Thank Christ Joe wasn't a Spurs fan, the first Mescaleros album would have had a song called Paul Gascoigne.

Each time he listens to it or somebody mentions it to him, I like to think of Tony Adams saying to himself, 'how the fuck is that a song about me?"

As for supporting, I suspect Paul was the real Chelsea fan and, Joe being Joe, he came up with a few fibs later on about his hardcore days watching them play from the Shed end.

That is also why I suspect Joe wasn't really into football as much as claimed.
Remember Purple Hayes funny story about Joe in the shed?

That's what the North Americans here accept you so readily.

When I saw the Meskies in 2000 Joe did a long intro to Tony Adams and was actually talking about Tony Adams. Can't remember what he said it didn't make much sense other than the fact Adams was a lunatic (alcoholic to be more accurate).
