My favourite Villa manager we’ve had, he had us playing some great football & signed some cracking players, I remember hearing on the radio on the morning he’d resigned I was absolutely gutted.
Love how he still talks about Villa as *WE*
*JOHN GREGORY HE’S ONE OF OUR OWN!*
💜💙
Rangers fan here. Brilliant interview! What a legend JG. Funny as hell, down-to-Earth, and a great storyteller.
I am a Palace fan but I loved watching Gregory’s Villa. Especially their European nights under him. What a great interview and a really good guy
ye especially 98-2000 that team we had was quality but went downhill after fa cup 2000 final defeat to chelsea
What a bloke. I have so much love and respect for Johnnie Greg, easily my favorite ever Villa manager. The fact he told it how it was, was a breath of fresh air & his passion for the club was unrivalled. I've read his book about 10 times so great to be able to hear some of this being told by the man himself 💜🩵
What a brilliant episode love John Gregory's time at Aston Villa love listening to him talking about his time in football.
Followed Villa since 82, John is still my favourite manager, loved the bloke
When Browny tried to Phil Neville him off and he came back with Rooney
Love this. Met John in July in Windsor with his family. A proper gentleman, great pod. Keep it up
UTV
Thanks Parky seeing you in that attire has made me roll over on the missus for the first time in 23 years!!
Thought i felt a small prick in my back 😂😂
😁
Came here to say it made me roll over on his missus too, Parky!
Week starting off brilliant once again. Thanks again guys.
Was not expecting John to be such a great funny bloke! Brilliant episode! Mental what the media can push on people!
Great episode. Totally changed my opinion on JG after this. Used to think he was outspoken, elitist and over opinionated but thought he came across superbly during this interview. He clearly knew how to get a tune out of some of teams. Not sure if age has softened him but found him really enjoyable to listen to. Well done all in this episode.
WHAT.JUST BECAUSE YOU FOUND OUT HE EARNED A GRAND A WEEK
Tell ya what, he looks amazing for a 70 year old!!!! Loved JG being our manager, was a blessing. To go from little to him was a continuation of good times as a Villa fan. Great episode lads UTV
When he mentioned at the start about when as a player he left AVFC in 1978 I roughly worked out he was around 70 but absolutely agree with you he looks a lot younger than a decrepit 70 year old...!
One of the best interviews lads, cheers
Love the Gareth Barry bit when he was 17! What a player (from an Everton fan).
Loved it 👏🏽 but I loved Stan! I saw him play for 4 times and he scored in 3 of them! What a player
Love John Gregory!! Proper Gaffer!!
He was excellent at villa, along with dean smith and king Unai, my fave managers, that team he had and football he played was excellent
Great interview. Gave a great insight into the game.
What a brilliant video, I was never sure of him as a manager as he came across as arrogant, but I was that impressed I would have him as manager for my team straight away, if any chairman are struggling at the moment they need to get him in their club straight away
Same! I always thought he was chocolate, but he comes across really well x
He was absolutely amazing for my club as a player, assistant manager & manager, he’s so ingrained in *Aston Villa FC* personally he’s my favourite Villa manager of my life time.
Enjoyed that, some great times under JG at the Villa - as he says the turgid FA Cup final in 2000 was a huge disappointment though, just didn't turn up.
Used to think he was an arrogant, tosser but totally got it wrong. Came across as engaging, insightful and honest. I always check during the podcast to see how accurate the guest is and he's spot on about everything so that tells me he's honest.
Really appreciate it lads cheers.
I met Alan Devonshire at Didcot town on Tuesday, top man and a West Ham legend!!!
Met John Gregory and Mark Lillis when they took Chennaiyin to Hua Hin, Thailand for a training camp. We had a nice chat about footie...nice blokes.
My uncle played a few league games for Huddersfield with Lilis he played in the game he scored 3 penalties
One of the best ones yet.
What John says about wanting Izzit reminds me of our team now where we have Telimans and Bailey who can't get a game and both pushing the starting 11 for a place
Top bloke
I was mascot for Barnsley he was at the game got to meet him and he spoke with me and my dad . Had a great team at villa
Never had transfer windows back then bro 1:06:50
John Gregory a true villa man
Connecting the dots (stories and names) with some of these podcast guests now. Bring on Blackwell!
I was young when JG was our manager so I never really took him in, great episode and insight into his career and management. UTV
What a great podcast. Got Villa playing lovely football. His managerial career seemed to fizzle out. He's looking very well for nearly 70
Arsene Wenger, what a tight bastard
Lads, I'm an absolute fan of the pod. But can you show us viewers how you do the scripts and on how you negotiate guests on to the show. Give us watchers a proper inside scoop! Keep up the good work.
