Arthur Geoffrey Moreland (29 November 1914 – 1996) was an English professional footballer who made 11 appearances in the Football League playing for Birmingham and Port Vale.[2] He played as a centre forward.
Moreland was born in Wolverhampton, Staffordshire. He made his name in non-League football as a target-man with Prestwood Amateurs and Stafford Rangers before deciding to try his luck with Swindon Town.[3] He played just once for Swindon, scoring their goal in a 2–1 defeat to Millwall in the Third Division South Cup.[4] He signed for First Division club Birmingham in the 1938 close season,[3] and made his debut in the opening match of the 1938–39 season, a 2–1 home defeat to Sunderland on 27 August 1938. He kept his place for another couple of games but played only once after that[5] before moving on to Port Vale in November 1938,[3] where he scored three goals in seven league appearances.[2] He departed after war in Europe broke out, most probably in the autumn of 1939.[6]
