David Coote, a Premier League referee, has been suspended by PGMOL after videos surfaced showing him making derogatory comments about Liverpool and their former manager, Jurgen Klopp, and allegedly using a white powder. The videos have prompted investigations by the FA and PGMOL, with Coote facing potential misconduct charges related to the remarks. Notable figures like Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher have weighed in, with Neville suggesting that Coote should not lose his career but be removed from officiating Liverpool matches. The situation has sparked debates about bias and the personal conduct of officials, with Coote now withdrawn from upcoming UEFA duties pending the investigation's outcome. Former referee Mark Clattenburg expressed empathy for Coote, citing the intense scrutiny referees face.
