Not so long ago it became known that Gascoigne was expelled from the Hall of Fame of Scottish football because of his lifestyle (Paul suffers from alcoholism and regularly falls into unpleasant stories, including police drives).
With this decision, Rangers head coach Steven Gerrard does not agree.
"Paul Gascoigne - My Hero. This is a football player I adored.. I bought video tapes and CDs with his games, collected T-shirts - everything connected with it ".
"Naturally, I am very disappointed with his exception to the Hall of Fame.. It is a pity, because as an incredible talent, as a player and as a person, he deserves to be there ".
"I do not know under what circumstances this decision was made, because I have nothing to add. But I love Paul Gascoigne and have to say about it ", - quotes Gerrard Sky Sports.
Himself a 51-year-old Gascoigne on this occasion, said that he did not need to be in the Hall of Fame to know how a good player he was and how his fans love him.
