This appears to be a hoax.
- A simple google search for Allen+Scotting yields only links to obviously unrelated law firms.
- A search of the Charlton Athletic website yields no mention of a footballer of this name.
- There is no mention of a footballer of this name on the Gillingham Football Club website. Shirt58 (talk) 12:13, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
- This article is definitely not a hoax. There is a link in the article (and has been ever since it was first created) to Barry Hugman's site, where the player is clearly listed as having played professionally for Gillingham. He also has a listing in this book and a full-blown profile in this book, either of which I am happy to scan and send to you. -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:36, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
