I submitted a thread last year: http://www.officialforum.com/showthr...?threadid=6653
Well, tomorrow I was scheduled to go and call at the school where this incident took place. Tonight, the principal calls me and asks where I am scheduled to be tomorrow. I tell him at his place. He says that this not acceptable because the idiot principal from the other school has announced that his school will not play if I am calling. I tell him that 1. That ain't right to let this guy dictate who the officials will be or not be on the road. 2. I'm not the one to call about this problem, but he should speak to the assignment secretary, and by the way isn't this kind of short notice? I told him the guy was bluffing and wouldn't really leave and as far as I was concerned he proved this when they stayed to play the boys game after this rather large incident at the end of the girls game during which he made this same threat. (We'll get on the bus and go home.) I told the local principal ( a friend of mine) that while I was not totally unsympathetic to the rather difficult spot in which he was placed, there was no way that this guy should be allowed to get away with this.
I did not hear from the assignment secretary tonight, and am rather anxious to hear his reaction. I am both dumbfounded and sickened by the whole situation. Any thoughts from the board on this whole ugly mess would be appreciated.
