Rotherham United

On 7 November 2007, he signed a loan deal at League Two side Rotherham United,[7] he then joined permanently until the end of the season in January.[8] Ross was released after his short-team deal at the Millers expired, along with five other players.

Non-League

Ross signed for Gainsborough Trinity, after a trial period in which he scored in the last minute 2–1 win over Chesterfield on 19 July 2008. On 20 March 2009, Ross was signed by Alfreton Town manager Nicky Law.[9]

On 16 May 2011, Ross signed for Harrogate Town.[10] He rejoined Boston United in November 2011, signing new contracts with the club in 2012 and 2013. He began the 2014–15 season with Belper Town.[11]
