Paul Gascoigne arrested in Leeming Bar in takeaway row


Gascoigne was arrested after an incident at a takeaway restaurant

Former England footballer Paul Gascoigne was being quizzed by police after he was arrested on suspicion of being drunk in charge of a vehicle. He was taken into custody on Sunday night after police were called to a disturbance at a takeaway in Leeming Bar, North Yorkshire.
The 42-year-old and another man were being questioned.
In December, Gascoigne was given a fixed penalty notice for being drunk and disorderly in Newcastle.

A North Yorkshire Police spokesman said: "At 9.10pm on Sunday, officers from North Yorkshire Police were called to a disturbance at a takeaway at Leeming Bar.
"Following inquiries, two men, aged 42 and 40, from the Newcastle area, were arrested on suspicion of being drunk while in charge of a motor vehicle.
"They were taken into custody for questioning and remain there."
The former Newcastle and Tottenham midfielder has faced a long battle with alcohol and drugs, and was detained three times under the Mental Health Act in 2008.
He told BBC Radio 5 Live's Victoria Derbyshire last year he had been clean of drink and drugs for four months, and had attended Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.

please get some help Gazza

Sad to see. The problem is you can't help someone who does not Want to be helped. He has had enough support offered but if he won't stick with any then he won't get better. I just hope he doesn't leave it to late.

This is hard for me to say;


but Gazza needs to get the FOOK out of England unless he wants to clean up.

Put him on a fookin airplane and send him out to Canada; I'll take care of him

Clean air, beautiful women, and multi-million dollar football turfs. What the fook else do you need man?

it is awfull to see one of the best players of the ball to end up like this. another best in the making, i really dont think he will ever stop the drinking tbh. i have read his books and although some parts are s fooking funny others parts really make you think about his struggles when not playing which is why a lot of the time he turned to drink.

Had the pleasure of seeing Gazza play a few times for the geordies back in the mid 80s, best player i've ever seen. Shame it's turned out like this for him. Bloody alcohol should be classed as a class A drug, why couldn't he of just been a stoner

Would you believe it Gazza has been arrested again for the second time in 48hrs!!...swanny
