| Christopher Anthony Allen (born 18 November 1972) is an English professional football coach and former player.
A former England under-21 international midfielder, he started his career at Oxford United in 1991, playing 181 games in five years, helping to send the club on their way back to the First Division in 1995–96 before he signed with Nottingham Forest for a £400,000 fee. He played 26 Premier League games for Forest, though he played little part in the club's 1997–98 First Division promotion campaign. Instead, he was loaned out to Luton Town and Third Division promotion winners Cardiff City, before he was allowed to sign with Port Vale in March 1999. His career diminished in brief spells with Stockport County and Brighton & Hove Albion before he featured for non-League sides Dover Athletic, Aldershot Town and North Leigh. He retired from playing in 2010, having helped North Leigh to win promotion from the Hellenic Football League in 2007–08.
He worked as a coach at Oxford United from 2010 to 2020 and was appointed as manager of North Leigh in November 2022. Wikipedia text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License - Full article |
