I think the Klopp comments were survivable, sniffing coke on camera not so much

 

[Norman_Conquest]

What a silly lad, thrown a good career away.

The future doesn't look good for him and just hope he's got a good support network around him.

David Coote?

More like, David (given the) Boot(e)!

 

[RavsFan]

Is he having a leaving do?

 

[parmoboy]

Feel bad for him but he should have known better than to let someone film him in that scenario.

Hope his mate is proud of himself.

 

[TeaCider]

Yeah, the rampant class A drug use being caught on camera was obviously going to get him sacked.

 

[RavsFan]

He’ll probably get a job abroad somewhere.

Whatever caused the release of the videos is a good thing though, well done to those campaigning for this outcome outside the PGMOL Headquarters.

I’ve been saying for a while refs need to be drug tested based on the performances over recent yrs , and if it it takes an age for an emergency ref to get his ar$e ready as a sub ref somethings wrong . They should always be prepared in advance , what else do they have to do ?

 

[weemoby]

He deserved to be sacked.

But I hope the people around him are looking after him. We've been here before (and we will be again), with trail by social media. It's just a job that he was poor at it.

Feel bad for him but he should have known better than to let someone film him in that scenario.

Hope his mate is proud of himself.

Or how about don’t be a drug rat. He has no-one to blame but himself.

If he gives up his pusher give him treatment and help.
