Sold for an undisclosed fee
Good riddance. Not even DML could defend him.
His attitude meant that the club got £250k, so it was actually a good thing. That was initially a joke but also, it makes sense now :hehe:Quote:

A lot of people thought he was OK and that Bulut would use him, as I said I would be amazed if he kept him and if Bulut kept him he must be a terrible judge of a keeper, thankfully Bulut passed that test with flying colours!
Runarsson made a better save yesterday in one game than Allsop has made the whole time here.
Hopeless keeper Thank God he's Hull's problem now, can't wait to play them.
Praise be. He was a liability.
You got that wrong mate.The fee is 250 packets of Liquorice Allsorts.Quote:

Youd be wrong. Hes already kicked off in another thread having a go at anyone criticising him and launching a defence.Quote:

He isn't, there's a reason he almost had 3 back to back relegationsQuote:

Excellent news. He's rubbish.
I have seen this man try to kick a ballQuote:

One of the worst keepers we have had since our promotion to the Championship I would say.
Possibly so but he isn't the reason why we have struggled last few seasons in my opinionQuote:

Wasn’t he brought in by Morison as he was good with the ball at his feet (which he was) and so suited the initial plan but then fell out of favour when various different managers wanted to be more direct?Quote:

Most managers want a keeper that is good at keeping the ball out of their own net. Allsop was terrible at that aspect.Quote:

As mentioned earlier in the thread though, the save Runarsson made from that free kick last night was probably better than any Allsop made in his year with us. I didn’t think we’d get rid of him and, if our manager is to be believed, I’m not sure he was planning to let Allsop leave, but, as I’ve mentioned before, there were far too many times where, instinctively, I muttered “could the keeper have done better there?” when we conceded goals last season.Quote:

In my opinion, by normal Championship standards and also by the standards of the other keepers we’ve had at the club since City returned to this level twenty years ago, he’s rubbish. And I’m very glad he’s gone because I couldn’t stand watching him.
David Marshall had some crazy moments which gave goals to the opposition
A great shot stopper though so he got out of jail
Neil Alexander's fantastic save v Brian Tinnions header at Ashton Gate in the play off semis .......cancelled out by plenty of bonkers times when he lost his head
It's like the scales of justice
I’m just back from Hull, I drove the useless bugger there myself:hehe:
Did he let the contract drop from his hands at any stage?Quote:

I wonder how many recent City players that dml has suggested could do a job in the Premier League have actually ended up there?Quote:
