David Coote is being investigated by the Premier League after a video was leaked which appeared to show him insulting Liverpool. The referee has been suspended pending this investigation.

Coote has had many run-ins with Liverpool over the years and made a number of shocking decisions against the Reds. There have long been suspicions that he has some agenda – and this video, if real, confirms many fans’ feelings.

David Coote answers

The Mirror reports that Coote had originally claimed the man in the video wasn’t him, he has now admitted that it is so. This came after the Premier League had the video analyzed by “tech experts” as a possible deepfake.

However, in a bizarre twist, Coote says he doesn’t remember making this video. That’s a strange claim, considering the man in the video clearly knows he’s on camera, and at one point even addresses the video and says it shouldn’t come out.

But it is like that. If that’s really Coote, then it’s a scandal. Liverpool has yet to respond as it awaits evidence of its authenticity.

So you can expect this one to run a little longer.

The next steps are about actually verifying that this video is about Coote. Things look terrible given the history with Liverpool Is actually him.

Der Spiegel understands that this is certainly the case.
