Byron Moore

Port Vale Moore signed a two-year contract with League One side Port Vale in July 2014. His arrival at Vale Park increased the local rivalry between Vale and Crewe, especially as the two managers had recently exchanged a war of words via local newspaper The Sentinel following the decision of Steve Davis to criticize Micky Adams for a contract offer he described as "derisory" that Vale offered to his son Joe Davis. He was missing throughout the 2014–15 pre-season as he was on compassionate leave following the death of his brother. He made ten appearances before failing to get a game for three months following 8 November, but then forced himself back into first-team contention after an impressive substitute appearance at Bristol City on 10 February. Eleven days later he scored his first goal for the "Valiants" in a 3–0 win over Doncaster Rovers. He remained in the startling line-up until he picked up a groin strain in March.

On 11 August 2015, he scored the winning goal in a 1–0 victory over Championship club Burnley in the first round of the League Cup. He went on to score five goals in 41 appearances throughout the 2015–16 campaign and was named in the Football League Team of the Week and providing an assist for A-Jay Leitch-Smith in a 1–0 win at Blackpool on 9 January. He then departed on a free transfer after rejecting the club's offer of a new contract.

Bristol Rovers In June 2016, Moore joined League One club Bristol Rovers on a two-year contract. He made his debut for the "Pirates" on 13 September, in a 1–1 draw with Walsall at the Memorial Stadium. On 28 February 2017, Moore scored his first goal with a late equaliser to earn a 1–1 draw away to Bolton Wanderers. He scored his second goal for the club after just 11 seconds in a 1–0 away win at AFC Wimbledon – the fastest ever goal in Bristol Rovers' league history. However, he struggled for first-team appearances, and went from 8 November 2017 to 10 February 2018 without making it onto the pitch. He was released by manager Darrell Clarke at the end of the 2017–18 season.

Bury On 4 June 2018, Moore signed for newly relegated League Two side Bury. Manager Ryan Lowe, a former teammate at Crewe Alexandra, described his signing as a "big coup". On 15 September, he scored his first two goals for the club in a 2–1 win at Swindon Town, earning himself a place on the EFL Team of the Week. He scored a total of eight goals in 23 starts and 21 substitute appearances as the "Shakers" secured automatic promotion at the end of the 2018–19 season, before quitting his contract 12 months early over non-payment of his wages.

Plymouth Argyle On 23 July 2019, he signed with League Two side Plymouth Argyle, becoming the fifth player from financially troubled Bury to follow manager Ryan Lowe from Gigg Lane to Home Park that summer. He made his "Pilgrims" debut in a 3–0 victory over former club Crewe Alexandra on the opening day of the 2019–20 season. He scored his first goal for Plymouth in an EFL Trophy tie against former club Bristol Rovers on 3 September. In January, Plymouth Herald reporter Chris Errington wrote that "quietly, almost unnoticed, Byron Moore is going about having a very good season for Plymouth Argyle." The next month, manager Ryan Lowe praised his versatility and consistency. Plymouth went on to win promotion at the end of the 2019–20 season, with Moore scoring six goals from 36 appearances. In Plymouth's first season back in League One he made 43 appearances, scoring once, but was released by the club at the end of the season. Lowe said that it was a difficult decision to release Moore but that "he hasn't performed as well as he probably would have liked and I would have liked."

Torquay United On 29 October 2021, Moore signed for National League side Torquay United after having impressed manager Gary Johnson on trial. He was on a "cut-price" three-month deal at Plainmoor. He made his debut the following day when he came off of the bench in a 1–1 draw at Wrexham.

AFC Telford United On 11 February 2022, Moore joined National League North side AFC Telford United on a deal until the end of the 2021–22 season. Manager Paul Carden explained that Moore was looking for a club close to his home in Crewe. He scored one goal in 15 appearances for the "Bucks" in the second half of the season. Moore featured 36 times in the league during the 2022–23 campaign as Telford were relegated in last place. He played 32 games in the 2024–25 campaign, including the play-off final victory over Kettering Town that secured promotion. He was released at the end of the season.

Nantwich Town On 6 June 2025, Moore joined Northern Premier League Division One West side Nantwich Town. He signed a new contract in January 2026, having scored later winners against Avro in the FA Cup and Shifnal Town in the league.

Style of play Crewe Alexandra manager Steve Davis criticised Moore for his lack of goalscoring ability during the course of his time at the club, though stated that this was the player's only weakness as a winger. In January 2013 he said that "he works very hard in training but there's just something missing with him". In June 2014 he stated that Moore had the potential to become a "key player" but was still young enough to improve further.

In the 3–5–2 formation utilised by manager Ryan Lowe at first Bury, and then Plymouth Argyle, Moore's versatility and stamina saw him utilised as both a striker and as a wing-back, often starting up front, before moving to wing-back as a result of second-half substitutions. Lowe commented, "He can play left side, he can play right side, he can play centre forward... he looks absolutely shattered on 60 minutes and then when you put him over to left wing or right wing, he just motors again."

Personal life Born in England, Moore is of Jamaican descent.