Better late than never, great stuff lads
Very enjoyable 👍
Best one yet !!! What a bloke, great insight, super podcast mo fo's keep it up !!!!
I think John came across very well here. Good luck to the bloke.
Would have loved to have herd about what happend with Bosko Balaban and the Angel Transfer too
I find it hard to believe the Newcastle girls football team had to pay for their kit (Ashley) the owner must have been something else as they represented the club even the highly paid players never chipped in unbelievable
Loved this! Villa legend 100%
Went out with him and his father also John in Brighton when he was there 1980 if I remember rightly. His dad played for West Ham and scunthorpe if memories serve me right
Came across UTC segment on Insta and laughed to the Yorke story so came to watch all of it. Gregory is a great storyteller albeit factually incorrect at times (Bosnich went to United for the 1999/2000 season).
Sure bosnich was still at villa when Yorke signed for united. He only went united after Schmeichel left
1999 Bosnich signed for Utd, Yorke signed in 1998 so you are correct
That's correct but bosnich had already been at man utd before, 99 was his second spell so was probably telling Yorke how good it was and to go
Bosnich was at United as a kid in '89 & '90, but they couldn't hold onto him when his student visa expired & he couldn't secure a work permit.
Didn't expect to like JG as I was never sure of him at Leicester. However he's a top bloke, can't believe he's 69!
He’s got his timeline wrong with the Yorke thing. Yorke left for United the year before Bosnich!
I remember JG booting advertising boarding .. that’s proper pissed off when you boot off at the ads 😂
I fail to understand why people like John Gregory aren't actively coaching in British football nowadays.
Would have liked to hear more about his work abroad.
John Gregory what a fine man
I’m not a villa fan but I always liked John Gregory. You can see he massively regrets walking out on them it effectively was the end of his managerial career
As a massive Villa fan I was seriously choked the morning I heard on the radio he’d resigned I was absolutely gutted he’d built a very strong side & was so ingrained into our club with his history as a player, assistant manager then manager.
John Gregory *WHAT A BLOKE!*
Great interview. UTC Missed the time villa were top of the league in November by a few points and after thrashing Southampton 4-1 he got the team together for a photo on the pitch as if they’d won the league then lost the next week. I think from February they went into free fall and finished 6th
1:06:37 onwards, there was no transfer window back then, it never came in until 2002-2003
Great pod. Really enjoyed Gregory.
PS. Beer 52 - That Crew Republic Drunken Sailor is an incredible beer.
Excellent show once again.
Great Interview as ever👊
Best 3 things John did was to join Villa the worst 3 things was to leave Villa !
Bosnich wasn't at United when Yorke signed
Fantastic Video as normal guys. Brilliant!
If Gareth Barry had another yard or two of pace he would have been a world class player.
Bit disappointing there were no stories from his time in Isreal, Kazakhstan and India.. Why was there nothing mentioned?
Great episode lads...Like or loathe JG he says it as it is...Merson tells a good story on the circuit about his exit from Villa via JG and about a large amount of money 💰 he asked for and didn't think JG would pay him...By the time training was done all the cash was stacked up on his desk ready 4 Merson to get and feck off...lol...😂😂😂
Merson left under GT
@VillaBoys123 story the same then wrong manager...my bad...🙄 was positive it was JG but it was some time ago that I listened to Merson at an after dinner event so I've clearly mixed up the manager who did it...🙄🤔😂
@bantamNeil12 Yes I know the story. GT asked him how much and be said 100k. Boom there is the cheque. He should have asked for more as he had a million pound deal ...and we should never have let him go. Horrific season
There are a lot of takes from this podcast of football back in the early 2000’s that have carried forward into football now & the Premier League/FA/EFL should have done more about it to make football better instead of allowing for the mess that we’re dealing with now!!
From Deadly Doug’s 2nd in command turning up at Wycombe’s hotel on the evening of a match to tell Gregory that they want him instead of approaching Wycombe first & making their interest know, for Villa/Gregory to then bleat about Man Utd tapping Dwight Yorke up!! We still constantly hear of players being lined-up for potential transfers to other clubs & that they’ve already accepted x-amount in wages yet a transfer fee seemingly hasn’t been agreed, so how has any personal terms been agreed? And yet nothing is done about it!
