Casper Rose was a fictional character in the Sky One football drama, Dream Team (TV series), played by Robert Kazinsky. He was also played by Conor Maynard as his younger self. He was said to be called Casper as he liked ghosts and roses. He was introduced in Season 9 as the main character after a cataclysmic finish to Season 8 wiping out all but four of the players.
Casper Rose (born 1 January 1983) was the glamour in the dressing room, the second biggest star around which the other players revolve - the uniting force that binds them together under Henry Leslie's tutelage. Having an ex-footballer father and a wealthy mother meant Cass never wanted for anything as a young boy. Fast-tracked into the Charlton youth team with the influence of his father, Cass' passion for football came alive when he met Eugene Christie. Where he was played at a young age by Conor Maynard. They immediately discovered that they were the perfect on-pitch partners, devastating defences from the ages of ten to sixteen. They signed pro terms together, and were the best of friends.
In his first full season as a Charlton first team member, he and Eugene steered the Addicks to the Premiership by winning the First Division.
The following season, Casper's career took a turn for the worse when it was discovered that these two boys had more than just football and friendship in common - they shared the same father.
Due to a drop in form he was lined up to be sold to Millwall until a bust up took place between him and Eugene during a match between Charlton and Harchester United. Cass' jealousy of Eugene, his father's other son, mounted which resulted in him enacting a devastating revenge on his brother and ending Eugene's big money move to Liverpool. This tore their friendship apart. Ironically their bust up against Harchester was the first game both brothers wore the same surname on the back of their shirt.
Casper was then loaned out to Millwall for the rest of the season and then in 2001 was sold to Tottenham but only stayed there for one season. In 2002, he joined Italian side Roma in the aftermath of the death of his father and being unable to reconcile with his brother. Although he scored goals for both Spurs and Roma he was inconsistent and was not meeting his potential.
