Coote come out as gay and given interview where talking about his problems.
Whatever happens with his career I can understand why a ref you’d hide that. Get far too much abuse as it is. Can’t imagine the abuse would get on top from idiot ‘fans’.
he said stupid things. He did stupid things. He did drugs while potentially officiating, but end of the day he didn’t hurt anyone. Apparently sober and had therapy, hopefully can just get on with his life now.
Should he go back to officiating? Probably note, actions unfortunately have consequences but should be allowed to live his life in peace now
