Paul Gascoigne in emergency detox after hospital drama | Mail Online
I see Paul Gacoigne is having problems yet again. Of course most of us of a certain age will recall his beautiful football in 1990 and a career that stopped and started thereafter. He seems to have been in the wars a bit with his drink battles and is once again trying to get better after a battle with the bottle.
I am shocked by these pictures, and though no spring chicken, Gascoigne looks very old, worn and frail. If only he could get a little support and guidance. When somebody does that to themselves it is easy to say 'Well, he shouldn't have been a piss head', but someone like Gascoigne is clearly ill and needs protection. You don't get into looking like that for a laugh. I thought the image was altered at first, as he looks really strange.
I think Gascoigne could do with 6 months in rehab and why should these things be really expensive anyway? If someone wants to sort themselves out, then why is it a rich mans hobby? The poor and Gascoigne seems to be heading that way are largely left to drink and die and is that fair? We can provide for anyone who opens their legs ('because there are children!' says the politician gleefully licking his lips), but a sick man wanting to get better has to spend tens of thousands on rehab which is essentially a cash cow.
I know Gascoigne has had it good in life, but I feel sorry for him. Thoughts?
