[edit] Career
Darren Moss started his career as a trainee at Chester. He made his debut for the club back in November 1998, in Chester's 2-1 loss against Brentford. During Moss' Chester career he played in forty-nine games for the clubs, in those games he received nine yellow cards and two red cards.
In June 2001, Moss joined Shrewsbury Town on a free transfer, making his Shrewsbury Town debut in August 2001 in Shrewsbury Town's 3-1 loss against Hartlepool. Moss spent several seasons at the club and scored several goals as well.
In March 2005, Darren Moss joined Dario Gradi's Crewe Alexandra, the north-west based club buying him for £170,000. He made his debut in Crewe's 4-1 defeat to Wolves. A mixture of injuries and then the signing of Jon Otsemobor from Rotherham in the January transfer window left Moss without a place in the first team.
This was until Otsemobor reject a new contract at Crewe, which put him on the transfer list and Gradi was looking for a replacement for the speedy full-back. The Crewe manager turned to Moss and made his first appearance as Otsemobor's replacement in the 4-2 win over Chesterfield in the Football League Trophy.
