On 23 June 2012, Rose got a call from Stockport manager Jim Gannon who offered him the chance to re-sign for the club he left at the end of the 2010–11 season on a non-contract basis and handed him his second debut in the 1–0 win against Wrexham at Edgeley Park just two days later, Jordan's clean sheet earned him the Man of The Match award for the game.
