If that's a deep fake, human civilization has significantly bigger problems looming than a ref scandal.

No, we aren't there yet. Deep fakes are good, and they are getting better, but they aren't at that point yet.
Of course, you don't need deep fakes to keep a considerable portion of society misinformed, but that's another discussion.

Considerable portion of society also doesn’t care if they are getting deep faked or not. But let’s not do this here

No one sober that's for sure, but he appears coked off his tits in that video

I was wondering if it's coke or alcohol, but that follow up video makes me think it could be a case of pure stupidity.

Will be interesting to see the pundit response. Should be pretty obvious who is getting fed by Howard Webb and who isn't.
I am not seeing a problem here? Not liking some blokes on a team doesn't mean he ever purposely sabotaged Liverpool. I suspect all refs in every major sport have people that they hate and like. This is no different. Coote I suggest is one of the better refs, still makes loads of mistakes, but not like Michael Oliver's level of debauchery.
Arsenal is at the bane of corruption compared to any club.

Speaking of him, he said the penalty in the West Ham - United game shouldn't have been called.

This isn't the conspiracy you're looking for.
Which Premier League club has the best record with Howard Webb as match referee?

I mean, that pen call was an all time bad VAR intervention. Even WHU homers were surprised by it.

Didn’t PGMOL apologize over it?
Well let me know when you have the video of a ref calling Arteta a Spanish see you next Tuesday. Will just say that I disagree with all of this until then.
This is the bar now.

Oh, there is corruption against all teams from certain refs. I don't disagree with you there by any means. Like a ref who grew up as a ManU fan will have a disdain against LFC. 99.9% of refs are not there because they want to, they all want to be players first and foremost. I don't think biases stop just because they transitioned from being a player to a ref.
However, there is a full-on level of corruption against Arsenal. It is league-wide and goes into the deepest parts of the FA and probably the FBI as well.

Let’s be fair, refs have already told us things we see on video for matches aren’t so. What’s the difference in this?
I get some guys have clubs they support. So they shouldn’t be allowed to officiate those games. Period.
It’s like working for the govt as a civil servant. You should be as apolitical as possible.
This guy should be tossed out. Accident or not, how can you trust him

No, not that much. BUT, there are special agents that can accept side jobs and give advice to certain organisations on how to prevent leakage of said corruption. CIA and FBI give advice to foreign powers all the time, who say they can't do it for an organisation against a sports club as well...
