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

I've gotta be honest, my first thought was that it's got to be fake. No referee is this stupid to say something like that on camera, surely. But equally, if it's fake, where are they getting any sort of accurate audio of his voice? It's easy to create accurate AI versions of people who have shitloads of videos online already. It's harder to do so with someone most of us have never heard speak.

I have absolutely no idea if its fake or not, mate.
Saying it is fake when its not just seems a ridiculous thing to do.
If he held his hands up, said it was after a few beers, with his partner and friends. Its been released now after a break up and hes then the victim.
It might not keep him in a job, but PGMOL would give him a tidy pay off. He would then go over to Saudi or the UAE.
It does not make any sense to lie and say ots fake.
Even if it is fake, the FA will have to be absolutely certain it is as doubts will remain. He may be put out to pasture, regardless.

I see the bbc are now blaming Coote for them not getting to 100 points (the year after we did it).

The victims, the same as the other failing , "We used to win everything, it's not fair" scumbags ,clutch at anything to ease the pain and fact we've just been better. 115 charges, oil money, unlimited spending blah fucking blah. Even that **** of an ex manager was at it. Grass roo long, too windy, cold, early kick offs, late kick offs. I've got an off for them all......fuck off!
 
Having watched the video, Genuinely what's he said bad enough for him to be suspended?

He thinks Klopp is a ****, What's the big deal?

So you now get a suspension for thinking somebody is a ****, Unbelievable.

It's not like he said "I hate Liverpool and gave the opposition loads of decisions to help Liverpool get beaten".

Ffs football now is worse than Coronation Street.

Just read that he's officially a Notts county fan.
He isn't. He's a rag. Said that on another thread.
I know 100% who him, Kavanagh and a football league ref support (which is a premier league team that he hasn't declared).

Edit - coote is also gay so putting 2 and 2 together the other lad may have been his fella who he recently split up and so released it as revenge.

Let’s really hope not.

Can't make my mind up on this. He's been a bit stupid by letting somebody record him saying that given his status as a Premier League referee but...he's human.

He's said that the Dippers played shite (which they might have done) and that he thinks Klopp is a **** because he's 'arrogant' and accused Coote of being a liar in the past. He's not said that he gave a dodgy decision against them because of those things.

He, and every other ref in world football, has opinions about the managers/players/clubs they officiate and will no doubt vent those frustrations/opinions to their mates. That's a given. Do we/fans/clubs/players/PGMOL expect referees to be robots who don't have emotions?

Yes. He's been stupid in letting somebody film it but fuck me, all he's done is give his opinion on a team/manager that he's been asked about.

The Dippers turning it into some big conspiracy does not surprise me one bit, though. Any opportunity to make themselves seem hard done to...

I agree. It's like the office junior making a mistake. It was stupid. He'll be punished for it. But it shouldn't mean the end of his career. I imagine he'll get a demotion though.
