Tranmere striker Ian Thomas-Moore has joined npower League Two promotion-chasers Rotherham for an undisclosed fee. The 34-year old began his career at Prenton Park after progressing through the youth system and enjoyed spells at Nottingham Forest, Stockport, Burnley, Leeds and Hartlepool. He returned to Rovers in January 2008 and scored 38 goals in 140 appearances in his second spell at the club, but will join his father and Millers boss Ronnie Moore at Rotherham. Tranmere manager Les Parry said: "I'm sorry to see Ian leave us but Rotherham have been tracking him for some 18 months. "We have been negotiating an extended contract with Ian for some months. Unfortunately, we were not able to come to an agreement and he has decided to take the opportunity presented from Rotherham. "Ian has been a great servant to Tranmere Rovers and I have enjoyed a close relationship with him as both a physio and manager. I'd like to thank him for his time at the club and wish him all the best for the future."
