Gascoigne.....

Artist known as Gazza becomes 'G8'

22 October 2004

Prince Once became a squiggle, while Madonna recently declared that she is now Esther. Now Paul Gascoigne - the artist formerly known for being daft as a brush - will henceforth be known as "G8".

The former England, Newcastle, Tottenham and Lazio midfielder, who recently resigned as Boston's player-coach, made his announcement on Wednesday. "G8 is right for us now," he said. "It sounds a bit like 'great', or at least it does with my Geordie accent."

Gascoigne said the name change would help him put his troubled past - he has battled against alcoholism and depression - behind him.

"Paul's not right for us because it's too closely linked with the past," Gascoigne said. "I just want to be the guy that enjoyed his football and entertained the fans."

I think it's the Geordie 'we', similar to the royal 'we' but harder to understand. :D

He should have his name changed for him, a name like ''wife beating scum'' would be a good name for him.

Every time I see or hear Gazza now, sorry G8, I just feel sorry for him. Solely because it's obvious he's got mental problems and his speech is all wonky ala the great Ali.
Sounds as if he's p!ssed all the time.

I agree, class player but something very wrong in the head with him, another one who has attacked a woman. What's wrong with these people.

Aye or even "wife beating, secaterian hatred inciting racist scum"! Actually, that includes a 5 syllable word! Sure he cannae manage that :D
His book in ma opinion would be expensive bog roll ;) surely he can't even write himself, though it's not that hard:

Beat up the wife, made a mockery of secaterian hatred in Northern Ireland despite being from Newcastle, made some racist comments, drunk to much, buggered up the career, got depressed, wrote a book"

Couldn't care less for the arsehole-doesn't matter who he played for :rolleyes: (though admittidly it fuels it). If a Celtic player scored and stuck his fingers in a gun shape behind a teammates knees it'd still be disgraceful :mad:

The mans a mentalist, always was one. Hes an ugly mentalist now though with his anorexic features and dyed blonde facial hair.

Was the rumour about him wanting to go to Cork true or what ?

Right enough of sitting on the fence about him, ;) totally agree with yer Liam
the bloke's a total d**khead.
No matter how much yer tried to avoid the hype about this superstar in 1990 who helped his country so much in that semi v Germany that he spent most of the game bawling his eye's out over not playing in a final that thankfully the rest of his teammate's did'nt play in either :D it was impossible.
He played up to the thick yob image to the full in front of the media and thankfully his antic's including battering his wife and bravely trying to cover it up by getting her seen to by his club docter are now yesterday's new's as well as other such classic's like telling the people of Norway to f off as well as trying to end other player's career's like he tried to do to Gary Charles of Notts Forest and f**king himself up in the process.
He represented the same thug mentality on the pitch as what follow's his national team around.
F**k him.
