David Coote, a referee known for his involvement in various football matches, has recently found himself in hot water after a series of concerning incidents. The Professional Game Match Officials Ltd (PGMOL) has suspended Coote pending a thorough investigation into his actions. It has been alleged that Coote attempted to organize a "drugs party" while officiating a match between Tottenham and Manchester City. This shocking revelation has caused quite a stir in the football community.
Coote's troubles began earlier this week when a video surfaced of him making derogatory comments about Liverpool and their former manager, Jurgen Klopp. In the video, Coote can be heard calling Liverpool "s**t" and referring to Klopp as a "German c**t". This behavior was deemed unacceptable, and Coote was immediately suspended from domestic refereeing duties by the PGMOL. However, the situation took an even more concerning turn when another video emerged, allegedly showing Coote snorting a white powder while on duty at Euro 2024.
The scandal has since caught the attention of UEFA, who have also suspended Coote and launched investigations into both incidents. According to a report from The Sun, Coote had even tried to organize a "drugs party" just minutes before he was set to officiate a major cup clash. The friend who was contacted by Coote revealed that he had been bombarded with messages from Coote on the day of the game, with the referee allegedly trying to arrange a party at a hotel for after the match.
The match in question was the Carabao Cup game between Tottenham and Manchester City on October 30, where Coote was serving as the fourth official. Despite being on duty, it is reported that Coote had booked a room at a Travelodge just before kick-off and sent a booking notification to someone else during the game. He even texted his friend again during half-time, asking if they were "getting ready" for the party.
This behavior has raised serious concerns about Coote's focus and professionalism on the job. It is alarming to think that he was allegedly trying to organize a "drugs party" while he should have been focusing on the game. The friend who was contacted by Coote during the match expressed their shock and disbelief, stating that they thought it was "surreal" for Coote to be arranging such activities during a high-profile football game.
Thankfully, the "drugs party" never came to fruition, as the friend ultimately declined to meet up with Coote. However, this did not stop Coote from requesting a refund of the booking fee. It is clear that Coote's actions have caused quite a stir and have raised serious concerns about his professionalism as a referee. The PGMOL's investigation will hopefully shed light on the situation and provide answers to the many questions surrounding Coote's behavior.
