Paul Gascoigne Died Three Times

by | 16th, March 2009

PAUL Gascoigne “died three times in rehab”. It’s Gazza’s most memorable hat-trick since he won the league for Glasgow Rangers.

Sky Reports:

In an amazingly candid interview with Sky’s Kay Burley Gazza also revealed how:

:: he was attacked by a group of women during group therapy in the wake of his bust-up with wife Sheryl

:: he took sleeping pills and alcohol before trying to kill himself in the bath

:: he drank four bottles of whisky a day or 30 cans of Special Brew

:: he has now found God

Readers are free to debate which of those moments they like best, and include some of their own, chiefly the crying, the plastic bosoms, the burping, the Mars bars and how a man became Gazza, the genius footballer who took his nickname with him off the pitch.

Now he’s found God. If Gascoigne can get himself into a hooded robe and sandals, only then can he stop being Gazza – at least until the inter-abbey tournament kicks off.

One imagines that if Gascoigne is to be saved, he will find solace only in anonymity – when Gazza is dead…
