Rick EdwardsHOST
Oh, wow.
Rick EdwardsHOST
This allowed Gary McAllister to take a quick corner that nearly caught out the commentary defence.
Rick EdwardsHOST
To add to the general amazement of the situation, the gentleman on my left-hand side, in an attempt to catch the ball, placed a finger in between my head and the ball and I managed to dislocate his finger in the process.
Rick EdwardsHOST
He quickly wangled it back into its rightful position and we got back to watching another defeat on our journey to relegation from the Premier League.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
Ribeiro took squad number 10 and took it back to its roots.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
Gary McAllister had worn it with distinction since United's return to the top flight and Ribeiro shared his passing range and his dictatorial tendencies in midfield.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
But he also played with a sharp tackling temper off the left and looked as willing to square up for a fight as he was to score from long range.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
Combining all that with his short stature had some fans wondering if he could become the nearest thing to a modern John Giles.
Chris ScullHOST
Do you know what I think? It is weird when you look at it.
Chris ScullHOST
Gary McAllister steps up to take that penalty against England and it moves.
Chris ScullHOST
But you don't see
Josh WiddicombeHOST
that.
Chris ScullHOST
I'm not even joking.
Chris ScullHOST
This is what he says.
Chris ScullHOST
It's the CIA's fault that Gary McAllister missed the penalty.
Michael MardenHOST
What?
Craig CampbellHOST
That was good memories.
Craig CampbellHOST
From obviously your Liverpool career, I want to talk about some of the guys you played in that liverpool team with and we'll get some of your stories from the dressing room as well um but you talk about gary mcallister another scottish legend and he must he must have been about 40 at that time right playing in that team he was an old guy 37 maybe no 37.
Stéphane HenchozGUEST

Gregory VignalGUEST
No, you might be right.
Paddy McGuinnessHOST
But at your time at Leeds with someone like Cantona, would you put him as your number one? as a player skill just everything about him on the pitch or would you who would be your three your top three
Gordon StrachanGUEST
who I played with Brian Gary McAllister and it's hard because once you start you look down on below and you so many so
Paul ScholesHOST
many
Gordon StrachanGUEST
Gary McAllister was some player Gary was a top player a right top player because I think Eric Canton was a question and answer here in Manchester who's the best player you've ever played with so Oh, man, you ain't fine to expect yourself.
Gordon StrachanGUEST
Anyway, McAllister.
Gordon StrachanGUEST
So if you actually meet Gary, Gary will always tell you that before he introduces himself.
Dave TomlinsonGUEST
Shh.
Colin ShindlerHOST
Going back to John's relationship with Leeds, I mean, John had, in inverted commas, Gary McAllister, who was possibly the main spring of the championship-winning side of 1992.
Colin ShindlerHOST
A very fine player.
Colin ShindlerHOST
And was the Leeds that Ridsdale built built out of that Howard Wilkinson side, or did it change when Wilkinson left? Or what happened-
Dave TomlinsonGUEST
When you're not expecting it, that's when we're good.
Dave TomlinsonGUEST
As soon as you start believing you're gonna be there, that's when the collapse happens.
Colin ShindlerHOST
John, when Gary McAllister left Leeds, why did he leave and where did he go to? And what was his feeling about the club when he left it? Did he foresee any of this?
Jon HolmesHOST
He left, he left because he felt Howard had lost control.
Duncan FergusonGUEST
I went to be Strachan's house.
Duncan FergusonGUEST
I went to Gary McAllister's house as well, and they tried, they were, they were trying to get me to sign for Leeds.
Chris MoylesGUEST
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Duncan FergusonGUEST
So I was going round the Leeds.
Duncan FergusonGUEST
'Cause I went to the game at Ibrox, and I watched yous.
Duncan FergusonGUEST
And, uh, who scored your ...
Duncan FergusonGUEST
Somebody, was it Gary McAllister scored the first goal bang in the top corner for Leeds? You remember at Ibrox?
Chris MoylesGUEST
No, I don't.
John GilesGUEST
Uh, they did go on to win the league with, uh, uh, Howard Wilkinson in 1990.
John GilesGUEST
You know, with Gordon Strachan and Gary McAllister.
John GilesGUEST
We had Gary Speed, David Batty, Tony Greco, Chris White.
John GilesGUEST
A lot of, lot of terrific, Chris Warkness, terrific players.
Dion DublinGUEST
Um, and then, and then I went to...
Dion DublinGUEST
And I don't, I didn't know this at the time, but in the dressing room at Coventry, we had players like Gary McAllister, Gordon Strachan, Darren Huckerby, Noel Whelan, Ian Jess, Georgi Boytang- Steve Grisovich, you know-
Laura Kirk-FrancisHOST
Mm
Dion DublinGUEST
... proper-
Dion DublinGUEST
they say that I, I...
Dion DublinGUEST
And this is what they tell me now, they say that you came in and you changed the, the, the quality of the training because the standards were set so high for me.
Dion DublinGUEST
When I was at United, I set the same standards, um, at Coventry, and Gary McAllister did it.
Dion DublinGUEST
Gordon Strachan's standards were high anyway, so.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
But there was tension in his Leeds team between his reliance on experienced players who would help him sleep at night, Paul Beasley and Richard Jobson, and the sort of expensive thrill-seeking that had eventually led managing director Bill Fotherby to Thomas Brolean.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
Brolin had scored his first goal at Hillsborough, the ball bouncing off his head as he fell to the floor, but it was proving difficult to get him, Tony Yeboah and Gary McAllister working together while the rest of the team was so fragile.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
We played like a side capable of scoring six goals and defended like a side capable of conceding six, Wilkinson said.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
The Times drew attention to one of his mantras pinned up in the changing rooms.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
In the 6-2 at Hillsborough, he'd cycled from 4-4-2 to 3-5-2 to 4-3-3, trying to get Leeds back into the game, and for Manchester United, he went with 4-3-1-2.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
There was a change in goal, with Mark Beeney replacing John Lukic behind a back four of Gary Kelly, David Wetherall, Richard Jobson and Tony DiRigo.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
Midfield was anchored by Carlton Palmer, with Gary Speed and Gary McAllister around him.
Daniel ChapmanHOST
Tony Yeboah and Brian Dean were partners in attack, and with a licence to roam between them and the midfield, Thomas Brolin was free to be himself.
