If the referee is ignoring you, yelling louder usually won't help. Some officials don't like confrontations with coaches and will do what it takes to avoid them. I referee basketball and football, and well basketball it's tough not to acknowledge a coach because you run by him every minute. In football it's easier because you're not always near his bench. But it all depends on the official.

But if he doesn't want to listen to you, don't push it.
