TWO FORMER GUNS OF QPR TRYING TO PLY THEIR TRADE FOR LUTON

In sad news for Luton fans former Queens Park Rangers players Tony Thorpe and Stefan Moore are currently training with Luton, hoping to earn a permanent deal at Kenilworth Road. 

Thrope, who is now 34 has had a trial at the lowly Hatters after appearing for Swindon, Colchester, and Stevenage for whom he featured against the R's in a friendly back in 2006. 

Prior to Rangers, Luton was Thorpe's club of choice making more than 164 appearances over four spells with the Hatters, scoring 71 league goals. He has also had spells at Fulham as well as bristol city with loan spells including reading and Rotheram.

Thorpe has been heavily bashed in the media for his decision to move from Loftus Road to Luton, and the reaction to his impending deal will make for interesting paper news. 

This news comes after it was confirmed that Stefan Moore is also having another go after a string of career failures after a promising start along with his brother Luke at Aston Villa.

However whilst Moore has remained a quality player regularly featuring for Premiership teams and retaining his status by signing for West Brom, Stefan's talents have yet to been seen as he's worked his way through the football league ladder to the bottom of the pit, Luton Town. 

Following spells at Chesterfield, Millwall and Leicester on loan, Moore came to Rangers with great promise, with then manager Ian Holloway very excited about signing the youngster after poaching him from rivals Aston Villa. 

During his spell at Rangers he bagged just three goals, was played mainly on the left or right, and had a loan spell at Port Vale although he managed just one goal there, Vale boss Martine Foyle at the time opted against signing the strikers services. Since then he has been released to Port Vale and scored against trial club Luton Town.

Former Rangers assistant boss Mick Harford stated:

"He [Thorpe] has not done a lot of training. 

"He has been involved with a lot of small-time clubs and other aspects of the game. To play a game proper is different.

"It'll be good to have a good look at him. We will just keep a open eye on him for the minute and then we will see how things go."

This news comes after Queens Park Rangers and Luton Town F.C. midfielder Richard Langley has been looked at by Shrimpers Southend United.
