Tyler’s ringing endorsement for McAllister signing
The 31-year-old put pen to paper on a loan deal until the end of the campaign from Newport County on Wednesday.
Tyler knows all about the forward’s prowess in front of goal as McAllister scored the winner for Crawley Town against Luton last season.

“He can hold it up, he’s a big physical presence, can defend in our box and attack the ball in their box.
“A few of the lads have played against him and played with him. I’ve played against him a few times, so I know what he’s all about.
“Hopefully he can get straight on board with us and be in the squad Saturday.”

“Crowy (Danny Crow) has done unbelievably well, he’s been working his socks off and got his just rewards.
“We’ve got Amari (Morgan-Smith) coming back as well. It’s all good for the next few weeks. Hopefully everyone can stay fit and we can make a big push.”
