False multiple fouls are a concept that most coaches don't understand, let alone fans. You may end up giving another foul to the head coach in this type of a situation.

It is good that the two refs got together to discuss their two separate incidents. If possible, see if you can determine which foul could have occurred first. If you can do that, the you can drop the second foul since contact on a dead ball is to be ignored unless it is intentional or flagrant. I realize there are situations where false multiple fouls must be called, but most (this is my opinion) assignors would prefer not to see it called.
