What do you get when you cross Paul Gascoigne and Liam Gallagher?
It sounds like the set-up for a joke, and the punchline is every bit as good as youd expect.
Oasis frontman Gallagher is perhaps one of the few public figures that youd back to go toe-to-toe with Gazza on a hellraising night out and the latters story of when the pair met saw both play to type.
Gazza on his meeting with Liam Gallagher
Well let Gazza himself pick up the story.
I was in a restaurant and about to go home, and a guy said, Liam Gallaghers over there,' said Gascoigne, speaking in an exclusive interview for FourFourTwo magazine, to coincide with the launch of his new book Eight.
Id never met him I said, F**k me and stopped the taxi. I went up to him he was sitting on his own, having a steak.
He said, F**king hell, sit down mate, how are you doing? Do you want something to eat?
I said, No, Im not hungry, Ill have a drink though. He said, OK, Ill go and get you one, so he went for the drink and I ate his f**king steak.
He went f**king off at me, going, Wheres my f**king steak, man? [Gazza attempts a Mancunian accent that somehow makes Liam sound American] I went, Ive ate the c**t.
He said, You c**t Ill go and get another. But he didnt, he came back around the corner with a fire extinguisher, set it off and absolutely slaughtered us with it!
