Read an interview with him the other day. He still seemed to be in denial about some of the stuff he's done. Beating up his ex missus, for example. The drink driving. Didn't seem to accept that either episode was his fault in any way and blamed other factors.
Great player in his time, but I'm not convinced he's a national treasure, not any more.

Yeah I read that interview, he always does one when he is not drinking, same old stuff and didn't like what he had to say about his family although you never know exactly what has gone on. Good luck to him though.

Wife-beaters are never legends in my book.
Sorry, but the ability to kick a football doesn't out-weigh the abuse he's dished out.
Brilliant footballer in his day; complete disaster as a person, though, sadly.

I really hope he stays off the sauce. It is sooo sad to see the mess he gets into.
Hopefully Rooney will get like that soon though!

"Paul Gascoigne has attacked makers of a Channel 4 documentary featuring his 12-year-old son Regan for allegedly turning his son against him.
England football legend Paul Gascoigne said drink and drug addictions nearly killed him in 2008.
Regan is seen telling the programme: "If I could wish, I would wish that he would go away from us. He's probably going to die soon.
"Everyone thinks he's Gazza but because he's the top player doesn't mean he's a good dad or good person to be with, does it really?
"I don't think there's any point in helping him," he says.
He adds: "He's my dad. He should have helped and seen me all these years.
"I don't want to waste all my tears on him. I feel bad and sorry for him because he's in this kind of state but it's not our fault"."
Remember watching that documentary. That kid was crying real tears!!
Great footballer-oh yes!! National treasure-nah!!

the nature of his illness is that every now and again he'll seem fine, this period is often accompanied by some mental scheme that he gets ridiculously excited about and trying to build bridges with his family
however, it's only a matter of time before he's at rock bottom again.....back on the drink, isolating his loved ones and running around quayside hotels screaming
i was stood a matter of INCHES from him in my local tescos once when i lived in newcastle, i ended up kind of staring at him with my mouth wide open, he was very nice and friendly though once i plucked up the courage to actually speak......it was about a week before his hotel incident and he looked like shit

That was an absolutely shocking documentary. For many years previous, I'd had precious little time for Mr Gascoigne as a result of the abuse of his missus, but until that programme, I'd never really thought about teh extent of teh distress he'd caused to the kids as well. Shocking bloke, and the fact that his response to that documentary was to blame Channel 4, rather than take it as an enormous wake-up call about how he's hurting EVERYONE around him, just sums the bloke up I'm afraid.
