I was with Jimmy at the time and asked him to nip out and get four bottles of wine. He wasn’t happy about it, but I insisted.
That night I drank three-and-a-half bottles, took 11 sleeping tablets, woke up at 6am with the shakes, took a couple more tablets, finished off the wine, fell back asleep, had a treble brandy, another sleeping tablet, a smoke, and went to the game.
I was in a terrible state, shaking badly, so I had another treble brandy, took another tablet and went out on the pitch and played a blinder.
Afterwards I went straight home and fell asleep.
Next morning I asked Jimmy how I had done. ‘Look at the table’ he said, pointing to a big bottle of champagne. ‘You won Man of the Match.’

Just the sort of weak-minded sicko loser you'd look up to, Orson.
Paul Gascoigne
In the later parts of his career and especially following retirement, Gascoigne's life became
dominated by severe mental and emotional problems, particularly alcoholism
. He has been
jailed or sectioned on numerous occasions and his personal struggles receive regular coverage in the British press
. He has frequently attempted to live without alcohol, though rehabilitation programmes have provided only temporary relief.
His personal issues ended his coaching career, and he has not worked in football since being dismissed as the manager of Kettering Town in 2005
.
Gascoigne first entered therapy sessions in October 1998 when he was admitted into Priory Hospital after a drinking session where he drank 32 shots of whisky which left him at "rock bottom"; then-manager Bryan Robson signed him into the clinic whilst Gascoigne was unconscious.[185] He was released, at his own insistence, two weeks into the suggested minimum stay of 28 days.[186] His subsequent visits to the Priory became more infrequent, and he eventually returned to drinking alcohol.[187] In 2001 Gascoigne's then-chairman Bill Kenwright contacted Gascoigne's therapist at the Priory, John McKeown, who organised more treatment to help Gascoigne to control his drinking.[188] As part of the treatment he was sent to the United States where he had a stay at a clinic in Cottonwood, Arizona. He was diagnosed with
bipolar disorder
.[188][189] He stayed at the clinic in 2003 after he suffered low points working in China, and again in 2004 after retiring from football.[190]
In February 2008 he was sectioned under the Mental Health Act after an incident at the Malmaison Hotel in Newcastle upon Tyne. He was taken into protective custody to prevent self-harm.[191] He was sectioned again in June, and in September he was hospitalised after
he overdosed on alcohol and drugs in an apparent suicide attempt
.[192]
Gascoigne was arrested for a disturbance outside a takeaway in February 2010. The following month he was charged with
drunk driving, driving without a licence, and driving without insurance
.[193] On 9 July 2010 Gascoigne appeared at the scene of the tense stand-off between the police and the fugitive Raoul Moat, claiming to be a friend of Moat and stating that he had brought him "a can of lager, some chicken, a fishing rod, a Newcastle shirt and a dressing gown." He was denied access to Moat.[194] In August 2011 Gascoigne sued The Sun, claiming that its coverage of him during the Raoul Moat incident interrupted his treatment for alcoholism.[195]
In October 2010, Gascoigne was
arrested for drunk driving
. He subsequently admitted being
more than four times over the limit
at Newcastle upon Tyne Magistrates Court.[196] One day after being warned he could face a prison sentence for drunk driving, Gascoigne was
arrested for possession of cocaine
.[197] He should have appeared in court on 11 November to be sentenced for the drink driving offence, but instead he went into rehab on the south coast of England.[198] He was given an eight-week suspended sentence on 9 December 2010.[199]
In February 2013 his agent, Terry Baker, told BBC Radio 5 Live that Gascoigne had
relapsed again
: "He won't thank me for saying it but he immediately needs to get help … His life is always in danger because he is an alcoholic. Maybe no one can save him – I don't know. I really don't know."[200] Gascoigne was placed in intensive care in a US hospital while being treated for alcoholism in Arizona in a rehabilitation programme thanks to financial support provided by ex-cricketer Ronnie Irani and broadcaster Chris Evans.[201] He was
arrested for assaulting a railway security guard and being drunk and disorderly at Stevenage railway station
on 4 July 2013; he was fined £1,000 after admitting the offence, and ordered to pay £100 compensation to the guard.[202]
In January 2014 Gascoigne entered rehab for his alcohol addiction for a seventh time at a £6,000-a-month clinic in Southampton.[203] In August he was again admitted to hospital in relation to his problems following an incident outside his home.[204] On 23 October 2014, police were called to his home in Poole after he was in a drink binge; he was sectioned under the Mental Health Act the next day and taken to a hospital for a three-day detox.[205]
On 6 January 2017, a spokesman for Gascoigne confirmed that he had entered a rehabilitation centre in a serious effort to stay “alcohol-free” in 2017.[206]
On 20 August 2018, Gascoigne was arrested at Durham station by British Transport Police for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman on board a train
.[207]
In November 2018 he was charged with sexual assault
and was due to appear in court on the charge in December 2018.[207]
