Paul Gascoigne has said that he never feared the media, but claims that lies throughout his career have cost him a significant amount of money.
In a lengthy interview with the author Rob Moore, the former England star said that inaccurate reports of him being unwell or in rehab abroad led to planned work being cancelled.
Gascogine, 55, also recalled how a woman almost fainted as he walked past her because there was a story in a newspaper that he had passed away.
