BREAKING NEWSDisgraced referee David Coote hit with fresh ban - just months after he was sacked by the Premier League over leaked videos

Disgraced referee David Coote has been hit with another ban in the wake of the shocking leaked videos which lead to his dismissal by the Premier League.

Coote was sacked by the PGMOL, the referees' body, in December after appearing in several leaked clips, including one in which he insulted former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp. In another, he could be seen snorting a white powder.

The PGMOL found Coote's actions made his position as a Premier League official 'untenable' and the organisation headed up by Howard Webb terminated his employment with immediate effect.
