Whether you like xG or not, there's little doubt that the goal should have been prevented by Allsop. It was a game changing moment and they scored again 2 minutes later while we were licking our wounds. We could have won that hadn't it been for a goalkeeping cock up, so there's 3 points off your 6 just for starters.
He certainly was at fault in certain matches but you also can't just rubbish the clean sheets he was a part of just because there wasn't some great save we remember.

He was a part of getting those points, particularly when our forward line could barely score in most matches. We relied heavily on the defence, him in included to scrape as many points as possible.

I prefer alnwick, but he should do better with both of covs goals last week. Slow for the first, limp wrist for the second. Allsop rightfully would have got shit for it.
