So, Bob are you saying
after the penalty has been accepted it's still unacceptable to ask the coach how he wants to put the ball in play? I absolutely agree it's up to the coach to decide what he wants to do next. Do I understand you correctly in that you feel we're "coaching the coach" if we tell him what his options are? In other words if he doesn't know those options even exist is the onus on him to know the rules better or is it our job to let him know what options are
available> to him?
