Referee David Coote has been sacked after the emergence of a video where he made derogatory remarks about Liverpool and their former manager Jurgen Klopp made his position “untenable”.
Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) confirmed the termination of the 42-year-old Nottinghamshire official’s employment in a statement on Monday afternoon, saying that a thorough investigation had concluded he was “in serious breach of the provisions of his employment contract, with his position deemed untenable”.
