Ross Weare (born 19 March 1977) is a former professional footballer, who played as a forward for Queens Park Rangers and Bristol Rovers in The Football League between 1998 and 2002.
Weare was born in Perivale, in London, and played for East Ham United.[1]
He joined QPR in March 1999 and made four League appearances for the club. In July 2001, he was signed to Bristol Rovers by his old QPR manager Gerry Francis.[1][2] At Bristol Rovers he scored his first professional goal in a win at Scunthorpe United.[3] He had suffered from back injuries while with QPR,[4] and his ongoing problems in this area lead to his premature retirement from football at the age of 25.
He later played for Isthmian League club East Thurrock United.[5]
