2012.
