Premier League referee Coote suspended over alleged video ... on 10:56 - Nov 12 with 1134 views | union_jack | I’ve not got over that assault on Manning (?) at Luton a few seasons ago. How the hell that wasn’t a straight red u will never know. The Burnley penalty Sunday is another headscratcher. There was far too much doubt to give that at the time in the game that he gave it. He decided the outcome with little more than a guess. I’ll get over it one day hopefully.😒 | |

Premier League referee Coote suspended over alleged video ... on 12:39 - Nov 12 with 1050 views | ReslovenSwan1 | Alcohol had clouded my judgement in the past and that applies to most of us I would guess. It is 4 years old apparently which raises the spectrum of potential blackmail. "Play ball or we release this video which will end your career". It is more important to identify the source of the video. | |

All referees will have a bias towards other teams and dislike towards some, to pretend otherwise is silly. The second video is not a good look either but i don't believe it breaks any PGMOL/FA rules? A suspension for a few months/end of season is ample punishment. | |

Premier League referee Coote suspended over alleged video ... on 17:44 - Nov 14 with 481 views | KeithHaynes | I agree on the first bit, and now wonder why when Keith Hackett who was the PGML chief six years ago was shouted down when he suggested drug testing for refs. The last bit does break the rules for the refereeing body, plus it’s a criminal offence, and not based on beyond all reasonable doubt. The balance of probability is enough. Can’t have people adjudicating world football outcomes who has this lack of integrity. If it was a member of the three public services we all rely on then they would be sacked, especially the police. Yes, they now have counselling and drug related stuff if the person admits their offending but the general attitude is get rid. Coot should be talking to his agent and working out a future book deal and Sunday Newspaper trilogy, that pretty much all he has left. Although that would earn him millions for sure. | |

Premier League referee Coote suspended over alleged video ... on 18:24 - Nov 14 with 418 views | max936 | He's on about Klopp being arrogant well he's just as bad and he's thick as mince to have said what he did and to snort whatever he did along with being naive to think that those vids wouldn't find their way into the public domain, just proves my point about him being thick! Good enough for him useless Ref anyway, although he's not alone in that regard. | |
