Allaway is 6’-2” tall and also had spells on loan at Walsall and Grimsby but has still not made his league debut. Brian Talbot said, “I’ve seen Allaway play a couple of times and I thought he did quite well. He was obviously very promising as a teenager but it didn’t work out at Leeds. We’ll take a look at him for the rest of this week.”
