What they Said
"If the players are not happy about the situation [the size of their Cup final bonus], all they have to do is come and knock on my door.
"They needn't worry about Wembley they can get out of the club.
"After a performance like Saturday's, they should be thinking of paying the club to play at Wembley, rather than the other way round.
โIt [Garry Parkerโs response to being substituted against Ipswich] wonโt affect my thoughts for the final.
"Basically, Garry Is not a bad lad, but I won't tolerate that sort of behaviour.
โHe made a retort to the bench, and I was in the mood to pull someone off - so it was him.
โThe way we were playing, no one should have been in a position to say anything.
โWe should have been getting on with the job, and not answering back.
โWhat happened to Garry is a warning to anyone else - but thatโs the end of the matter.โ
Ron Atkinson.
"It's sad, but this sort of thing [arguments over bonuses] always seems to happen before a final.
"We don't want a problem like this In the build-up to Wembley."
Kevin Richardson.
COCA-COLA Cup finalists Aston Villa were brought down to earth as Ipswich secured their first League away win this year.
Gavin Johnson's eighth-minute strike was enough to condemn Villa to only their second defeat in eight Premiership games as Ipswich bounced back following their 5-1 home hammering by Arsenal last week.
The biggest cheer of the day from Villa's fans came following the news from Old Trafford that the Manchester United goalkeeper, Peter Schmeichel, will miss the Cup final following his sending-off against Charlton.
Villa paid dearly for starting too slowly against an Ipswich side who had lost their last two games. There appeared to be little danger when Johnson collected the ball 20 yards out, but his weak shot completely deceived Villa 'keeper Mark Bosnich.
