    He lost his job for accidentally revealing the reality that he - like every human being - holds bias. In the case of Klopp he didn’t like Jurgen Klopp on personal level and spoke about his nationality in a derogatory way. Unfortunately for him his job was high profile and the integrity of the game was in question. If someone is daft enough to believe he is the only one with a similar bias - the only ref that doesn’t like a certain manager or who calls Germans - Germans or Fritz or Kraut or whatever… and the only ref to have voiced it,.. that’s their problem. To date he is the only one to have been caught.

    The latest news about this pathetic little man is very disturbing indeed BUT to claim his comments about Klopp were akin to racism - to me at least is baffling.

    But fully expect the usual suspects to jump all over it and accuse him of starting the decline of the west single handed.

    I mean not only is Coote a Caucasian - but even if we were to leave race out of the equation and divide the Caucasian race up into sub groups - David Coote is an Anglo Saxon (Germanic)….


    I would love to have a description also of the German race - and how they differ from what is presumably the Belgian race…? or the Dutch..? careful now
    In other languages race is related to the language spoken, or the nation of that race.

    So you can easily define a person as German race, or German-Speaking race.

    the last paragraph is paranoia at its finest


    "He was sacked by referees' body the PGMOL in December 2024 following an investigation into a video allegedly showing him making derogatory comments about Liverpool and the club's former manager"


    thats from the BBC ^^^ may not have been racism.. BUT it did mention him being German in the conversation with his so called friend.. Like being German was the bad thing in all this..

    In “other languages” you can label many things as you like - there is often no direct translation for many words in English.

    But in the English language - which is the language in question race has zero to do with nationality. As you well know

    I am not playing word games at all.

    Come on how would you describe Klopp’s nationality?
