No mate. I was taking about the other video that UEFA are taking an interest in.

I’ve not followed it particularly closely for updates on the story but the initial suggestion was that he was alone in his hotel room at the Euros, filming himself doing a few lines and then forwarding it on to various people, for approval presumably.

Haven’t seen that. Don’t need to see a video of him doing lines for me to appreciate that he was on it in that other clip.

Most definitely 'on it'.

The likes of Anthony Taylor have a base salary of £100k a year and also receive £1500 a game apparently. There’s enough financial remuneration to take shit from the likes of Klopp, where do I sign up?

10 years ago I was at a meeting with Howard Webb. At the time he said that he received £150k retailer from the PL along with £3k per game. On top of that he got a £50k retainer from uefa along with £5k per game. And to add to that he got £25k retainer from fifa along with £2k per day that he was still involved in the World Cup.
I think with inflation the current lot may be on a bit more.
1 of the lads I know who is a current assistant gets £1500 per game when he's on var.

Was discussing this today with a colleague. With regards to his actual remarks, and taking aside that they're against Liverpool, are they actually career ending? Should they be?

I would have said so when it broke, but now after a few days.... He called someone out on their behavior, and let's be honest anyone without Liverpool glasses on could see klopp was a bit of a dick, clearly loved himself and loved to take it out on others when things didn't go his way. Coote's embarrassed himself, it's massively unprofessional, but is it really career-ending?

Now bringing in the Liverpool and premier league factor.m, the level of scrutiny of the world's most viewed league and the constant sense of injustice from Liverpool fans... If it was against Chesterfield, would anyone care? If it was on the premier league last season against Sheffield United who, apart from their own fans, is calling for his career to end and claiming they lost out because of it?

I actually think, as others are saying now too, the pretty obvious "under the influence" angle is of much more concern.
