Gazza back on the booze

[Merlin5]

Worried onlookers told how Gazza, 45, slurred his words and slumped in a chair with chalk from a pool cue smeared on his face.

He also lost hundreds of pounds on pool table bets before eventually being carried away by a concerned promoter and his life-long pal Jimmy Five Bellies.

Gazza, who has battled years of drink and drug abuse in the wake of his glittering soccer career, was in Dubai on a speaking tour.

Expat Kareem Ghani said: “It’s so tragic. He was really friendly but just looked like a ghost"

It's his life let him do what he wants.

It's so upsetting seeing this happen to one of your childhood heroes. I was 9 when he scored that free-kick against Arsenal and I'll never forget how much joy it brought to everyone in the room watching.

 

[NiCkNaMe]

Just looks like any other dude on the lash in another country.

Such a huge fall from grace for Gazza...even though he was a Spurs player, i still loved him for the character he was..widely known for his crying at the WC in Italy back in 1990.

Such a shame, some great friends he must have around him, not!

Who the hell cares about such a massive, giant ******* of a loser.

This. Just cause he was an alcoholic doesn't mean he can't occasionally get battered when he's abroad.

Alcoholics don't tend to want a drink.

Nice. What a pleasant person you are.

Some people, really. Ignorant to the downright unpleasant.

There are some people in the world who have troubles, footballers having problems is unfortunately nothing new, it's such a shame some of the best players have lost their fights with their demons.

Um, what?

saw him in adverts in the run up to the euro's, took me a while to realise who it was, doesnt look well at all .

 

[Father Ted]

Seems to be following a depressingly simialr route that of Besty before him, unfortunately I can only see it ending in the same way.

 

[DiCe!]

Such a shame. Hero.

 

[Cosimo]

It will kill him sooner than later. Very sad.

 

[cwhitehead]

Such a shame as he was doing so well, trying hard to stay off the stuff too.

 

[bemaniac]

Clearly just having a one off night out abroad. Sure he'll be back to sober when he returns.

You don't know much about alcoholism, do you?
