PAUL GASCOIGNE - LOOK AT THE STATE OF HIM - WHERE ARE ALL OF THOSE HANGERS ON NOW ????

Yeh remind me of an old Jamie Vardy

We don't know what his friends are doing / have done for him. You'd like to think whatever they have done, they'e kept it quiet out of both self-respect and respect for Gascoigne himself.

Yes though, as an outsider this does seem a desperately sad case.

I'll always remember him in the 90-91 season at Tottenham absolutely running rings around opposition week-in, week-out.

He was (consistently) the best footballer I have ever seen in the flesh

I thought he was doing much better now. When are these pictures from?

TYPICAL SPUDS FANS wearing the rose tinted glasses besides the fa cup run he was bog average for spuds and if you compare his performances for newcastle theres no comparisson,every monday night on n east news was like watching a goal of the season competition,and i,m a boro fan who hates newcastle

I was a Spurs season ticket holder in 90-91.

Game in game out he ran the show that season and he was as far from 'bog average' as it's possible to be, in fact to use the well-worn phrase at some points it was men (or a man) against boys, so much was he on a different level to everyone around him.

Like I said, he was brilliant game in, game out that season and not just in the cup but if you want a highlight that sticks in the memory his hat-trick against a decent Derby County side with Mark Wright and Peter Shilton. One outstanding dribble, round Shilton and a tap in, one 25 yard free kick to Shilton's left then a similar one to Shilton's right - after pointing to him where he was going to put it!

Yeah - he really was that good that season.

Christ, I like a drink myself but tend to stick to lager if I'm watching the football or out for a meal. This poor man downs bottles of spirits for a laugh. I can only imagine it's with the 80k he got for his phone being hacked.


If I had my way I would lock him up for two years to protect himself from further damage but that wont happen.

PS He gave more to Rangers than he ever did to Spurs but that's not the point.

classic case of lost syndrome when career finished,not bright enough for management,pity no one could sort out a job for him working with youth academies though.

Surprised the FA dont have Gascoigne on the shortlist for next England manager

was doing most of this stuff to a lesser extent and threw in a bit of wife beating whilst still playing

I have more sympathy for the thousands of ordinary people who's lives are blighted by living with someone who has a drink problem.

Nothing wrong with that in which case you should question the OP as to why he started the thread.

Just noticed in the third picture that he's naked.

1000 X more concerned for African kids who die young to preventable diseases than this fückwit.

It only costs about a grand to fly to Africa. Remember to take your life savings..

Best footballer ive ever seen live. Remember when he was starting out at Newcastle and they played Cov. I didnt know his name then but he ran the show,flicks tricks. It still in my head today years on.

StewartyB with a few interesting contributions on here.

not really so interesting. "Instructive" (of his own demons) fits better.

RAPS, the point I'm making is there hope for some alcoholics, sadly there's little hope for those African kids you mention. There should be, but there isn't.

The OP is a serial coont Stew. That's why he opened the thread.
Horrible disease and he can't be too many more drinks away from death.
Was one of the finest players I've ever seen in the flesh and we'll always remember him for his contribution to 9IAR.

Great player for us aka especially when Brian Laudrup was in the same team. I think that was the time we nearly got into the Champions Final. (against the French team?) Unstoppable in Scotland and would have given any of the top four in England a proper game.

Sickening to see those photos but sadly I have no answer.

Nowt anyone can do other than locking him away for his own good but that won't happen.
The only person who can save him is himself but hard to see him pulling himself clear now.

* I loved it when he pretended to play the flute at the Celtic end in the old firm game. He had no idea whatsoever what he was doing. That was Coisty and Durranty for you!!!

