Gascoigne accused by Kettering chief

Paul Gascoigne’s first venture into management ended in acrimony and the accusations from Kettering chairman Imraan Ladak that the former England midfielder’s drinking was out of control.

The 38-year-old has left the Nationwide Conference North side after just 39 days in charge, and although Gascoigne said in a statement he was still “committed” to Kettering, Ladak has refused to sell his stake in the club.
