Louis Moult

Northampton Town After a successful trial period where he scored twice in a pre-season match against Kettering Town, Moult signed a one-year contract with Northampton Town on 17 August 2012. Moult was handed the number 19 shirt and his first involvement was as an unused substitute against Rotherham. His debut came in a League Cup defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers. His one and only goal for Northampton came in a game against Port Vale, Moult spoke afterwards saying "I was a massive Stoke fan so to get the goal today was absolutely fantastic, you dream of moments like that and the fact it's come against Port Vale makes it that bit sweeter." After making just 13 appearances in his first six months, mainly from the bench, Moult was loaned out to Nuneaton Town. He was released by Northampton at the end of the 2012–13 season, making 13 appearances scoring once.

Scoring just once in 17 appearances, manager Kevin Wilkin was confident of the striker's ability to score goals, which was proven when Moult scored eight goals in the opening nine league games. He made his debut against Macclesfield Town where he also scored the winning goal. He was linked with many clubs at the end of the 2013–2014 season, as Nuneaton had spent the majority of it in the play-offs, before manager Wilkin departed for league rivals Wrexham and the side slipped to 13th.
