Rev,

Addressing fans or removing fans really is best left to home management. In the absence of home management, the home coach shall serve as home manegement.

I had an interesting match last night where the home fans were less than stellar; a bang -bang play at the net where a player blocks a ball then passes it up. Of course, the less intelligent faction in the crowd starts SCREAMING for two hits, which, of course, it wasn't, and this one kid comes off the bleachers (raised bleachers/balcony seating area, so no access to the playing area) and starts yelling in an angry voice, "THAT'S TWO, THAT'S TWO." We have a dead ball, and while the players are retrieving the ball, I just turn toward the kid and make eye contact, giving him an opportunity to say his say with me actually knowing who was yelling.

Needless to say, he wasn't nearly as brave when confronted with the opportunity to say something to my face. He slinked back to his seat, and the situation was diffused without me having to utter a single syllable.
