David Albert Moss was born on Friday, 15th November, 1968, in Doncaster, South Yorkshire. The 6' 2 (13st 3lbs) forward signed for Murdo MacLeod's Thistle on Friday, 13th September, 1996, having most recently been with Scunthorpe United. Aged 27, he made his debut appearance on Saturday, 14th September, 1996, in a 1-1 draw at home to Stirling Albion in the SFL First Division. David scored his first two goals for Thistle on Saturday, 21st September, 1996, in a 4-4 draw away to Airdrieonians in the SFL First Division. He scored the last of his 11 goals on Saturday, 3rd May, 1997, in a 2-1 win at home to Falkirk in the SFL First Division. He played his last game for the club on Tuesday, 29th July, 1997, in a 3-0 friendly defeat at home to Hull City, having appeared as a Jag on 36 occasions. David's club-list included Boston United, Doncaster Rovers, Chesterfield, Scunthorpe United, Partick Thistle, Falkirk, Dunfermline Athletic, Ayr United, Swansea City and Hednesford Town. |
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. |
