Gazza's Coming Home

1996 Documentary on Paul Gascoigne's time at Rangers

[@shadow-Sun]

I knew Gazza when I was a young man between the ages of 14 and 22 he was a quiet lad never kicked around on the streets to much was always at football training . Back then nobody called him Gazza that was an invention of the press years later when he started to come to their attention in the very early part of his career. He was known as Gasa by eveyone and called Gasa by everyone ..I remember his first "free car " sponsored by some dealership when he was in the reserve team for Newcastle it was a shitty brown coloured Renault 5 , he was dead chuffed pulled over at a junction when he saw me behind him in my equally shitty ford fiesta and jumped out and shouted " like the car ? , I just got it " I said I didnt know you had passed your test and he replied "I haven't laughed that naughty laugh of his jumped in and drove off... he always was a genuine lad and character . I can't claim to be mates with him or nothing he was a few years younger than me and we lived on the same estate in Dunston way back when ...but I wish him peace and happiness , he deserves a happy life and good health because he is one of the good people out there in the world (football aside ) I really hopes he beats his demons and alcohol and lives a happy life without the pain that is so well documented by the press...good luck Gasa and best wishes from an aquaintance of 30+ years ago ....

[@BS15RED]

I'm 33, I remember Gazza in Italia 90, and Euro 96, I don't care what he's done off the pitch, he's the best player England have had in my lifetime. Take care Gazza, my generation fucking love you.

[@John-tz2tx]

Yes, he was better than any England player then and better than any now, he just cruised past players, England have never had anyone like that, delighted he played for my team. Rangers

[@brianlaudrupchannel]

+BS15RED Do you think Rangers was a highlight of his career?

[@John-tz2tx]

+billyblackburn87 It was, he was at his best at Rangers, but for injury we wouldn't have got him, but he got his form back, remember the stormer he played when England beat Holland at Euro 96?

[@brianlaudrupchannel]

John Scott i think he was still at his best at Rangers otherwise he wouldnt be able to perform at euro 96

[@maxthrust88888]

How do you remember italia 90 when you weren't born?

[@RobbieB2024]

gazza was a legend from a celtic supporter how could ya not like the man, he didnt care about religion etc, he was a happy go lucky chap, and a class footballer in his day

[@samsta871]

Well said my friend

[@martinhill9261]

Best english player in the last 50 years.

[@squirrelandgman71]

that was a fucking great rangers team. some real top class players. what a team.

[@olayinkaamara385]

kippax1971 Back when Scottish football still mattered.

[@andygalloway3282]

Yeah, it's because of that team they are fucked now

[@samsta871]

Brilliant,remember watching this on the tele all those years back,seems like yesterday,cheers for the upload.

[@heed17]

Cheers for adding this fella! That first season he had at Rangers was unbelievable!

[@ewbu7232]

Brilliant player such a shame the way he is now

[@blade0954]

thanks for post,much appreciated.

[@Andrew-pg6us]

For a short period he was the most gifted, brilliant midfielder in generations. 1990. Nobody has compared since. Fact.

Gazza is a phenomenon - A truly great lad!

[@crawfordbaptie5863]

Falkirk fan here but always liked gazza, one of best to ever play in Scotland imo

[@coish1]

Simply The Best !

[@alanw-cd8qs]

True legend long live gazza WATP" sure it's old but it is beautiful"

[@happyguyx1]

[@GeordieSte0111]

Some touching moments about depression I can relate to.

[@The_Unintelligent_Speculator]

You ok mate? Hope your still here.

[@CircRhyth1981]

a genuine genius, a flawed genius, one of the greatest ever

[@CircRhyth1981]

hes given away every penny

[@marcpreston1]

Amazing that this kind of stuff was caught on camera, such a down to earth guy and a great talent. Imagine seeing this kind of thing with Ronaldo or Messi in 20 years! (never)

[@kylebutler3018]

That was brilliant.

[@12inchmaster]

Wot a guy top man wen ya down think of gaza and smile

[@colinmitchell183]

The best player I've ever seen! Bjk

[@njclondon2009]

[@Nautilus1972]

Two guys called Stein and Lazarus looking after him .. and he ends up broke. Go figure.

