We have won our last four games against Luton, and have won six and drawn one of the last seven games. They last beat us in January 2007, and that was in the FA Cup, so it doesn't count as a game we expect to be competitive in. Luton have drawn three and won two of their last five, an unbeaten run that has moved them up to 9th in the table on 18 points. Their top scorer is Carlton Morris, on 6 goals followed by Elijah Adebayo with 2. Luke Freeman also has 1 so far this season, having joined them in July after being released by Sheffield United. I have said this before about other players who have left us, and quite possibly about Freeman, but when he left us I was so disappointed but in reality he hasn't achieved anywhere near as much as I'd have expected. Since leaving us in 2019 he's played 15 games for Sheffield United, 23 for Forest on loan, then 1 for Millwall on loan. Can't help but wonder if he/we'd be in a better place if he'd stayed. Seems only Eze has successfully made the step up, and is succeeding at the highest level. Comments below if you agree/disagree. As for us, I haven't been able to stop smiling every time I think of last Friday's win. Brilliant result that moved us up to third in the table, joint on points with the top 2. It was so good to get the win after Willock's injury, and the concern over where our goals would come from. Chair and Dykes are now both on 3 goals for the season, and they'll need to keep hitting the back of the net to make up for Willock's absence. It would also be great to see Roberts start chipping in with the odd goal. Team News QPR: Chris Willock is out, whilst Ethan Laird is touch-and-go, but Taylor Richards is back in contention. Luton Town: Cauley Woodrow and Reece Burke are out, whilst Gabe Osho could return Pre-match Talk Mick Beale (QPR head coach): “The players are training to such a high level and locked into their own personal development plans. “The players are focused and I’m asking them to maintain that energy, I think we can get better. We’re nowhere near where I think we can get to. "I want us to peak at the right time. The Championship is a tough league with real variety, and it’s important we find the answers.” Nathan Jones (Luton Town manager): “We haven’t got a good record against Queens Park Rangers and that needs to change. “It’s the perfect chance to do that, we’re both in decent form, both unbeaten in five, they are in wonderful form, they have very good players so it will be a tough game we know that. it’s another Championship game against tough opposition, it’s the same every week. “They are an excellent attacking side; they always have been. We know that they pose a real threat. ...enjoy all those who are making the trip, and as always...COME ON YOU SUPER HOOPSA!!!
Freeman was a good player for us, but I always got the impression that he thought he was better than he was. Also, he was forever throwing his arms in the air and complaining at team mates. Eze flourished when he left. Come on Rangers, stuff these.
I have 2 questions, firstly, why are there two early kick offs in your league on Saturday, are they both on TV? Secondly and possibly more importantly, was it one of you with the analogy that Carol Vorderman's fanny looks like a skydiver's face?
CAROL Vorderman looked sensational in a cut-out bikini top as she showed off her toned abs. The former Countdown star, 61, showcased her trim physique in a pair of denim hotpants. please log in to view this image 3 Carol Vorderman looked sensational in a crop top and denim hotpantsCredit: Instagram please log in to view this image 3 The 61-year-old star revealed that she has several 'special friends'Credit: instagram The mathematician flashed a big smile in a throwback photo from the summer. The TV favourite told fans that she missed basking in the glorious weather. She wrote: "SHORTS WEATHER. Officially over in this house...washed and put away today. Missing warmth already." Carol's fans were stunned by the sexy photo and raced to compliment the star.

Another posted: "Carol you are looking fantastic. Wow." A third said: "Look half your age, so amazing." The Countdown star's latest sexy selfie comes hot the heels of her revealing that she currently has "multiple partners". The TV presenter, who has been married in the past, says she's given up on the idea of monogamy in favour of having "special friends". Speaking on This Morning she said: "I have ignored the looking for one person and I have a number of what I've called 'special friends'." Speaking about the blokes, she continued: "They don't know each other, but they know about it. It's a very honest relationship. "One of them has gone on for many more years than my marriage. Yeah, it's over 10 years. Another is seven. "He's an astronaut. He rang me from the space station." Carol explained it was an attitude she had taken up since turning 50. She added: "They're not looking for love, they'e looking for companionship, looking for friendship, it may turn into love. "The age is really immaterial, but my experience suggests that somebody roughly in your age bracket. You have more in common." The star was first married to Christopher Mather, a Royal Navy officer, in 1985 when she was 24. The married ended after 12 months and she wed management consultant Patrick King in 1990.
I think in our case it’s because there is a history of trouble between us and Luton, and the police will have required the kick off time. Scousers turned up for a change tonight.
Just to let you all know, QPR have never dropped a point when I’m in Italy. Been here since 30th September and don’t leave until Saturday afternoon… it’s a sign I tell you.. Ask me nicely and I won’t come to LR for Cardiff or Wigan. Last home game for me was Peterborough in April. That too could be a sign…
Rested I think. We have 4 centre backs who have a good shout to be starters, and as you know, Beale knows how to get the most out of his resources.
