So, the Pope called him .... ‘It didn’t faze me. I just said, “Alreet Pope. How are you?”

Slipping further & further from reality.

I was thinking about Gazza watching the World Cup last night.

Seeing De Jong with his foot in whatsisname's chest reminded me of the '91 FA cup final, when Gazza did exactly the same. He was stretchered off and finished watching the final in a local hospital.

Gazza is one pork pie short of a picnic thats for sure.

I sometimes wonder what would have happened had we won the world cup in 1990.

I've heard a few people say they don't think Gazza ever really mentally recovered from that tournament and that was what lead to him going completely as opposed to partially off the rails!

He was already barking ... this just added to it. It was on return from that when he did his bus-trip false breasts bit on the open top bus, but he persisted with these 'japes' and eventually the jokes wore thin.

His friendships with Chris Evans & Danny Baker fueled his drink (& I believe coke .... no, not the fizzy drink) habit and his 48hr benders. He simply didn't possess the intelect to survive the experience of playing in the Italian leagues.

Yes he was a bit mad. But some folk settle down.

I don't think Gazza had the mental capacity to recover from dissapointment.

There's more then just a touch of "There, but for the grace of God, go I" amongst it all. More to be pitied than scorned. Looks like the poor lad's lost all touch with reality.

I think we're talking about Paul Gascoigne's general behaviour as a whole, rather than just his phone list .

For me it's the chats with the Pope... I'm not entirely convince the pontif

a) has a mobile
b) would ring Gazza

as such it makes the rest of the story sound somewhat delusional

That just makes you sound naive. He's just another celebrity.

Peter Sutcliffe had messages from God if I remember rightly..........................................
Gazza thinks he is God so the Pope phones him :mrgreen:
He's a donut who unfortunatly is connected with a sport we all love and watch!!
