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.
