I would agree if he told you that the player was in control of the ball and the foul took place. Then you cannot change the call. But if he tells you that there was no control and this was still at TC foul, then we are having a longer discussion. And I am going to do everything in my power to convince him not to go with that ruling. Because if we shot FTs and we got it wrong, they are not going to just blame the official that called the foul. They are going to blame the crew. Even if this was not a blowout and a very close game, we cannot make that mistake without a discussion. Of course, there is only going to be something that we can change at the end, but I am not going to go into the locker room just assuming he was right. He will know how I feel.

Peace
