What is going on?

BBC NEWS | England | Tyne | Gazza held after hotel incident

I wonder what's triggered it. He always seemed unstable, so I'm not really surprised.

I think on Sky News the writing that goes across the bottom said a family member had said it was a cry for help.

That was this afternoon when it was breaking news.

More likely a cry for help as he'd dropped his drink and couldn't find it.

he could have been one of our best footballers ever and it is a shame that his life has now descended to this-i saw him play way back and thought he was a tremendous prospect but now he appears to be going the same way as George Best

My understanding is that there was a fire alarm at the hotel where he had been staying for 2 weeks. There was apparently 'grabbing and a bit of verbal' when a porter tried to prevent Gazza going back to his room to get a coat.

I've been there done that! I didn't get sectioned! I suspect there's a lot of 'Hollywood' action here by various people wanting to see their names in print.

Apparently he had been 'a charming guest' up until this incident" the hotel manager said.
