Bio Extra

Came from Chesterfield where he had been the only part-time player in the English league, with the reputation of a midfielder who could score goals, which he was more than able to demonstrate in a struggling Thistle side, under Murdo MacLeod. When John McVeigh succeeded MacLeod, Moss was one of the out of contract players at Firhill. Despite an excellent offer from Thistle, Moss received a financially lucrative offer from Falkirk and as per the terms of his contract with Thistle, moved to Brockville on a free transfer. He continued to bang in the goals for Falkirk before signing for Dunfermilne.