[@jamievince6413]

Legend

[@garethhook9972]

[@graemegood3333]

[@nickmcc123]

[@John-tz2tx]

Wonderful player, I can always say I regularly saw a world class player, great memories.

[@malcolmfletcher545]

nick mccormack

[@deniseanderson582]

wow great story

[@CARLIN4737]

he was fucked over by so many people on so many levels. he was always damaged goods. but what a player.

[@RandomnessTube.]

LOVED THIS GUY AS A KID FOLLOW FOLLOW

[@samsta871]

As soon as his agent said glasgow rangers his mind was made up,especially staying next to Loch Lomond fishing boats etc superb

[@lodersracing]

Surprised Keegan wasn't interested in signing him at Newcastle.

[@andreasegde]

A thick lad with good legs.

[@bigjockknewheknew3882]

Fucking loved gazza Watp

[@The_Unintelligent_Speculator]

Snooker fan here. Paul is a human being.

[@philipezra8671]

His condition was terrible for a pro. Imagine what he would’ve been like if healthy.

[@lewisvann1]

40 mins in - tell me you're an alcoholic without saying you're an alocohic .... such a good lad, but such a sad man inside

[@fancypantsuk]

Gazza going from lazio to rangers is like him winning 1p on deal or no deal.....

[@MrUnstoppable69]

Aye now it would be

[@GlentoranRangers1690]

You obviously only started following football about 5 years ago then and are totally blinded by the modern day game. Rangers wer huge back then and you could see how is reaction and wot he said wen told of rangers wanting him. A host of clubs in the premier league wanted GAZZA from lazio and he choose rangers ya tit, we had the money and champions league football then to match anyone in England.

[@fancypantsuk]

David Smith huge? In what form? He went to rangers for one reason. Easy life style, easy money. easy league. He looked like maradona in scotland. In england he would of looked like madonna. Because he was wey past his sell by date. He could of been the greatest english midfielder ever. And for the record i'm 43 n i seen gazza in the 90 world cup i was 18 then n thought this is the greatest english player ever he's gonna win us the world cup. Alcohol fucked him up. He needed one man to make him the greatest Sir alex ferguson n he decided to go to spurs instead. That sadly was his down fall..

[@GlentoranRangers1690]

Rangers and Celtic have always been huge clubs, in terms of fanbase, history, tradition etc, I bet you can't name me 5 bigger clubs to come out of British football than rangers, please don't think from the last 10 years. In the late 80 early 90s, financially and commercially rangers wer the biggest club in Britain fact. Well in demand and bringing more money in as a club than anyone in British football. Then sky came along and pumped billions into ur new formed premier league and all the best foreign players followed suit. Back even further between 61 and 72 both old firm clubs played in at least 4 European finals winning 2 of them and a few European cup semi finals. Not bad from a small city and country, producing 2 clubs that's known all over the world with fanbase over the world to match it.

[@brianlaudrupchannel]

+David Smith Only time Gazza played champions league football was at rangers

[@Bellocks1]

And yeah, where's these great mates of Gazza's now? The ones sitting with him towards the end of this film? Nowhere.

[@georgiebrownletsgo1137]

gazza n laundrup were my fave 🔴⚪🔵watp

[@John-tz2tx]

Give it the sash whenever you like Gazza, and he did again👍🏼🇬🇧⚽️💪😂

[@paulgallacher5384]

Says the idiot with the IQ of a glass of water.

[@SULTubo]

GAZZA!

[@paullittle4622]

The finest footballer this country has ever produced

[@Noodles37UK]

After the Madchester thing really kicked off, by '89/ '90 guys just weren't dying or bleaching their hair anymore. It had died a death. If anyone can remember that era, you'll see my point. When Gascoine came to Glasgow- the bleach came back in, then the dye.

[@Kehua800]

What the hell happened Rangers. we could pick the best English player we wanted, now we cant even get a fucking point against Cowdenbeth

[@robclarke3402]

Hell of a player back then, but the only time I ever saw him in the flesh though was when my team Wrexham beat Middlesborough in the FA Cup in 99/00. Gazza was washed up by then and seemed more interested in waving to the crowd than playing.

