As a 17-year-old apprentice Moore was given his first–team debut for Chester (and only league appearance) as a substitute for Barry Butler in a 5–0 defeat at home to Northampton Town on 15 August 1987, the first day two substitutes could be used in The Football League.[1] Three days later Moore wore the number two shirt away at Blackpool in the League Cup[1] despite usually being a forward.[2] He did not make any more appearances at first–team level and drifted into non–league football with Rhyl.[3]
