Gascoigne Pictured In His Heyday
Friends of fallen sporting idol, Paul Gascoigne, expressed their concern last night as the ex England soccer idol was spotted at Victoria Station, accompanied by ex-wife Cheryl, in what was described by onlookers as a state of complete sobriety. This latest sighting comes hot on the heels of a similar incident 2 weeks ago when Gascoigne, 87, was seen waiting for a taxi in Gateshead, seemingly without the need to lean against a lamp post for support.
A bystander, who was at the scene said. "It was an appalling sight to be honest with you. Gazza appeared to be able to stand completely unaided, his speech was clear and unslurred and at one point he even chatted in a friendly manner to a group of schoolchildren. When he went into the buffet and came out with hot drinks for himself and Cheryl I had to turn away. Nobody likes to see a former sporting icon in that sort of condition do they?. I was hoping at one point that he might punch Cheryl a few times in the face, or at the very least give her a quick back-hander, but sadly he didn't even barge into her before vomiting over her top. It's tragic really"
Gazza's long time pal, and self-proclaimed radio legend, Danny Baker, told reporters. "It'a absolutely heartbreaking to see my old friend like this. I spoke to Chris Evans last night and we've decided to dig deep into our own pockets and take the boy on a two week bender to Magaluf, where hopefully, we can get him to see sense after a decent session on the grog and a quality stint of having raw spirits funnelled down his neck in The Dentist's Chair"
When we spoke to Gazza on the phone last night he appeared to be completely unaware of the episode and in a reminder of happier days he called me his best mate before threatening to take the fucking lot of us.
