Gascoigne, 49, was accused of “racially abusing” fellow customers, groping women and throwing money around, witnesses said.

He should have run for the US presidency.

49? That's 49 very hard years right there.

How would anyone know it was Gazza?

Looking scarily like Jimmy Page

less hair, bigger ears, more neck folds ... looks like death, barely warmed up

Page looks like he could still go on for years.

Jimmy's changed a bit since we first saw him, though:

Handy goal by Emre Can for Liverpool overnight...

Over in Rotterdam, brilliant scenes as Feyenoord will now win their first league title in 18 years.

Well done to Chelski.

did they win/acquire something in the shoccer of consequence?

I've seen terminal stage cystal meth addicts who looked better.

To be fair, they'd also quite likely be in a better place in life than Gascoigne.

SO after 45 years Huddersfield are back in the top flight. Well done them.

Jeez I love the promotion qualification process of the lower divisions in England.

Newcastle (and old boss of mine was delighted) and Brighton & Hove Albion were auto promoted after finishing way ahead of the next four (who were separated by 5 points). Reading beat Fulham and Huddersfield beat Sheffield Wednesday to make last night's promotion decider. Excellent stuff.

Seem to recall that Mike Gatting's brother played for Brighton many moons ago.

Imagine you are missed penalty taker in the playoff decider. Your incompetence cost your club $300m+.

And more recently, Joe Batting played for Brighton too.

Huddersfield went up with a negative goal difference. Considering their end of season form, I expected Fulham to go up. That went tits up.

Aussie Aaron Mooy calmly slotted his for the Terriers, while Christopher Schindler was as cool as ice to put Huddersfield into the EPL.

The agony of the fans (including Sir Patrick Stewart) and players in the shootout is palpable...
