Jason Beckford was born in Manchester on 14th February 1970. A former striker with Manchester City, Birmingham City, Stoke City, Millwall and Northampton Town, his career was ended prematurely by injury and he arrived at Mossley after coaching Bolton Wanderers Academy side. He was appointed assistant manager in June 2002 and following Ally Pickering's shock departure in July 2003, he was appointed team manager, leading Mossley top promotion back to the UniBond League in his first season in charge. In 2003/04 Mossley won promotion back to the UniBond Premier as Division One champions in 200/06 but, following Mossley's relegation after just one hugely disappointing season in the NPL top flight Beckford resigned. After leaving Mossley in April 2007, he returned to Bolton in 2008 as part of the club's restructured youth academy, and also worked as the under-16 coach at Oldham Athletic. In August 2012, he moved to Canada to work as Newmarket Soccer Club's technical director.
