Coote was sacked earlier this month after the emergence of a video in which he made derogatory remarks about Liverpool and their former manager Jurgen Klopp. Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) said that a thorough investigation had concluded he was “in serious breach of the provisions of his employment contract, with his position deemed untenable”. “Supporting David Coote continues to be important to us and we remain committed to his welfare,” PGMOL’s statement on December 9 added. Coote had the right to appeal against the decision but PA understands the Nottinghamshire referee has decided not to. The video which triggered PGMOL’s investigation into Coote’s conduct first came to public attention on November 11. In it, Coote is asked for his views on a Liverpool match where he has just been fourth official, and describes them as “s***”. He then describes Klopp as a “c***”, and, asked why he felt that way, Coote says the German had “a right pop at me when I reffed them against Burnley in lockdown” and had accused him of lying. “I have got no interest in speaking to someone who’s f****** arrogant, so I do my best not to speak to him,” Coote said. Later in the video, Coote again refers to Klopp, this time as a “German c***”. The Football Association opened its own investigation into that video, understood to be centred on that last comment and whether Coote’s reference to Klopp’s nationality constituted an aggravated breach of its misconduct rules. The investigation by PGMOL which led to Coote’s contract being terminated is also understood to have looked at another video which appeared to show Coote snorting a white powder, purportedly during Euro 2024 where he was one of the assistant VARs for the tournament. European football’s governing body UEFA also appointed an ethics investigator to look into the matter.

Sarkis Izmirlian, chair of BML Properties Ltd. and the original developer of the Baha Mar resort in Nassau, Bahamas, said, “This is just another example of CCA, and its multibillion-dollar parent company China State Construction Engineering Corporation (“CSCEC”) attempting to evade responsibility for its actions by hiding behind a Chapter 11 proceeding.” In October 2024, New York Supreme Court Justice Borrock handed down a 74-page decision against CCA and its affiliates detailing multiple instances of fraud and usurping funds at the highest levels of CCA related to Baha Mar, and awarded over $1.6 billion to BML Properties. The judgement clearly states that: “I am confident that both the bankruptcy judge and the New York appellate court will see CCA for what it is, a company fraudulently managed by bad actors. We will take every step necessary to enforce our rights against CCA and all those who orchestrated CCA’s frauds, including its parent CSCEC,” said Izmirlian. Note to the Editor: China State Construction Engineering Corporation (“CSCEC”) is majority owned by the Chinese Government and traded on the Shanghai Stock Exchange under ticker 601668.

Two high school students and their families sued their high school and school district, alleging violations of their First and Fourteenth Amendment rights as well as Title IX protection. A California high school caved to a student uprising after hundreds of students showed up wearing T-shirts that read "Save Girls' Sports" to protest a trans athlete on the cross-country team, defying the school's latest dress code. The school had previously put students in detention for wearing the shirts. But a source told Fox News Digital that the school did not dress-code students when they showed up wearing the shirts on Wednesday. Parents of the school's students provided an update to California Family Council outreach director Sophia Lorey, claiming that administrators had a meeting Wednesday morning where faculty was instructed not to dress-code students, Lorey told Fox News Digital. "Today students once again wore their ‘Save Girls Sports’ shirts," Lorey wrote to Fox News Digital. "According to the email sent out earlier this week from MLK HS Principal Leann Iacuone only the shirts that stated ‘XX=/XY’ should receive a dress code. Yet, as of now no student who is wearing that shirt today has received a dress code. I received information that there was a staff meeting today before school were the staff was told not to dress code." CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM Lorey added that students at neighboring schools have begun to wear the T-shirts as Martin Luther King's situation has garnered national attention. These schools include Arlington High School and Riverside Polytechnical High School, which share a school district with Martin Luther King. Ramona High School in Ramona, California, which is 83 miles south of Riverside, has also seen its students wear the shirts. The students have worn the shirts every Wednesday, resulting in discipline by school administrators. But detention and dress code violations never shuttered their spirit. Many students at the school have gone viral on social media by sharing details of the situation with photos and videos of them wearing the shirts. The student uprising came amid an ongoing lawsuit over two girls' cross-country runners who alleged their T-shirts were compared to swastikas by school administrators. Another student athlete on the school's cross-country team, Rylee Morrow, brought more national attention to the situation when she gave an impassioned speech at a school board meeting in November in a clip that went viral due to her conveyed fears of having to share a locker room with a biological male. Lorey commended the students for taking a stand and pushing the school district to withdraw its discipline on Wednesday. "By wearing their ‘Save Girls Sports’ shirts, these young leaders are showing that they won’t back down in the face of pressure or opposition - even from their own administration. It’s not just about athletics—it’s about standing up for the integrity and rights of female athletes everywhere," Lorey wrote. But anti-trans messaging isn't the only social media activity that has erupted from the school. SJSU TRANSGENDER VOLLEYBALL SCANDAL: TIMELINE OF ALLEGATIONS, POLITICAL IMPACT AND A RAGING CULTURE MOVEMENT On Wednesday, a trans athlete at the school allegedly made a private post on Instagram lashing out against detractors who have questioned and opposed trans inclusion on the school's girls' cross-country team. Multiple sources, including Lorey, have confirmed the message was posted to the athlete's private Instagram story. The athlete also allegedly expressed an intention to compete in girls' pole-vaulting and said that competing against male opponents resulted in disappointing finishes. In a statement previously provided to Fox News Digital, the Riverside Unified School District (RUSD) said it has allowed the transgender athlete to compete on the team because it must comply with California state law. "It is important to remember that RUSD is bound to follow California law which requires that students be 'permitted to participate in sex-segregated school programs and activities, including athletic teams and competitions consistent with his or her gender identity, irrespective of the gender listed on the pupil’s records,'" the statement said. "While these rules were not created by RUSD, the district is committed to complying with the law and CIF regulations. California state law prohibits discrimination of students based on gender, gender identity and gender expression and specifically prohibits discrimination on the basis of gender in physical education and athletics. The protections we provide to all students are not only aligned with the law but also with our core values, which include equity and well-being." The school said those who are upset by it should direct their anger to state and federal lawmakers. "As these matters play out in our courts and the media, opposition and protests should be directed at those in a position to affect those laws and policies, including officials in Washington, D.C., and Sacramento," the statement said. California has had laws in effect to protect transgender athletes in women's sports since 2014. That year, AB 1266 took effect , giving California students at scholastic and collegiate levels the right to "participate in sex-segregated school programs and activities, including athletic teams and competitions, and use facilities consistent with his or her gender identity, irrespective of the gender listed on the pupil’s records." Other high school and college students in California have expressed opposition to trans athletes in girls' sports.

