Gascoigne and fellow sinners given day off
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Paul Gascoigne may have collected both the players' and football writers' footballer of the year awards in Scotland, but he would revert to his alternative role of buffoon if he was to pick up a yellow card in the Premier Division at Kilmarnock today and miss next weekend's Tennents Scottish Cup final.
To make sure he cannot do anything so stupid, and with the club's eighth successive league title won, Gascoigne, Richard Gough, Andy Goram, Gordan Petric, John Brown and Alex Cleland are rested for the trip to Rugby Park. All of them are only one booking away from being banned for the Cup final.
