That does depend on who were, or would have been, the other party participants. If it’s other refs then PGMOL would be truly fucked.

Odds-on that Guardiola was the first one to accept the invitation.

Guardiola probably referred the vendor too.
Didn’t turn up because the match went sideways.
If this is indeed the league Cup match that was held earlier which City lost.
Here’s what will happen:
In january we’ll have 15 points lead over the second placed.
Some court will order PGMOL to be dismantled.
Season suspended.
Other teams and fans will ask for the season to be scrapped.
Season ends in august without fans because reasons.

Nobody ever says “drugs party” unless they have never touched an illegal substance.

So if Coote is dirty what about Simon Hooper?
Finally remembered his name when played Spurs and the shapes pundits were twisting themselves into to justify the mess.
House of cards

This is pure bullshit. I was seeing some comments a few days back on a Twitter thread which was going down the same route. i.e. ’ Poor fella … got an addiction problem … needs help and support.’
One does not get addicted to cocaine , at least not to the powdered stuff ( crack is an entirely different beast ). You don’t wake up in the morning desperate for a fix because your body is in withdrawal. You choose to do cocaine because it makes you feel like the coolest , smartest person in the room for about half an hour. In point of fact the opposite is true , it turns you into an insufferable boor who acts like a fucking idiot. That you persist with it for more than a short period makes it all the worse and points to something seriously lacking in your psychological and emotional make-up.
If PGMOL does decide to stand by their man , or at least mitigate the damage done to both parties , and pursues this narrative then it should be called out for what it is , a self-serving and cynical excuse for behaviour that doesn’t deserve any sympathy whatsoever.

I am wondering whether a lot of the “bent ref” narrative could simply be explained by the officials being off their tits on coke.
I was looking up the effects on driving and typical risks include: feeling overconfident, lack of judgement, poor decision-making skills, acting impulsively, difficulty concentrating. I’m guessing that would make for bad refereeing as well.
The thing with refereeing is that it requires an individual to concentrate on several things at once. That’s not something that everyone can do even when compos mentis. I’m reminded a bit of the old basket ball video test. A surprising number of people get it wrong.

Not for me. There’s a deep rooted culture and attitude problem through the PGMOL before we even get started on their influence on games and results.
Coke is the result of that attitude issue. Unprofessional, arrogant, above the rules, untouchable and so on.

I drove from Crystal Palace to Brixton on coke one night in the eighties.
It took about two minutes and I was the coolest fucker who ever held a steering wheel.

I managed Düsseldorf Airport to Münster in under an hour. Company car and Motörhead on the stereo seemed to do the trick.

Imagine if we’d known that we could have become referees and lived out our drug fuelled fantasies eh RW?

Based on the pictures out there showing referees on jollies to the Far East, off their faces and draped over prostitutes, I think there is a betting scandal brewing.

If you’re right, I look forward to massive doses of,
‘We don’t cheat! This is outrageous!’
Like when a Brit/Aussie/Yank gets done for PEDs…it’s always those sneaky ‘other’ people who cheat.