Fantastic story about him hiding 2 fish in Duries car.
Heres the clip of Ally telling it. Will make you laugh.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5JC-Evp4bc

the problem is he is like many other street drinkers that plague our towns and cities and nothing is done about that

if they had highly contagious diseases they would be taken off the streets and put into secure quarantine wards in hospitals

why cant there be a law like that for these lost souls

they are a danger to themselves and their dependents

you dont have a right to drink yourself to death

a friend of mine did the same thing and was about gazzas age

there was nothing we could do about it

even the local pub was reluctant to stop serving him

it wasnt until we threatened them with violence that they did

we had to do it with corner shop as well

but they always find a way to get drink be it via taxi or home delivery or even so called friends

Indeed dukeofpuke.

Great clip aka.

The OP is a serial coont Stew


Aye aka, strange he started this thread on this day. Coincidence? I think not.

AT THE BORO townsend goaded him into getting into the 250,000 brand new team coach and hide it from the driver telling him it was stolen,great prank till gazza pranged it by driving it into the iron gates

no wonder moatey topped himself when that popped by for a spot of midnight fishing, LOL

You cant help somebody that wont help himself ysdc.

Cometh the day cometh the man.
1-0 down and then this.
The hattrick that won us 8IAR.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ArV_2wOgbc

any of us could all end up that way - yes, a mental disorder

see the op is sneaking back on after declaring he'd never post if Brexit won. What's up **** stain has your sister dumped you?

Only low lifes could admire a self confessed wife beater.

Started the move then ran the length of the park and finished it off.
Great player, best of his generation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASqFeIHfifs

self pitying wife beating alky cretin.

Greeted as a hero. He didn't let us down.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVOXQgRvv8M

I agree with sofiakenny's description of him but wish him well and rid of his demons.

Where's Jimmy 'Five Bellies' these days ?

not sure about these photos ,clearly he is pulling his dressing gown together and looks angry at the photographers intrusion ,they go on to say he was flashing ,but dont show the photos in the order they were taken .
If he was dressed i dont think he would have looked that bad ,unshaven but does not look drunk ,aware he has been caught by the press ,again .They say he was buying drink but if he was why no photo ?
maybe he got on the phone and the snapper bolted but the story in pictures is incomplete .
Looks like the evening ,they were taken and the lack of shoes is troublesome ,why would you go out with no shoes ? he is not drunk imo and wonder what the full story was but the media got him and everyone can have a good laugh ....sad stuff all round .
And as for where are his pals ,i think he is being looked after ,being charged with the racial discrimination wont be helping him ,a troubled soul at best that wont need much to be pushed over the edge .
I suspect he has been set up here tbh but not that it matters ,easy pray now ,media hovering ,folllowing him like vultures ...

seaking watch out this could be you if you lose your certified sports pro status!

I would hazard a guess OP they have done everything for him, paid for his rehab several times over, give him somewhere to live but there comes a point, people who have this disease dont differentiate from their friends and drink, drink is their friend and mental illness is their life.  There is only so much you can do.  I pity those in ever day life that have had a tragedy like losing a sibling or dependant or a child and it kicked off an addiction to drink or drugs who dont get the chance of the best rehabs int he word several times over.  **** him as far as I am concerned, has had 100s of chances and support and those more deserving do not get one. 

Don't get me wrong i feel sorry for him and it is a disease I wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy but at some point people are beyond help.  It wasnt 10 weeks ago he was in court over the pone tapping, looked stellar then.  He was in a position to put his money into trust to be only given so much per month etc with a signatory or similar but didnt protect himself, why should we look after and protect him now?

Deluded absolutely  DELUDED

The 3 seasons your magic Gazza was in the same team as Laudrup yous cam bottom twice in the groups and no qualification 3rd season.

came*

Oh f off akabula you miserable picky scots bar steward, always moaning about something, this isn't about me IT'S ABOOT gazza, greatest English player I've seen

Yer right Chaser. Was season 92/93 that happened when Gazza was at Lazio.
Marseille later admitted to bribing a referee so we were cheated.

acqui you said you were a man of your word and wouldn't come back if Brexit won. What happened?

I think acquiesce12 was posting with sympathy for him and he has a point. No one wants to know him now that he has hit rock bottom. It's tragic.

