20 goal Le Fondre was left out of the 18 man squad for the 2-1 defeat, and after raging about the last minute controversial winner that cost his side a point, Moore explained why his talisman didn't travel.
"In the last few games he's looked jaded, so we rested him", said the gaffer to the press.
"We thought we'd come here with a different strategy and as far as that went it was fine but we just didn't get the break or the goal. I thought Adam needed a little break and he understands what the situation is and hopefully he'll be nice and fresh for the Bury game."
Moore also added that he would like to extend the deals of his loanees.
