In a shocking turn of events, referee David Coote has been sacked by the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) for his scathing remarks about Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
According to sources, Coote’s comments were deemed “unacceptable” and “unprofessional” by the PGMOL, leading to his immediate termination.
But that’s not all – Coote is also facing investigations by UEFA and the Football Association (FA) for his alleged misconduct. The referee’s future in the sport hangs in the balance, and it remains to be seen if he’ll ever be allowed to set foot on a football pitch again.
“Coote’s actions were a clear breach of the rules and brought the game into disrepute,” said a PGMOL spokesperson. “We cannot tolerate this kind of behavior from our officials, and we’ve taken the necessary action.”
Klopp, meanwhile, has remained tight-lipped about the incident, but sources close to the Liverpool manager suggest that he’s “furious” with Coote’s comments.
The football world is reeling from the news, with many calling for Coote to be banned from the sport for life.
“Coote’s behavior is a disgrace,” said one fan. “He’s brought shame to the game and deserves to be punished severely.”
Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story. Will Coote ever referee again? Only time will tell.
