Referee Coote's new job. |
Coote lives in Newark, Nottinghamshire, and currently works for the Evri delivery company, which is based near his residence.
A couple was astonished to see Coote appear on their camera-equipped doorbell, delivering packages to their home. He shared, "I'm just trying to live honestly. I want to move on with my life, to rediscover a sense of responsibility and meaning. This job keeps me busy, but it's not a long-term solution."
A resident in the area where Coote was delivering packages shared: "My husband is a Liverpool fan, so he couldn't accept what he had said. When he saw Coote delivering the packages, he recognized him immediately. I was shocked too. But frankly, he brought this situation upon himself."
Last November, The Sun exposed a video of Coote calling Jurgen Klopp a "damn German." Shortly after, another clip surfaced showing him using cocaine at EURO 2024. Both incidents have ruined Coote's refereeing career.
Coote was sacked by the English referees' organization PGMOL last December and is currently banned by UEFA from participating in football activities until next June.
Sharing about his past, Coote admitted: "My drug use was impulsive, but I feel ashamed to have to confess it."
Nevertheless, Coote is trying to start over. Last month, Coote participated in a marathon to raise money for his uncle Mick, who suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). "Now I prioritize spending time with family and friends, the things that really matter," he said.
A close friend of Coote revealed: "David is a good person, he just made a stupid mistake and he knows it. Maybe one day he'll return to football, which still needs knowledgeable people like him. But for now, he still has to make a living."
