       David Coote- Brentford vs Aston Villa

       Firstly, Lee Betts replaced Mark Scholes, who according the PL
       website was both AR2 and AVAR.
       Secondly, a crazy game of football with abysmal behaviour from
       both sides especially serial offenders Emi Martinez and Neil
       Maupay. However, David Coote didn't cover himself in glory. The
       first red card is a shocking tackle from Ben Mee. David Coote
       who was stood five yards away with a clear view of the incident
       somehow only gives yellow, before VAR intervenes. At the screen
       he is shown the exact same angle which he was looking it at
       from, a clear red which he really should have seen. At this
       point he lost credibility. Two minutes later he ignores what
       looks like a clear penalty.
       Then Martinez and Maupay acting like children at the end, Coote
       was too slow to react and prevent a potential outburst, perhaps
       AR1 could have helped. Results in a correct red card for a push
       round the throat.
       Both managers rightly booked (just as Areta was again) and
       imagine some FA charges will be going to both teams with 9
       yellows and 2 reds being dished out

       I have never seen mr coote fair well in a game that gets
       tempestuous and often his style of officiating leads to a game
       getting tempestuous.
       With regard to the Mee challenge Another sg1 official that
       cannot see SFP under his nose, perhaps he was to near? Var
       bailed him out.
       Maupay angered Martinez by barging into him after The goalkeeper
       made a hash of a save resulting in the ball going out for a
       corner kick.
       Things then boiled over again and two hotheads got involved
       again minutes later, Martinez first pushing Maupay who fell to
       the floor and tried to pick him up off the floor by grabbing his
       shirt collar, the keeper was lucky only to receive a yellow
       card. Emery was booked for entering the field close by the
       dugouts trying to calm down his over enthusiastic goalkeeper.
       A melee occurred in the goal after watkins scored what turned
       out to be the winner, his celebration was a little over the top,
       however after the game it has been revealed that a supporter
       behind that goal had been abusing him all game and the
       celebration was aimed at the said person. Personally i dont see
       that as mitigation but can understand his feelings.
       With reference to the red card for Kamara cant condone his
       actions, silly boy, but i have seen players do worse things and
       stay on the pitch.
       Not a great advert for football, from both sets of players and
       officials.

       Having watched the highlights, the incidents towards the end
       looked like Coote really allowed them to get out of hand. If he
       was more proactive, got himself to the incidents quicker he
       could potentially have saved it from becoming ridiculous!

       Tough for any referee to control that when the players are
       behaving so badly but I'm afraid Coote seems to have very little
       natural authority about him and doesn't appear to impose himself
       on the game when it's necessary to do so.

       Indeed. A referee with little natural authority who has failed
       to excel at any level but has continually been pushed ever
       higher in the refereeing hierarchy. No surprise when something
       like this happens.

       I never cease to be surprised at the amount of gamesmanship with
       which Martinez routinely gets away. Maupay was undoubtedly
       foolish to give him the chance to roll around in mock agony, and
       thereby to securing YCs for both of them - which were correct
       sanctions IMO. However, in virtually every game in which I have
       seen Martinez play he manages to escape with - at worst - a YC,
       usually issued in the 90th minute, notwithstanding the fact that
       he has been blatantly time-wasting since half-time, and warned
       accordingly, often on several occasions.

       Martinez escaping even a caution is glorious poohousery.

       He got booked just after the red card was shown to the Villa
       player

       Fair play to both managers for acknowledging their teams lost
       it, and they really did. Frustration just seemed to build and
       build with protracted VAR stoppages and Martinez and Maupay
       acting like weans, but Coote did seem to be wandering around
       like a fart in a trance not doing very much as things kicked off
       and I think he needed to be assertive sooner.  However players
       need to be better than that.
