He's got a really angry tone of voice, so much so that my partner is close by to watch my back. I ask him whether the manager is charged with a visit, and my partner tells me it's not a visit, so I say that's fine no visit afterall on the second incident. .

You messed up on a rules interp and you knew it. When this happens to me I certainly give the coach a little more rope, not an endless supply but more than usual.
In this instance I would give a little because of my own mistake not because of the Parks penalties.
