David Coote | Charged with making indecent video of a child (p57)

Ahhh yes I see Coote is doing what Schofield did. Come out as gay and the world calls him brave, to stop the backlash about sleeping with a boy. Although one lady poster will tell you Schofield is the greatest human being in the world.

Coote pretty much boasted of cocaine use and his corrupted ways and is using being gay to justify his actions. It's pathetic and of course the left leaning people are lapping it up.

Nobody gave a crap about anyone's sexuality 30 years ago. I'd be on a tube travelling home where blokes would be kissing and nobody battered an eyelid or cared. Same as they didn't with famous singers in the 80s and 90s. The media desperately love to make out we are living in the dark ages.

Using your sexuality to mask bad behaviour is a deplorable act.

Which left leaning people are lapping it up out of interest?

I’ve not read anything whatsoever about it outside of this thread and the only media outlets I’ve seen mentioned are The Sun and Talksport.

It's made the BBC.
 
Well, the whole rainbow laces thing was apparently about empowering people at the very top of the sport to come out. Not sure any of us thought it would be an official rather than a player, but well done him and congrats to the laces campaign.
 
The Sun have clearly gone to him saying that they know, so he can give them an interview or they can ruin his life. He chose the former.

I don’t think this theory holds up. The newspapers all knew as soon as the scandal hit because it was put on social media at that time, so why delay months and months. Also tabloids don’t really force out people anymore because it’s really unpopular with the public and has been made illegal in a bunch of countries, if they were to do it, the editor would end up in front of a select committee defending their right to expose the personal life a retired referee. He’s just not worth the negative exposure. Also would you sell the exclusive to the bastards blackmailing you? Or would you go somewhere else to fuck them out of the exclusive.

More likely he’s retired, so no longer worried about getting homophobic abuse from 30,000 people every week, is unemployed so could do with the money, and potentially wants to move into some sort of media career.
 
If you're going to apologise to the dippers, i don't think the sun is the best way to do that.
Absolute weapon of a bloke who's taken a few quid over actually trying to sort his life out. Deserves all the shit coming his way.
Have you ever thought that it might just be The Sun who are the "Absolute Weapons"?
Just think, have they got form for being an "absolute weapon" organisation?
Are they enough of an "absolute weapon" organisation to know what you've written in the first section is true?
Do they know that if they are the only people offering the money and the story that he has no choice but to go with them?

It's all stage managed for the most drama and outrage. Clicks for cash or cash for clicks, whichever way it is it's all media spun bollocks.
 
It is always fascinating that his sexuality became an issue, as he was acting a complete tosser. So his sexuality didn't stop him becoming a top referee in England, it never put him off, he must of reffed to a good standard to get to where he did, the video was from years ago apparently but it being leaked has caused issues about his sexuality? Very bizarre.

Reminds me of Delli Ali, now what he went through as a youngster doesn't sound pleasant and I hope them demons can be fought. But it is strange that despite that he managed to work his way up in football, get to a premier league club, play in a champions league final, called up for England and playing in major tournaments. Then when his form turns and he can't get a game for love nor money, he releases his story about abuse he suffered as a child. Mad how that wasn't known at his heights and his turn around to be celebrated, instead it is used as an excuse. Just like Coote here.

As a left leaning gay person I can tell you my intial to this Sun article was "oh fuck off" so I hope that gives you some reassurance.

Also didn't work for Schofield.

I think Deli Ali is very different, a chink the armour might not affect him when things are going well but when you struggle it can become the issue that sinks you. Someone will explain it better but I’ve known a lot of successful people unravel from childhood trauma.

Coote has had a cheeky line, talked shit & found out that some people you trust are cunts! Now he’s got to play the circus that exposed him for every penny he’ll get & he’ll be very well paid for talking shit for the tabloid pieces of silver.

I was very successful in business but unravelled in my forties thru childhood trauma. The gutter press wouldn’t pay me, tho’. Luckily I had a lot of equity in my house and lived on that when I couldn’t work. I struggled for about 15 years but I’m back to my previous bonhomie now. The mind is fine but the body is dropping to bits. Saved by City and Bluemoon. Poorish but happy!
Tempted to delete this.
PS I won’t delete it, as it seems to have helped some people. A bit embarrassing, though.

He doesn’t excuse his behaviour on what he said on that video down to his sexuality, he admits what he said was completely wrong and he deserves the punishment for it.

Mate, I’m delighted you’re coming through it. We are bulletproof & carefree in our youth but those injuries catch up with us.

Best wishes

That's very well put. Think Delle fills into the category of people that put their trauma in a box and didn't talk about it and avoided opening those memories wherever possible.

Once he started struggling with form or the change to a tough love manager like Mourinho, those wounds seem to have opened up again.
 
Everyone of these fuckers that get caught out doing or saying something they shouldn’t have blame it on drugs or sexuality it’s like watching the same fucking interview time and again
