It really isn't about Allen, he and O'Hare are covering a huge area of the pitch as Sheaf and Kelly sat so deep. Allen's running of the ball is intelligent. Bapaga would face the same problems he is.
It's a strange line up but the idea that he's throwing the game is false. But then again plenty on here said Norwich was a "free hit" and now when Robins seems to show a similar mentality you're up in arms. Funny crowd.
Case numbers and admissions going in the right direction most certainly, and as much as its frustrating I think most of the country being in T3 is the correct call, not just for COVID but it will help to avoid flu outbreaks too.
