[edit] Career
Gregory was named Most Valuable Player of the 1999 season at the Antigua Football Association’s Hall of Fame induction.[1] He joined Trinidadian side Joe Public F.C. in March 2001 to embark a career in professional football, whilst finishing his secondary education.[2] Gregory denied rumours linking him with a move to Hoppers FC in August 2003,[3] but a month later did move to Hoppers.[4] It was revealed in 2005 that Gregory was registered with two teams, Freemansville and Wadadli FC, and that Freemasville had made a request for him to be released from his contracr with Wadadli.[5]
Gregory has been capped by the Antigua and Barbuda national football team, and was joint 7th top scorer of the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup Qualifying with 2 goals.[6]
Gregory scored 13 goals in the Antigua and Barbuda Premier Division in the 2006-07 season.[7] He went for trials with Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest following the closure of the 2006-07 season,[7] and also went on trial with York City after he and Damien Farrell had been recommended by Bryan Hamilton, a consultant for the Antiguan national team.[8] He and Farrell were however sent back to their homeland, but York manager Billy McEwan said said he and Farrell could still be brought back on trial throughout the season.[9]
It was reported that Gregory was to return to England within a few weeks after returning home.[10] He was to return to York City for additional trials before the end of August,[11] but went to play for San Juan Jabloteh for the remainder of their season.[12] He scored only one goal in the Pro League for San Juan, but scored eight goals overall.[13]
