'If proven, it puts PGMOL in a difficult situation'
- Published
This event with referee David Coote is one of those occasions where you can almost see the people at PGMOL with their head in their hands.
For a body that prizes integrity among its officials above everything else, for this to come out, it just fuels what already is conspiracies around virtually any club.
And if proven, it is sure to bring action against David Coote and puts PGMOL in an exceptionally difficult situation.
Coote has been suspended pending a full investigation and PGMOL are saying they will not make any further comments, but you can imagine what [head of referees] Howard Webb might be muttering under his breath when he sees what has come out on social media.