[@SeanRof]

Quote on 21:10 -' Its nice to have money and know youll be alright for the rest of your life'. 15 yrs later skint... Hey Moaty, Moaty , its gazza, Ive got some bread and chicken lets go fishing' ...

[@signoresantinoburnett1169]

Like mentioned below. If he stayed at Lazio he would have played with Nedved, Vieri, Stankovic, Salas, and Mihajlović in 96 and later Crespo, Nesta and Veron.

[@dondamon4669]

He sounds like a genius compared to Wayne Rooney and harry kane!

[@igolfjtweetler4097]

He was basically finished at 30 which was down to his own indiscipline off the field.

[@jordipena7984]

El tercero detras de robson y lineker con todos mis respetos

[@Pazuzu82]

Gazza and laudrup were the key midfielders to rangers with coisty being in the right place at the right time, another miroslave klose.

[@GamessF1]

We should’ve done something in Europe with the team we had. What could have been.

[@johnt6300]

oh man the side in that tunnel could do with a few now not the best times but chins up and onwards

[@ryanp758]

diffrent gravy.go on gazzax

[@johnbarr6429]

gazza

[@umarbakr927]

"Where did she conceive that?" - haha what a question!

[@Vortigan07]

I've got a lot of sympathy for Gazza inasmuch as I think the seeds of a lot of the damage were sown post Italia '90 with the whole "Gazzamania" thing and the British press and media doing what they do best,putting people on pedestals and then doing everything in their power to knock them off etc But I can't have sympathy for the injury that fucked him in the '91 cup final.He should have been sent off for his first "challenge" but the one that injured him could just have easily shattered Gary Charles' leg and ended his career....and nobody would still be talking about that 24 years later if it had happened that way! Just goes to show,he was already coming apart just a year after Italy and he was never the player that he had,could and should have been thereafter.

[@davewin1910]

He sold fishing to me.

[@harrybo9608]

sound guy.jist played for the wrong team.legend.-as a man.great player

[@paulbutler332]

1:10 Gazza looked like jimmy saville

[@jameshearns3439]

What a dick you are take you're where Jimmy's friend in the nursery

[@lewiscrap7786]

no fecken way man u the pool is way better x

[@sundijohnson2486]

Rangers are champions for the eighth consecutive season 😂 Not to take anything away from Gazza though😊

[@brianlaudrupchannel]

Shame when Rangers had Laudrup and Gazza the team as a whole were dissapointing in europe, played great stuff at times but results were abysmal

[@andygalloway3282]

Tefal nappa'!

[@thehumbleairgunner750]

A miss-understood genius

[@damatoboxing2009]

Hopefully he is coming home soon in a fucking box HERE WE GO TEN IN A ROW YOUR NOT RANGERS ANYMORE

[@mxtthewd14]

k. connelly Brilliant flute player wasn't he? tore you rattlers to pieces, There's only one Paul GASCOIGNEEEEEE, WATP

[@damatoboxing2009]

Lmao ahh yes the glory days eh... fuck that was long long ago now... fast forward to 2017. Your biggest rivals are chasing 10 in a row (6 already won) your own club needs loans just to continue running till the end of the season and Mike Ashley is bleeding your club dry we just spent £3m on a midfielder which is pocket change for the champs all you can do is get a 5 month loan deal for rejects that cant even get a game for their first team we have battered yous every fucking game this season MIND THE GAP -19 WITH A GAME IN HAND KNOW YOUR PLACE HUN SCUM

Why did Gazza leave Rangers?

[@ewanmcphie8781]

Drugs and drink

[@adie9sheath]

[@andisadler2897]

Rangers will be back!. they are just going through the healing process. FFS their lucky there arent dead forever. Still Rangers and still a massive club. Celtic play in a mediocre league and win every year WTF is the point of that. Rangers have to make it more of a challenge or scottish football will die.

[@drover110]

why? wud of shud of cud of- he didnt want to play in front of 50,000 whinging cockneys! he'd already experienced that at Spurs. He only wanted to play infront of proper fans, hence Newcastle, Lazio and Rangers- and that's from the horses mouth. NUFC.

[@gamestation9437]

Well you got win stuff in life that never happens at Rangers or Lazio or Newcastle or any shit team of the 90s
