If you whack the coach right then, you appear to be a reactionary jerk. He has the fans ear at that moment and if you whack him, it will appear that the coach is right.
But if you wait for the next opportunity, then push his buttons until he does something that appears to everybody to be deserving of a T, then reward him, you've just done what everybody expected. He won't have the fans on his side then.
If you subscribe to the pay side, check out Peter Osborne's series on Creative Ejections.

BITS, are you serious with this statement? You are suggesting that an official should "bait" a coach, this is unconscionable!
It would be bad enough to even consider such a thing let alone promote or attempt to apply it....shame on you.

You picked up on something that I should have. Your comments are dead on.

If one of our officials ever tried BIT's advice, he possibly could be an ex-official very quickly. That is completely unprofessional conduct. It also goes completely against what we are supposed to stand for- fairness.
Btw, I'm not surprised at the source though. Peter Osborne is a troll. He writes mainly to stir up crap, nothing else. You won't catch him actually trying to teach anything useful. You would be very wise if you didn't try to adapt
anything that he espouses to our sport. Having him as a writer on the paid side of this site says very little for that particular part of this site too imo. He's a poor representative for any officiating group.
