They are clearly shirt lifters and the nature of the conversation shows they aren't that well acquainted with each other. The looks to me a like a hook-up that's gone sour down the line and he's decided to share it.

I will be honest. The last thing that came to my mind was that they were shirt-lifters. 

Great move from Coote, tell everyone I’m gay and that is why I did what I did and I’ll get my job back! Diversity and all that.

TBF, gay or not, he's not wrong in his assesment of Klopp and scousers being cunts is he?

Comes out as gay to the surprise of absolutely no one.

I wonder who the whistle blower was?

What has happened to get us to this sort of thing?

Can anybody supply evidence of something similar from the days before the Premier League existed?

His last match he reffed was Liverpool v Villa

Those pesky Football God's do love to have a piss take. 

Don’t do drugs, kids.

Become a PL referee and they’ll give you them for free.

Anyone remember the goal disallowed at highbury 01/02 sinclair or defoe i think it was.

Saudi Arabia beckons. They love a big name, that lot.

He was right about Klopp though, he is a cսnt.

6 Month contract now! I don't care

Paul Durkin. It was him who got the little shove from Di Canio.

I think this whole thing needs an overhaul now. 
The way the FA treat referees is like they are gods and their purity is beyond question. But they are human beings just like everyone else so why should anyone just accept that they are beyond being bent?

therefore you can’t just say they are beyond reproach you have to have checks and balances in place to make sure they are in line. They shouldn’t be able to discuss matches with friends and fans just like I’m not allowed to discuss trading details from my work. Even mentioning some shit is a disciplinary in some jobs. Refs should have to abide by that code so there’s no way anything can be construed as dodgy. 

the Leeds bet looks crazy on paper. Even in jest, no ref should be discussing anything like that during a season that they are in charge or really when working in the league. It’s mental and really puts into doubt how the game is reffed. Some decisions over the years have been hard to explain. 

I remember when we got someone sent off at Chelsea for having his leg half way up kicking the ball and the Chelsea player ran into him.. like wtf was that about?? They need to prove they are not dodgy and can’t be dodgy now. 
 

Whether it gets proven and there's compelling evidence it might, it will at least shine a big fuck off light on all the match officials now so they're on their best behaviour. Slightest hint of a dodgy decision (even more so with VAR noe it's here) and the heat will be on them. It'll make it harder for the so called big clubs to get away with big club bias. 

 

Gank, that was Paul Alcock that Di Canio pushed over.

Looks like the cat's out the bag with this one. Many fans believe there's corruption in the game anyway and this is only going to fuel that suspension further. 

Coote's needs better mates too by the sounds of it.

Yeah rather odd calling him out for bumping the thread when Coote is back in the news, and this is potentially more serious than him taking a bit of gear.
