Dave Carr

David Carr Date of Birth: Jan 31, 1957

David was another player whose career at Luton was somewhat compromised by his ability to play in several positions. Aylesham (Kent) born, David came to Luton as a trainee and signed professional forms in January 1975 all the time learning from reserve team coach David Pleat.

After making his league debut on the final day of 1976/77, David went on to make 43 appearances in seven different positions spread over the next two seasons.

A £20,000 transfer to Lincoln saw him miss only one match in his first three seasons at Sincil Bank as the Imps won promotion from Division Four. A season at Torquay then followed before he returned to his native Kent.

David sadly died in June 2005, age 48, following a brave fight against cancer.
