About this listen

Gazza's tears in the 1990 World Cup semi-final launched the boom of interest in football that continues to this day. Suddenly, Paul Gascoigne found himself the centre of attention in a way that only George Best and David Beckham have ever experienced.

So much has been written about Gazza over the years, but he has said little - until now. For the first time, he talks in depth about the key events in his life: the injuries that threatened his career, what really happened when he was dropped from Glenn Hoddle's World Cup squad, his battles with alcoholism and other health problems, as well as his private life away from the spotlight. He also recalls the outrageous antics that have made the headlines, and discusses his hopes for his life after football.

Gazza is loved by fans of the game throughout the country, and his autobiography is quite simply the most remarkable footballing story you'll ever read.

Fab honest insight into a football legend, Gazza!

Really enjoyed the story and career insights. The narrator's NE accent makes the story come to life. Loved the honesty of this book. Gazza in his own words, warts and all. A football legend who was genius and flawed in equal measures. It's a story of a real human being who happened to be the most gifted midfielder of his time, despite chronically poor mental health and life long addictions. Seems so cruel but as the great man says himself, he doesn't regret his life and his love of football has remained constant. He says "I lived my dreams but never fulfilled my potential".....so honest, true and insightful. God bless you Gazza! We love you!

Too short

Stopped way way too early. Felt like book ended 20% into the story. Solid up to that

Honest. Tragic. Fascinating.

Most English football fans who grew up with Gazza will find this a fascinating read. For all the great moments he gave us / me, as a player, I wish his life had all been different for him.

Footballing Legend

Alarming story of what goes on inside the head of one of British football best midfielders not to mention a Rangers legend.

From the highs of playing for club and country to the lows of addition, anxiety and wife beating.

An eye opener.

Hope Gazza gets better

A very interesting and moving story

I did not know much about the personal life of this sportsman, but found his story very interesting. He did not read the book himself, but the narrator was excellent.
