Fred Allen

Fred Allen Date of Birth: Apr 2, 1875

Born in Luton in 1875, Fred played for local side Luton Terriers where he was regarded as a ‘shining light’ with ‘accurate heading, clever passing and tackling sending spectators into raptures.’ This led to him joining the Town in 1892.

Fred became a regular in the side with a respectable scoring tally but left for St Albans in 1895 after the Town’s first season in the new Southern League. He came back in 1902 for a spell but mostly played for the Town’s reserve side.

Fred passed away in Eltham in 1963.
