Paul GascogneĀ 

Whether during his footballing heyday, through his spousal abuse exploits, through his drunken pissed up antics, or his full on alcoholic depression, heĀ still always pullsĀ a daft face and spoutsĀ some jibberish to gain a laugh, like the classroom joker. He never seemsĀ to know what, or when it is/was appropriate to try for that laugh.

A couple of personal experiences of him is when Boro used to train in a small village called Hurworth, just outside of Darlington.

He once drove past in an old Escort with 2 mates, pulled up outside of the Chippy next to QE college, rolled down the window and shouted ā€œstop eating pies ya fat bastardā€ at my mate Wedgy, then pulled a daft face and shot off. We all just laughed our arses off, but Wedge stormed off in a huff, launching his pie across the road.

The other time was when a group of us were heading to the bus stop in Hurworth to head to Darlington. We saw the tail end of the following situation. Gazza had nicked the Boro footy bus with a couple of mates, drove it around a Hurworth, before eventually crashing it in to the bus stop in front of 7 or 8 waiting passengers, he opened the door and shouts ā€œAnyone for Darloā€ and pulled a face, while the lads in back laughed their tits off, to the absolute horror and bemusement of the waiting public.Ā The BoroĀ bus was fucked, and theĀ team bus driver was livid. He left the keys in, had to take some responsibility andĀ thought heā€™d get the sack, so Gazza apparently wrote him a cheque for Ā£20 grand. Probably pulled a face as he signed it.
