 Having been a St Johnstone fan all his life and being well known as the "local hero" by many of the club's fans, Moon gained the nickname "Mooner" and a chant was introduced, and he was widely known as a fans favourite.Despite injuries ruining his second season, he managed to make one more appearance from the bench during the 2005–06 campaign.The 2006–07 season saw Moon in a difficult situation, where he was too old to play for the under 19s, but not yet regarded as a first team player, and for that reason then manager Owen Coyle sent him on loan to Forfar Athletic, originally for 6 months, however the loan was extended on 31 December 2006 to run through until the end of the season.
