The question is what to do with the rest.

Can any of the allotmenteers tell you if the neglected plot was very grassy? If so, you might have wireworm problems with spuds for the first 2-3 years (sorry).
As for other plants, the Gardening Direct website has a good search tool from its veggie plants tab. You can choose the time of year to plant/sow and see what it comes up with - obviously they only show what they sell but it's a very quick guide to what's possible.
Happy harvesting.
