lurcherman 887 12,709 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 My favourite memory of Gazza was when he turned up at the Raoul Moat saga, with fishing rod, a KFC and a few tinnies, to try end the siege. The man's a legend. lol never heard that one Haha i remember that. Quality Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stabba 10,745 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Waste of skin. Helped by family members countless times as well as his fellow professionals. Been given legs up by countless teams and TV stations only to piss the opportunity away. Least George Best was honest and admitted that he'd just carry on drinking even when given a liver transplant. Ffs how many stints in rehab does it take for folk to realise that Gazza is just an out an out pisshead who'll throw any help given straight back in your face and stand and stick the charlie up his nostrils and the vodka down his gullet while everyone piss and moans about him being a national treasure. Some national treasure eh. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pesky1972 4,931 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 He cuts a pathetic figure now, sad to see...although no sadder to me than seeing the nick of any other jakey where it's all gone to ratsh!t because of the booze. I've got sympathy for Gascoigne and all alcoholics because to some extent I think it's in the DNA. Just born with with an 'addictive' gene. Bad luck really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blackmaggie 3,375 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 gaza has the best treatment money can buy countless times more chances and better treatment that most ever get and hes not homeless but he and only him can stop him drinking yes i really liked him but he was only a footballer at the end of the day not out saving lifes or finding a cure for cancer yes its sad and will sadly end in a bad way i think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
