Playing career

In May 2012 he was released by the club, along with 12 other players.[4] Two months later he was signed by Football League Two side Gillingham on an initial one-year deal, with the option of extending for a further season. He made his debut for Gillingham on 18 August in 3–1 win against Bradford City

On 31 October 2013 Allen was loaned to Tamworth.[5]

On 14 February 2014, Allen had his contract at Gillingham cancelled by mutual consent.[6] The following month he signed for Margate of the Isthmian League Premier Division.[7]

On 4 June 2015, Allen left Margate.[8]
