Gazza's Stories | Playing tennis at Italia '90, being banned from Buckingham Palace & shooting Vinnie Jones

  • Summary

  • Smithy and Pete are back for a special BONUS episode bringing you Paul Gascoigne telling some of his greatest stories!


    Smithy met Gazza back in 2012 and recorded him telling some of his classic tales, and we've dug that recording out from the archive for this episode!


    Gazza talks at length about Euro 96 including his famous goal against Scotland, borrowing Teddy Sheringham's boot for the game against Holland and being banned by the Queen from attending Buckingham Palace!


    We hear about Italia '90 including the moment he almost knocked out Gary Lineker's wife, his feelings when he received a yellow card against Germany and his memories of Sir Bobby Robson.


    Plus, we hear about the time he dived into a lobster tank at a fancy restaurant in Rome, get the real story of his infamous altercation with Vinnie Jones and find out why Ally McCoist HATED living next door to him (spoiler: it involves fireworks).


    But that's not all, Gazza also talks about his days cleaning Kevin Keegan's boots at Newcastle (and almost leaving them on the bus home), confesses to destroying a changing room with a stolen lawnmower and reveals how his transfer to Tottenham made him an enemy of Sir Alex Ferguson.