Aka and you lot still signed one of the cheats Basil Boli

People say no one wants to know him but it could be him wanting to be alone for all we know

Are we meant to see him in pictures sitting with celebs all day , this is just a guy going about on binges

Celtic losing 1-0

Plenty still trying to help him mac but people in his situation can be devious.
Unless he pulls himself back from the brink then he's a gonner.

Thats it he has to want help or no one can help him

From personal experience, which I don't want to elaborate on, they drag you down along with them and drive you nuts. It really is a tragic situation for all concerned. One of the greatest players of modern times and I wish him and connections well. Very sad.

hopefully he will fall over over and bang his head and get a hospital bed

we all know that can be arranged

or maybe just stand by and let him die like george best

oh sorry he had a liver transplant

will society let gazza have a liver transplant to save him

i say no let him die

if his friends or the law wont take over NOW

as people have said,the impetus has got be from him

people get it wrong with george tho,...the liver had a george best transplant

v sad at this time of year,grandfather died in july,lived till he was 95,always put on his longevity down to the fact that every morning he'd drink a glass of andrews liver salts,was awful sad at the funeral...we had to beat his liver to death with a stick

no no no

he needs helping he is dying

if you saw an old man fall in the road

would you help him up or call for help

or walk by and say hes old its his fault he should of stayed in and hes going to die soon anyway

duke how many times has he been helped???ok help him this time-he'll be at the same situation in a months time,2 months time....

from age 18-24 he was top notch.......then he went to italy and everything was downhill from there......odd highlight here and there

bloody hell wake up

if he had a machine gun in his hands and he didnt know the fck why

I got my dates wrong. No big deal like Celtic last night the WORST result in their history, a policeman scores the winner alongside a taxi driver, a customs officer and a fireman. LMFAO

Don't get all this sympathy for a person who happened to be useful at footy. Never any mention of doctors or surgeons who fall to the drink.

He has the choice. Stop drinking or die. Seems easy enough decision to me.

No offence Blackrock but this is the football forum but what you say is correct.

i look at it this way he is a vulnerable man and cant make the best decision for himself he needs to be legally taken away from the drink and helped
but saying that there are about 50,000 registered alcohlics so could the health service afford it, in gazzas case he could pay

vulnerable children are taken away from their parents vulnerable old age people are looked after etc

Imagine what state  he would be in if he gambled ...

No coont would feel sorry for him at all ,not even a wee bit ,he would be reviled .

Knew a man ,worked hard for everything he had ,real hard but then gambled everything away ,then the drink took over ,ended up on the street drinking with the jakeys ....death followed shortly after ,the end .

It's of little consequence, but I know the taxi he goes into has the phone number 01202. Does anyone know which area code this is? I was just interested as to where he is based.

Bournemouth.

Thanks. Giving some thought I doubt if it would matter where he is based given his problem.

sunny Dorsetshire near to posh Sandbanks  -  maybe he would be better off on a council estate in Gateshead - could be boredom lurking

Chaser enjoy

He's a legend of both clubs Chaser so here's one who is purely a celtic legend.

Scott Brown is no legend imo

Last legend to play at Celtic is Larsson

Legend gets chucked about too much now


This guy is a Celtic legend

I hear Broonie is bricking it at the thought of having to face Barton

Chaser I've started up a business selling Rangers personalised keyrings but it's not goin too well.
In fact I haven't sold any yet can ye give me some advice

You should shift plenty Joseph ones

a wife beater maybe but the cow took everything she could of him plus,i wouldn't stand up for her for a second

She even took her bloody daughter away from him but kept the name Gascoigne

Seething about what chaser? Because I got my dates wrong? I doubt it. You asked Rangers fans to start their own thread a few weeks ago. I'll start it for you in the near future. Hopefully you wont participate...

You wanna bet Stew. this kinda sums up celtic supporters

Fair enough. We'll leave it at that.

how is gazza now ?

Aka, love that twitter screenshot 

Why on earth is the wife beating self pitying alkie in the "Next England  Manager Betting" on here?

Probably because he couldn't do worse than the two main candidates.
