If he knew he was going to be outed one way or other, why didn’t he go elsewhere? Like SKY or BBC?
Dont let that rag profit from his misery?

Perhaps the answer might just be simple: highest (and perhaps only) bidder.

Just wondering if that earlier reply was directed at me in any way… but if it was
…at the end of the day, he was doing his day job on the pitch, until the story broke about him slagging off Jurgen… Surely if he had ‘mental’ issues - the PGMOL have failed in their due diligence monitoring the H&S, care and attention toward their employees… and he should not have been refereeing in a highly volatile, anxiety inducing environment…! For all we know, the pressures from Howie being short handed, has pressurised Coote to work when he wasn’t well enough… Who knows eh.
However, if these ‘mental issues’ have only just come to the fore since the news broke, or the video surfaced… and what has it been, just a few months… then no doctor worth their salt, would be able to correctly diagnose, what exactly is wrong inside this guys head, in such a short time…!
It’s not as though he was in a mental ward of sorts being monitored or assessed on a daily basis.
I mean Coote can’t have it both ways can he… He either had issues before, in which case, he seemed to function well enough to draw his wages and the money FIFA pushed his way… or, he knew there was something wrong with him, yet he continued his duties, knowing full well, he was incapable of fulfilling them to the letter.
The timeline certainly needs scrutiny, rather than him spouting, what could well be, generic bullshit, regarding his well being
I think sky might have lined up an interview with him
I would.

Probably another reason we don’t want to join a Perez run league.

I am sorry I was not moaning as you put it but only was wondering why they were singing it. Now that it’s origins has been established I am quite happy for Everyman and his dog to sing it even though we sing it better than anybody else and with a lot more heart and meaning.

Because the grass is always greener…
Watching our games and various Bundesliga games, I’d take the latter. It’s nice being able to watch a game and not notice the officials. Although, I did notice the ref in our PSV game who kept getting in the way was German.

There are really awful ones and ones that make one or two bad decisions and they are remembered forever.
It is true, not all are out to screw though there are 4 you’d wonder about.
Ancelotti would probably feel different if he had managed us, after all Pickford’s lunge was when he was manager. Guys a massive prick.
