Clifford
Tarr joined Mossley as an amateur in 1922 making 5 appearances in the 1921-22
season but was understudy first to Ernie Moores and then Jackie Darley and
he returned to play for Mossley West Lads, returning to Mossley to play
in their newly formed reserve team in 1923. It wasn't until Darley's retirement that Tarr got an extended run in the team and he made 40 appearances in the 1926-27 season scoring 11 goals. A direct and tricky winger who's favourite trick was to knock the ball past his marker and run around the other side of him, he was selected that season to represent the Northern Counties against the Southern Counties at Dulwich scoring the only goal. |

Central defender Paul Taylor was signed by Benny Phillips from Manchester amateur side Connelly's late in the 1997-98 season after previously playing for Chorley, Frickley Athletic and Radcliffe Borough and became an instant hit with his controlled aggressive defending. Taylor made his Mossley debut against Kidsgrove Athletic on 1st April 1998 and the following season settled into the side partnering summer signing Ian Phillips. A season which saw Taylor win the first of his three Supporters Player of the Year awards as the team lost out on promotion to Workington in a hear-breaking final game of the season. When Ian Phillips’ career was tragically ended by injury in September 1999 Taylor found a new defensive partner in the classy Mark Paver as the by now team captain helped Mossley to a quarter final place in the FA Vase where the Lilywhites went out to eventual winners Deal Town. |

| The 2000/01 season saw Taylor win his second Supporters Player of the Year award as he and Paver were again outstanding in the heart of the Mossley defence. The following season saw Benny Phillips depart as manager and Ally Pickering appointed in his place. Taylor kept his place whilst acquiring a new central defensive partner in the impressive shape of former Woodley Sports big man Mark Phillips. Taylor was voted Player of the Year for a third time. The 2002/03 season again saw Taylor skipper the siude as they again reached the quarter finals of the FA Vase, again losing to eventual winners in AFC Sudbury. 2003 also saw Taylor pick up silverware as he captained the team to a 2-1 Worthington NWCL Final victory over Clitheroe at Bury FC’s Gigg Lane. The 2003/04 season saw Jason Beckford replace Pickering as manager, but the now long serving Taylor still retained his place in the team as the side earned promotion to the UniBond NPL despite losing the title to Clitheroe due to an administrative error. Having reached his mid 30’s Taylor made just 13 appearances in the UniBond League having lost his place to the emerging Danny Meadowcroft before departing for Woodley Sports in October 2004. He had later spells with Oldham Town and Ramsbottom United before playing the last games of his career whilst serving as assistant manager at Prestwich Heys. |
