What they Said
"I can assure everyone that I am going nowhere.
"I don't think the manager Is going to let me go now I have scored 22 goals In my first season in the First Division."
Alan McInally.
ASTON Villa, who dominated most of the game, could only salvage a draw in their relegation battle with Coventry.
David Platt produced a brilliant 18th minute goal to give Villa the lead but then they were defied almost single-handed by Coventry's goalkeeper Steve Ogrizovic.
Gary Bannister headed home for the equaliser to deny Villa the win they desperately required.
