After scoring on his Hammers debut, against Kettering Town in September 1903, Allison went on to make 156 Southern League appearances for the club, scoring seven goals. He also made nine appearances in the FA Cup. He played his last game for West Ham on 10 April 1909, a 3-1 home victory against Watford.
