Moore was born in Newcastle upon Tyne and played for Sunderland, where he partnered Henry Martin on the left, having previously played for Seaton Delaval.[3]

Moore played for West Ham United between 1922 and 1929. He was an ever-present in the side that won promotion back to Division One in 1922–23, and played in the famous White Horse Final of 1923. He received full international recognition with his first cap for the English main team against Sweden on 24 May 1923, scoring twice in a 3–1 victory. Previously he had already played three matches for the England Amateurs against Belgium, Denmark and Sweden, all of which prior to the war, having netted four goals.[4][5]
