The only other thought I had was footballer Victor Moses, Moses sounding like 'Moseys' as in 'mosey on down', walk at an amble.

Having looked into the etymology a bit it cites 'moseys' from 'vamoose', predominantly American Southwest usage (i.e. in former Spanish speaking territories) along with other 18th and 19th century cowboy Spanish borrowings (e.g corral, buckaroo). So it might be right.

I love Bridlington.

As for the new clue, no idea. Perhaps Peter Siddle?

There used to be some cricketer called Albert Dipper ( fairground attraction - big dipper! ) Clearly not him though.

I assume a contemporary player , I'll have another think.
