Football Legend Paul Gascoigne tells his story

Anything goes with James English Ep/154
Football Legend Paul Gascoigne tells his life story.

[@DagzD]

I saw him once standing outside of Newcastle station. I had to say something. I walked up to him shitting myself, said "Paul", he looked at me thinking who's this weirdo, I put my hand out, shook his hand, and I just said "Legend". He laughed, said "Cheers mate", and I went on my way. Best day ever.

Loved here in Scotland too. I support celtic and when he went to rangers I was gutted coz I was a fan of his. I couldn’t hate him though. He’s too likeable to hate. Even when he scored a goal against us in the Scotland v England game and done that daft celebration were he lay down with his mouth open and all his team mates were mimicking pouring alcohol down his throat. 😂 It was a cracking goal too.

[@elainebaxter7203]

Despite not being a Rangers fan I became a huge Gazza fan after my team Morton visited Ibrox on his debut in Scottish football. He took absolute pelters from the 3000 'Ton fans behind the goal for the whole match. Yet at the end of the game he came over to our support, applauded us and gave us the thumbs up. The gesture was reciprocated and he was given a huge ovation in return. A true working class hero who oozes class.

[@edz619]

BOOM! We're nearly on! Another top guest! I've had some good nights out with Gazza, we've lost touch over the last 10 years and I hate it when I see him in a mess in the media! It is such a sad story with Gazza, but let me tell you something and I'm sure you will see it in the interview when it airs... Gazza is the most kind hearted man I have ever met! (Also the funniest) He has a lovely heart he really does, at times when I have been out with Gazza it was me that got stressed at the amount of people coming up to him to shake hands or get a photo but Gazza always had time for people, his kindness just shone through! He was hounded by the press, I remember we were in a bar called Bruxelles just off Grafton Street in Dublin and Gazza was widely reported to have been off the drink, he was drinking milkshakes. The press were all outside with their cameras waiting to get 'that shot' Gazza couldn't hold my beer, he couldn't get a round in because that would be the shot they wanted! Him with a beer in his hand! No back story it would have been next day headlines 'Gazza back on the drink' Imagine having to live your life feeling you are being watched 24/7, that is what they did to Gazza! He even worried about the way he walked or if he tripped because that would be the shot they wanted! Of course in the early days he loved the attention but in the latter they ruined his life! I hope James, with his fantastic interviewing skills, shows the world the true Gazza, a gentleman, a kind caring funny man! I can't wait for this one! Well done James!

Crazy that you are mates with him. How did you meet ??

[@edz619]

@@fredinabun1242 He played at Boro with one of my best mates and he introduced us, we used to eat in a cafe in my hometown and they have a pic of him with all the staff behind the counter, it was great to meet him and we hit it off as soon as we met, it was strange at first because I’m a Spurs fan and i idolised him back in the day, then all of a sudden he’s a mate and we’re texting each other etc.. the guy has a heart of gold honestly! He’s got his troubles but he means no harm to anyone! I haven’t watched the interview but I can’t wait.. I will get in touch with him again, this has brought it to the forefront 👍🏻 stay safe buddy

[@fredinabun1242]

I'm a Boro fan born and bread 🍞 there and played for the Middlesbrough school of excellence. There was no academy at the time but I remember when Gazza played for us he scored a few free kicks. I'm sure I was at Everton when he scored against them for Boro. Hope you do get back in touch with him life is short. Wish you well.

Gazza broke my heart with that Euro 96 goal, but you can’t help but love the guy. He’s lived some life that’s for sure! All the best Gazza and keep up the good work, James. Cracking podcast.

Class interview, you enjoyed it as much as what we did, Gazza looks really well.. the press need to leave him alone...

[@mickywilson5118]

Great podcast JE. Gazza is a legend. The best footballer I’ve seen live ... along with Juninho 😉

[@mrnice7570]

Lowest of the low, media!! This man deserved Scottish hall of fame. Shame on all those who prevented it because of his personal issues. Nothing to do with his god given talent. Always be a legend to me and every Rangers fan. 🔵⚪🔴

This is THE BEST interview you have done James what a absolute legend wish you nothing but the best gazza my football hero my bedroom wall was full of posters of gazza

[@neilking758]

True legend from my local town. How could anyone gifted with the talents this lad has had from such a young age, get through a life full of amazing achievements unscathed. Remember he was top of his game long before players were baby sat the way they are today. Legend always love you mate.

[@skid599]

Unfortunately nobody comes through anything unscathed Neil. I think Gazza would agree. No disrespect meant, Gazza is the best:) Love from sunny Bournemouth:)

[@AArmstrongRoofingEst]
