[edit] Career

Gore began his career at Wimbledon, making his only appearance for the club in the 2001–02 season as a substitute in a 6–2 defeat to Grimsby Town. In the 2003–04 season Gore was sent on a one-month loan to non-league St Albans City, playing once; a one-month loan to Peterborough United^[1], where he was an unused substitute; then finally to Conference National side Barnet on a season-long loan, where he made a more successful 19 league appearances.^[2]

After being released from Wimbledon at the end of the season, Gore signed for Barnet permanently on a one-year contract^[3], and was a member of their Conference-winning side in the 2004–05 campaign. He was released at the end of the season, signing for Stevenage Borough^[4], but played just two games before being released yet again.

Gore then dipped into relative footballing obscurity, playing for Conference South clubs Havant & Waterlooville and Maidenhead United, as well as Isthmian Premier side East Thurrock United.^[5][6] Whilst at Maidenhead, BBC London's Non League Show nominated Gore as one of the top-four goalkeepers of 2008 plying their trade in non-league football.^[7]

After being released by Maidenhead in the summer of 2009, Gore was offered a trial with Conference side Luton Town by manager Mick Harford, who was a coach at Wimbledon at the time Gore was on the fringes of the first-team. He signed an initial one-month contract with Luton on 7 August, acting as an understudy to Mark Tyler.^[8] On 12 September 2009, his contract was extended for a further month.^[9] He made his debut for Luton in the FA Cup in a 3–3 draw with Rochdale, and kept a clean sheet in a 2–0 replay victory four days later.^[10]
