David Coote’s SHOCKING Liverpool decisions including DISGRACEFUL Odegaard call | OneFootball

Premier League referee David Coote is under investigation after alleged comments about Liverpool. Here's why fans are so upset.

If we're being honest, fans of every club believe referees are biased against them. Liverpool, however, have felt particularly suspicious in recent years that certain referees aren't entirely fair.

What happened on Monday only supports that. A video was leaked on Twitter that allegedly shows Premier League referee David Coote talking disparagingly about Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp.

Now, in the days of deepfakes and AI, you can never be 100% sure that seeing is believing when it comes to grainy internet videos. This does appear to be real, though, and the Premier League have now suspended Coote pending an investigation.

The man who certainly appears to be Coote is seen calling Liverpool s*** and then talking about how much he hates Jurgen Klopp. The video ends with a second man saying 'We hate Scousers'.

In other words, it's all incredibly damning. So why are Liverpool fans feeling so vindicated?
