Alan Moore, born November 25, 1974 in Dublin, Republic of Ireland is an Irish midfielder whose most recent club was Sligo Rovers in the FAI National League.

Club career

Moore moved to Derry City after a short spell without a club as he had left Shelbourne FC in January, 2007 over pay disputes.

His previous clubs included Burnley, Barnsley and Middlesbrough. During his time at Middlesbrough, he was once described as "the Ryan Giggs of the north-east".

Moore returned home to Ireland during the summer of 2004 and signed for Shelbourne where he had an immediate impact on the team. In the UEFA Champions League qualifiers he scored away to KR Reykjavik to help secure a 2-2 draw that would see the team progress on away goals and in the Second Round he scored home and away against Hajduk Split who Shelbourne knocked out 4-3 on aggregate. Shelbourne were eventually knocked out by Deportivo La Coruña in the last round before the group stages.

By the end of 2004, Moore had helped Shelbourne retain the League of Ireland Premier Division title for the first time. In 2006, Moore won another League of Ireland championship medal as the Dublin side pipped Derry City to the title on goal difference.

Despite this, however, on the 5 March, 2007, Moore signed for Derry City to work with his former manager, Pat Fenlon once again. [" [http://www.derrycityfc.net/season/07/news/displaystory.php?storyid=48 Tidman and Moore sign] ", "CityWeb", 05 March, 2007.]

However he failed to settle at Derry and he signed for Sligo Rovers in February 2008 [http://www.eleven-a-side.com/eircomleague/irish_soccer_detail.asp?newsid=31230]

In July 2008 Moore, after hardly featuring in the first team, was released from his contract with Sligo Roversas part of a cost cutting exercise by the club.

International career

Moore won 8 caps for the Republic of Ireland.
