and then I took it in with my hands
around the rim.
Went to give it to him
and he took my head off.
You know.
Don't f-ing touch the top of a cup
where I've got to drink from' my son."
And he'd just put his feet up
and lie back in his chair.
So I had to go make him another one
and I made sure it was all done perfect,
and, you know, I made sure
I never touched that sheet again.
What are we doing? Are we standing out here
or are we going inside, or what?
- Going in, I think.
- Haven't been in, yet
I was just in awe of the man,
with England in 1966.
And he comes to the club
and I wasn't really in the youth team.
I was sub in that.
I wasn't really getting that much of a game.
You know, after I finished training,
go home and had a light bottle of pop,
fish and chips, and a bag of Minstrels.
And he pulled us aside and he went,
"Can I have a word with you?
I was, like, "Oof."
I was shaking a bit and I went, "Yeah."
And he went, "Yeah, you're a good player."
I went, "Yeah, I am."
He says, "How long have you
got left on your contract?
I went...
I said, "Yeah, I've got a couple of years."
And he went,
No, you've two weeks, you fat bastard.
You better start losing weight."
You know, I would like to think
it was puppy fat at 17.
Sixteen and a half to be fair...
Yeah, I was sixteen and half and then,
I stopped the Minstrels,
I stopped with the Coke, bottles of Coke.
Yeah, and I got weighed every day.
It worked, you know.
I'd been hardly playing for the youth team.
Within a month
I was captain of the youth team.
I was captain of the reserves.
And took them onto...
We got to the Youth Cup final.
Jack Charlton, he went,
"What are you doing tomorrow?"
Sort of thing, this was a Friday night,
after the game.
And I went, "I'm just gonna go back.
Just chill out, you know."
And he went, "I would like you to play
for the first team tomorrow."
And that was my start of my career.
Once I started playing for Newcastle,
it was...
The feeling was,
the buzz was incredible, you know.
Playing for your hometown, and that.
And then eventually, you know,
one minute you were looking at
the Gallowgate and seeing
the fans roar and that,
and then eventually scoring
in front of them, you know.
The feeling was amazing. It was fantastic.
Like, "Wow," just thinking,
"I've scored, I've scored.
"I'll tell me Dad. I'll watch it
on Match of the Day, "you know.
Then you hear the fans singing your name,
you know.
It's unbelievable.
Well, it's goals like that which have made
Paul Gascoigne, or Gazza,
as they all know him, a real hero
to the people who stand
