Because before we signed him he was scoring a lot of goals else where.
Talking about Villa, talking about signing Boateng and Dublin now.'I loved going to Coventry, always came back with three points'.
I wonder if Keys and Gray thought their careers would ever come to this. Sucking up to the likes of John Gregory on a radio station that nobody ever listens too.
Listening to Gregory, he certainly failed to understand the politics of the Villa boardroom. Having been refused to buy Muzzy Izzet by Ellis, he called Steve Stride to request a board meeting. What did he expect from a meeting with Ellis, Ansell and Stride? He'd have been better off keeping at Ellis on a personal level.Gregory's right on one thing, Ellis never shared his and our ambtions for the club.

All the Gregory knockers should bear in mind with him in charge we were top of the league for a while , we got to a cup final and you could say we lost it due to a refereeing mistake awarding the free kick that should never have been, yes there was times it was dross but tell me another manager since he left who was better with the exception of MON in his early time with villa also more important than anything else he is a massive Villa fan try reading his tweets on twitter I still would have him back over all of the others we have had since and he would have got better look at Fergie
