Career
Coote, a striker, came through the youth system at Norwich City, for whom he scored 3 goals in 61 appearances. Norwich sold Coote to Colchester United for £50,000, but was unable to establish himself in the side, and, after a loan spell at Bristol Rovers where he scored once against Leyton Orient, he was released by Colchester shortly after the start of the 2003-2004 season. Since leaving Layer Road, Coote has played for a series of non-league clubs in Norfolk including Wroxham.
He currently plays for Rampart Signs Football Club in the Halls Group Great Yarmouth Sunday League Division Three, and Carpathians Football Club in the Great Yarmouth and District Football League Division 2.
Coote, who is now a sales manager for Brighthouse, said: “I did have some injury problems. I just fell out of love with football and am now moving on with my life - which is a good life.”.
