Yorke was on fire when Dalian Atkinson was injured in 93 then, Big Ron brought a clearly not fit Dalian back for the Coventry match. Result 0-0, while Old Trafford went into a period that started 'Fergie Time'
I'm not bitter.

If I had to pick my all time Villa 11, Yorke would stand a very good chance of being up front, probably alongside Withe.
Terrible for him to leave, but one of the best players I’ve seen down the Villa.

I've seen lots of our finest leave going back as far as Tony Hateley, but Yorke going was a real sliding doors moment.
The gap really started to open up with what was then the Sky 4. We missed the boat at that moment and spent the next 25 years without much hope of ever getting close.
These days John Gregory would probably be investigated for hate speech and/or incitement to violence for the comments he made.

Some players leave with dignity. Some leave without dignity. Some shit on the dictionary definition of dignity.
Yorke made a total cvnt of himself, repeatedly. He never played for us, as far as I'm concerned.
