Troubled England legend Paul Gascoigne was left red faced after failing four times to kick a football through a hole in a funfair game.
The ex-footballer, 51, was caught on camera trying to win a £20 prize for hitting the target three times in a row at the Nottingham Goose Fair last weekend.
Gazza, considered the most naturally gifted English midfielder of his generation, struggled to even get the ball off the ground in his first two tries.

A young child is heard asking his parents: 'Is that Paul Gascoigne?'
A man, presumably the boy's father, then replies: 'Yeah, he was one of England's best footballers'. A woman then jokes: 'Yeah, WAS.'
One reveller told the Mirror that Gascoigne, who has battled drink and drug addiction, was unrecognisable at the fair last weekend.
'It was sad to see such a legend unable to kick a ball straight He desperately needs help.'

The footage comes after the footballing icon had his nomination for the Scottish Football Hall of Fame suddenly withdrawn just days before he was due to be inducted.
Gascoigne was listed for an awards dinner at Hampden Park a week on Sunday after being proposed by the public and chosen by a panel.
But controversially the name of the former Rangers star will no longer be put forward, with the Hall of Fame's committee citing 'concerns over the state of Paul's health'.
