Career
Moore was born in Newcastle upon Tyne. He began his football career in Newcastle United's Academy, then played non-League football for Bishop Auckland and Whitley Bay before taking a degree in journalism at Rutgers University in New Jersey. On returning to England in 2008 he rejoined Whitley Bay, and, after a one-game stint at Durham City, was part of their FA Vase-winning team in 2009. In March 2010, he turned professional for the first time, signing a contract with Football League Two club Darlington to run until the end of the 2010–11 season. He made his debut in the Football League two days later as a half-time substitute as Darlington lost 2–0 at Northampton Town.
In September 2010 he joined Northern League club Spennymoor Town on what turned out "an impressive month"'s loan, scoring three goals from six games (one from five in the League). Moore was part of Darlington's FA Trophy winning side, playing all 120 minutes against Mansfield Town on 7 May 2011. He was not offered a new contract and was released by Darlington a week later.
In July 2011, Moore went on trial at Gateshead. He played in five pre-season friendlies before signing an initial six-month contract on 27 July 2011. He made his Gateshead debut as a second-half substitute on 13 August in their 3–2 win over Kidderminster Harriers at Aggborough. He scored his first goal for Gateshead in his first start 10 days later in a 3–1 win against Southport at Haig Avenue. On 31 December 2011, Moore had his contract extended until the end of the season. Moore was released by Gateshead on 30 April 2012. Moore joined Barrow in August 2012.
