Premier League referee David Coote has been suspended following the release of video footage in which he is heard calling Jürgen Klopp a “German cunt” and referring to Liverpool as “shit.”
The remarks were made after a 1-1 draw between Liverpool and Burnley during Project Restart in 2020, where Coote described Klopp as “arrogant” and claimed he accused him of lying.
Just before his suspension, Coote officiated Liverpool’s recent 2-0 victory against Aston Villa.
The Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), which is responsible for overseeing match officials in professional football in England, said:
<blockquote>
David Coote has been suspended with immediate effect pending a full investigation. PGMOL will be making no further comment until that process is complete.
</blockquote>
As reported by <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/nov/11/referee-david-coote-video-jurgen-klopp-liverpool-pgmol-premier-league">The Guardian</a>, the controversial video appears to date from the 2020-21 season, featuring referee David Coote making derogatory remarks about Jürgen Klopp and Liverpool.
In the footage, Coote expresses disdain for Klopp, labelling him “arrogant” and recalling a previous incident during a match against Burnley, where he felt Klopp accused him of lying.
Coote uses explicit language, referring to Klopp as a “German cunt” and criticising Liverpool’s performance in a game earlier that day.
The conversation was recorded by another man, who also made disparaging comments about Klopp and Liverpool fans.
In the video, Coote and the man imply they are breaching COVID regulations by sitting close together. In a separate clip, Coote asks not to share the original recording.
The discussion includes a still image of Coote on the touchline with Klopp during Liverpool’s 7-2 defeat to Aston Villa.
In Liverpool’s next match, Coote served as the video assistant referee when Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford’s challenge on Virgil van Dijk, which resulted in an anterior cruciate ligament injury, went unpunished.
Coote also faced criticism from Klopp as the VAR for the 1-1 draw between Liverpool and Arsenal last December, where an apparent handball by Martin Ødegaard did not lead to a penalty.
Howard Webb, the chief refereeing officer for PGMOL, later said that the incident should have resulted in a spot-kick.
It is understood Liverpool feel it would be inappropriate to comment with an investigation underway
Under Coote’s officiating, Liverpool has won five, drawn one, and lost two of the eight matches he refereed during Klopp’s tenure as manager.

Premier League Referee David Coote Suspended Over Derogatory Remarks Against Liverpool And Klopp

The Premier Soccer League (PSL) held a meeting with the new ZIFA Referees Committee on Thursday, 14 September in Harare.
It comes as referees have been under intense scrutiny by some football stakeholders especially coaches and fans who accuse them of failing to uphold the highest professional standards.
This was the first meeting between the PSL and the new ZIFA Referees Committee since it was appointed.
The indaba was attended by officials from the PSL secretariat who were led by chief executive Kenny Ndebele and members of the new committee led by retired referee Norman Matemera.
Matemera, his deputy Faith Sibanda, Stella Ruvinga and Kuda Rusina attended the meeting.
Speaking to Zimpapers Sport after the meeting, PSL spokesperson <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/psl-meet-zifa-referees-committee/">Kudzai Bare said</a>:
<blockquote>
We hadn’t sat down with them before like we have done with the other committees.
So, we were just trying to find ways in which the PSL and the Referees Committee can continuously work together well; iron out a few issues and try to find ways to try and continuously professionalise Zimbabwean football.
So, it’s just part of the engagements we have with all our major stakeholders. It was important to meet them and discuss how we are going to proceed working together and things like that.
</blockquote>
The referees’ committee was installed by the new ZIFA Normalisation Committee on 01 August as part of the restructuring process prescribed by FIFA.

PSL Meets ZIFA Referees Committee

Football hooliganism reared its ugly head again on Saturday as Dynamos fans threw missiles at referees and injured one of the match officials during the 0-0 draw against Herentals at the National Sports Stadium on Saturday.
DeMbare supporters vented their frustrations towards referee Thabani Bamala and his assistants.
Bamala waved away two penalty appeals from Dynamos and also made some questionable decisions during the match, according to <a href="https://www.sundaymail.co.zw/dembare-fans-throw-missiles-injure-referee">The Sunday Mail</a>.
The hooligans then threw missiles at the officials as they made their way to the dressing room and injured one of the assistant referees, Edgar Rumeki, who suffered a deep cut on the arm.
They also threw objects at Herentals’ substitute goalkeeper Nevermind Antonio in the 72nd minute.
Antonio was shown a red card after remonstrating against the officials and he may face further sanctions from the Premier Soccer League (PSL) after he chose to go to the changing room via the pitch.
He also allegedly insulted a section of the Dynamos fans, who responded by throwing missiles, forcing play to be stopped for almost seven minutes.
DeMbare coach Herbert Maruwa bemoaned what he considered time-wasting by Herentals, saying it was killing local football. He said:
<blockquote>
It (time-wasting) is killing our football. But the good thing is that we play 34 games and this one is over.
</blockquote>
Herentals coach Kumbirai Mutiwekuziwa was not impressed by Maruwa’s remarks and accused the Dynamos gaffer of being a bad loser. He said:
<blockquote>
I have heard him talk about that several times when he loses points. If they are good, why can’t they win within those minutes?
We went to Chicken Inn, we lost and they withdrew ball boys, but we didn’t complain to the media. Let us not mix issues here.
</blockquote>
The issue of poor officiating has been topical in recent weeks, with FC Platinum coach Norman Mapeza threatening to quit football.
<blockquote>
Speaking after a 1-0 loss to Herentals in the Castle Lager Premier Soccer League at the National Sports Stadium on 01 May 2023, Mapeza said:
</blockquote>
I love soccer so much. I want to see these kids develop as footballers but these things are going to force me to quit football. Why am I here?
<blockquote>
I would rather go and rest. Someone can get hacked two, or three times in front of you, you leave it.
Let’s be honest, we are going nowhere (with our football).
Let’s help each other here, while we do our work, you (journalists) also have a role to play.
Let’s be truthful, is this what we are looking for in our football?
Let’s be honest, where are we going? We lost, it’s a game of football and I accept.
The emotions were too high, I had to say guys look, the match is almost over just continue.
I even asked the fourth official how many minutes have been added and he said he had not been signalled.
Signalled by who when the 45 minutes in the second half had already been played?
</blockquote>
In May last year, Dynamos was fined US$4 000 while their team manager Richard Chihoro was slapped with a US$2 000 fine for disturbances that occurred when DeMbare played Bulawayo Chiefs in a PSL match at Barbourfields Stadium in March.

Football Hooliganism: Dynamos Fans Throw Missiles, Injure Referee

Local football referees are becoming notorious for poor match officiating resulting in their decisions influencing the outcome of football matches.
ZIFA Referees Committee boss Bryton Malandule revealed that the organisation will descend hard on errant behaviour of match officials. He said:
<blockquote>You know, when we are talking about referees the idea is not just to crack the whip, we need to groom these guys but we also punish them if we feel they have done something that has influenced the result.
This week we received a complaint from TelOne citing some calls from the referees and what I can tell you is that we act on all these complaints, we have punished our members on numerous occasions without necessarily telling the press.
This season alone we have demoted another referee to Division One after we saw that they are not fit for the Premier League.
Some referees have been suspended for three games each, for wrong decisions, like there is an incident in which a referee gave a goal and allowed it to stand after adjudging that it had crossed the line when it did not.</blockquote>
Malandule revealed that the association will this weekend attend that FC Platinum versus Dynamos match to be played at Mandava Stadium.
He added that clubs are free to approach the association if they feel that decisions have gone against them.