And then when John Gregory walks into Derby & they are £30m in debt & struggling to 10-15 years later & they are in an even worse state!! Why haven’t the footballing authorities been much stricter & kept a closer eye on the clubs finances?!? And this doesn’t just go for Derby but Portsmouth, Wigan, Charlton, Birmingham & Bolton (and I’m sure there are others) that have a fairly recent history of having dodgy owners & finances!! Why isn’t something brought in to protect these clubs better so that they can’t go into debt, especially so soon after they’ve dealt with a previous problem.
Maybe if stricter rules were put in place it could have helped their long term prospects, the football authorities have a responsibility to everything involved with a football club, the staff, the supporters & the wider community!!
We will be losing a lot more clubs soon.
Great episode lads. Gregory a top gaffer
Fucking love the Union Jack chest table 💙🇬🇧
superb listen
Such a great guy
25 quid is about 140 quid now.
Always liked him growing up as a football fan I also remember the quote. Looking good for 69!
Not what I expected at all, some some reason I though he was going to be a full of himself arsehole.
What a brilliant guy, great episode lads, keep them coming
The Guys an absolute legend,
He’s adored down the Villa form the player, assistant manager, to manager.
Great Bloke 💜💙
JOhn Gregory would have been perfect for Manchester United after Sir Alex; he has the charisma and football knowledge
Never had transfer deadlines when yorke moved amazing how tales grow legs over the years even from someone who it centres around
Man Utd needed to sign Yorke before September 1st so he'd be registered for the Champions League Group Stage that season, he's probably referencing that with the wrong terminology.
There’s famous footage of Don Revie giving his Leeds players a soap massage
His name was Donna at the weekends
I'm sure we're missing some amazing stories from his time as QPR manager...
And pompey, his first managers job
@@Tutts93 No-one ever threatened the Pompey chairman with a gun?
@superkjell you don't know about portsmouths owner history do you 😂😂
@@Tutts93 I know a little bit, but I'll do some reading!
@superkjell look up Sulaiman Al-Fahim, Alexandre Gaydamak and his dad Arcadi and lastly Vladimir Antonov
Love ya John best villa manager for me
Loved that. Class.
Just thinking about the villa , who was the player Tony something who was sponsored by a tracksuit company ?
He wore a blue and orange trackie with black swirls on it … my brother had one
Tony Daley 😂
He was known for being very superstitious. A member of staff from one of his previous clubs was walking behind him in the corridor and JG pinned him against the wall and said "nobody walks behind me!". He was considered a bit weird. But retirement seems to have chilled him he's looking good for 69.
Nice fella good show
Came to Coventry city .in the late 80s When i was head chef. Ow no its that Scottish chef.😅
Muzzy was a very tidy player indeed.
from a united fan he always came across as a bit arrogant when he was a manager but after watching this he seems an ok bloke
He definitely wasn’t arrogant as our manager, he’s a great bloke absolutely loved down the villa.
Legend and top bloke
BRILLIANT
Heard John Gregory treated some players really bad, especially YTS players.
Imagine Merse in the smartphone age...
Great pod, and thankful that Parky didn't jump up and start dancing, I won't apologise for not liking his ridiculous TikTok videos
As a cov fan it was hard to like him, not for signing Dublin, but for a dopey quote he made 'Alex Ferguson has made dublin the premier league player he is today' (he played 12 games for them), this was quite a decent listen. Brian Little was a better boss than him though.
No mention of his time at Pompey, when he was JG puppet.
No talk of when he was qpr manager 😂
John comes across as a decent guy. But as a neutral fan I remember him playing some really boring tactics near the end of his time at Villa, 5 at the back, a lot of 1 - 0 wins, horrible to watch.
He was fantastic for us (villa) the football was never horrible to watch under him, he had us challenging for the title in 1998/1999 he sold Dwight Yorke in the summer of 98 signed Merson, Dublin, Watson, Stone, Thompson & totally transformed the club from the previous season, he was brilliant for Villa.
@@EmiMartinezVillaLegend agreed Kev must’ve watched a different manager, some of the football we played at Tim’s was brilliant, especially when the magic man signed
Didn’t even talk about the title challenge of 98/99
Arsene sending 25 quid 😂😂
I wonder if John remembers being bundled into a back of a dinky Renault Cleo in mickleover derby , stinking of weed so the media didn’t get hold of him after his FA hearing 😐… true story
Ok....
Them curtains
QPR legend
*ASTON VILLA LEGEND!*
From player, to assistant manager, to manager 💜💙
Qpr fan, good player for us back in the day. Not best manager 😅
Grealish just debunked the story about him being taken off lol
JG should of took the 2 million and walked away
Doug could afford it and tbh with 2 million I’d of done punditry and bought a e type jag oh and a pub 😂
Lot of money back then
Can someone get Parky a pair of socks please
