I have no interest in David Coote beyond his performances as a referee, which I have consistently called out as lousy.
Anything outside of that is between him, the others involved, and the law (if it has been broken), and is of no more concern to me than if it was about someone I'd never heard of.
If this affair exposes corruption in the game - then like the City charges it needs to be thoroughly exposed and cleaned up for the sake of us all, regardless of club allegiance.
Beyond that I've no desire to gawp at the sordid details of someone's private life.

It is salacious and ideal for an international week which now thst you pointed it out with your comment suddenly makes sense as to when whoever it has done this chose now to do it.

Ok... I'm going to have to do some more googling... Some of this news hasn't come across my desk yet.

Obviously I've seen the two videos. I saw something (I think on here) about texting with a kid... But it was on X so assumed it was fake. What else has happened?

Pictures of refs (multiple) sat round a table in a restaurant with one Asian woman per referee.

Is the implication that they must be sex workers?
It sounds bad, but I'd want to hear his explanation first before crucifying for that one.

Yeah, need more information on that... And if they're legal sex workers in that country it wouldn't bother me anyway.

They don't look like stereotypical sex workers.

Really, only the bias bothers me. The coke... Meh, that's more a legal thing than a sports thing. I mean, it's a bit unprofessional, but it doesn't impact me or Liverpool by itself as long as he isn't high during a match.

The drugs is by far the worse. He was doing drugs while he was working at the euros. Drugs and sport are an instant ban. And if he’s doing drugs then you it starts asking question was he on anything during any games working in prem, does he do favours for his dealer in terms of spot fixing etc

I'm not an expert on drugs, but isn't cocaine supposed to be a really short high? You snort in the evening and it's not impacting you by the morning?

Sure, if he's doing it before or during a match it might impact his ability to referee. If he's doing it in the evening, that's more a focus for law-enforcement more than a sports issue.

And yes, I suppose if he's doing coke, he's probably doing other stuff too... Which might impact his ability, but no evidence of that yet.

Can’t say I’m any expert so don’t know. But would have thought if doing it then it’s going to remain in your body for a while and that will surely have some sort of impact?

According to googling... Snorting takes about 3 mins to feel full effect and effects can stay in body for 45 to 90 mins.

Doctors can still detect cocaine present in body for days afterwards though... So it doesn't just disappear, just the impact does.

Now, if he's a heavy user, it can impact personality (including irritability) which could impact his ability as a ref. Also, if he was an addict and had withdrawals that could impact him too.

If he's just a casual user snorting after a game, hey that's illegal, and against many people's moral codes, but that wouldn't impact his ability to referee a game.... So I don't care (but police might, and PGMOL might not like being held in a dark light)

A heavy user, maybe it would impact his refereeing ability.

I thought they had lows after the highs so chase other drugs as well but don't know.

He looked smashed and not knowing where he was

I know this isn't your normal hangout mate, but can you tell him just how wrong this is? :emoticon-0112-wonde

This all seems to be being leaked via the rag, which lends credence to it being one source releasing things in stages to proper stitch him up.

That one has actual quotes from a ‘mate’ who was involved and getting the messages.

Someone looking for a pay day and jumping on the stories? Or the source behind it all?
