Craig Moore:
I don't have to introduce Craig. Craig spent two months in Greece. It was quite a hectic time. I heard he played a lot of games in those months. It's good that he can take a few weeks off and he's been training with Darren Burgess. He will be with us next week and he will be ready. It's great to have him back after everything that has happened to him in the past few years. Great guy, fantastic defender, very experienced.

AO Kavala
In January 2010 he moved to Greek side AO Kavala on an eighteen month contract. He debuted for Kavala on 10 January 2010 in a 1-0 loss against Asteras Tripoli.

After an off-field incident, it was announced on 31 March 2010 that his contract with Kavala had been terminated.

He played 10 games in 3 months and was then sacked!



I think it was to more of an issue with his wages. I saw an interview with Aad De Mos at the time, the coach of Kavala. He categorically enunciated Moore was his best player at Kavala.

Because of this he was made captain by De Mos, but the club president sacked Moore.