(Courtesy of Sophia Lorey) The girls' volleyball team at Stone Ridge Christian High School in Merced was scheduled to face San Francisco Waldorf in the Northern California Division 6 tournament in November, but it forfeited in an announcement just before the match over the presence of a trans athlete. Those girls were commended at a ceremony held by women's athletic rights activist Riley Gaines at their own high school on Dec. 4. Meanwhile, another California transgender high school volleyball player was booed and harassed at an Oct. 12 match between Notre Dame Belmont and Half Moon Bay High School, according to ABC 7. Half Moon Bay rostered the transgender athlete. At the college level, San Jose State's volleyball team was at the center of a national media firestorm this season over the presence of a transgender athlete on the team and a teammate being involved in multiple lawsuits over the issue. The team saw eight of its matches forfeited, including a conference tournament match, amid the controversy, which only brought more national attention to the team as it made it all the way to the Mountain West championship game.

Mounties say a Chilliwack, B.C., man has been charged with three criminal offences after a crash between a tractor and a B.C. Highway Patrol vehicle during a 2023 protest. Police say the 54-year-old was arrested on Dec. 18 and will appear in Surrey provincial court on Jan. 16, charged with fleeing police, dangerous operation of a vehicle and assaulting a police officer with a weapon. RCMP said last year that the tractor was one of several vehicles involved in a convoy that began in Chilliwack and was travelling to Vancouver. The tractor driver sustained serious injuries in the crash that left an officer with minor injuries. WATCH | Surrey tractor crash that police say was linked to anti-SOGI convoy: Dramatic and unusual scene as tractor rolls over near Highway 1 in Surrey, B.C. 1 year ago Duration 0:30 One person has been taken into custody after a tractor crashed into a police car on Saturday afternoon, CBC's Jon Azpiri reports. Photos from the collision posted to social media at the time showed a John Deere tractor on its side, flying a black and white flag that read "stop SOGI 123," an apparent reference to a set of classroom guidelines on sexual orientation and gender identity. In a statement shortly after the incident, RCMP said members of the Highway Patrol were dealing with a service call at around 12:35 p.m. when they came across a tractor on Highway 1 that was "possibly involved in a protest." "They attempted to stop the tractor, which resulted in an initial collision when the tractor struck a police vehicle," said RCMP Staff Sgt. Duane Honeyman in the statement. "The incident ended when the tractor rolled over as it tried to take the on-ramp to Highway 1 westbound." Several protests erupted in cities across Canada last fall by those opposed to the educational resource intended to create more inclusive classrooms. 1 person in custody after tractor strikes police car, rolls over on highway ramp in Surrey, B.C.: RCMP IIO investigating Surrey tractor crash that police say was linked to anti-SOGI convoy The Independent Investigations Office issued a statement in February after concluding its investigation into the Highway 17 crash in Surrey, saying it had cleared police of any wrongdoing.
admits “have a lot of problems” heading into Sunday’s Manchester derby. A dreadful run for City – a set of results unprecedented in Guardiola’s glittering managerial career – continued on Wednesday night following the in the . The Premier League champions have now won only one of their last 10 games and host Manchester United on Sunday in another game. Dusan Vlahovic opened the scoring in Turin before Weston McKennie added a second to leave City 22nd in the Champions League table. Guardiola suggested the injury crisis his team have endured this season cannot be ignored, while he did praise his team for their performance. “There are many reasons. We have a lot of problems,” he said. “When you play without three central defenders and two holding midfielders, the structure in the middle doesn’t have the stability. It’s really, really tough. The team we played was really, really good. It’s Juventus in Turin, a strong team who is very good in transition and set pieces. Congratulate them. The results, of course, we miss something. We have to insist on our strength as a team will bring us a place where we’ve been in the last decade had revealed in his post-match interview that he believes City are lacking confidence and their tendency to over-complicate matters on the pitch is having an impact on their poor form. “It’s a big part of it and obviously that's a mental issue as well,” said the German. “You can see that. We sometimes, one action we miss the ball, lose a duel and you see that we drop immediately, lose the rhythm, they are able to break our rhythm with the easiest of things. They don't even need to do much "You have to do the simple things as good as possible. Work hard again, this is how you get confidence back, even in the game if you miss something, by doing small and simple things you get confidence back at the moment we are always doing the wrong things. "I feel like we know exactly what's going wrong. If you look at the most part of games even today we actually didn’t play bad, created chances, just missed to score, in these kind of games if you give away once chance it's not easy to bounce back.” When those comments were put to Guardiola, he said: “No, no we have done it today [play well]. “Today we have done really well, didn't lose many balls like in the past, we tried, we arrived in the positions. “Against Italian teams, defend so deep, so compact. Master of these kind of situations. We play who we are and we missed the result but the performance is there."
