Obviously, there is alot wrong in this situation. I don't think any of it you can control.
Partner and UIC through you under the bus no doubt. Where was your partner after the eject? How the hell did this manager get to follow you all the way back to A?
Who is the UIC to allow any participant that has been ejected around the field. The game is yours and your partner's, not his.
Its sad you had to wait around to get paid until after the game (least of concerns in this situation), but I too work in tournaments where UIC and TD's don't understand payment should be made before the game.
Obviously UIC just wants to be a coach pleaser for whatever reason.
The one thing I don't think that is out of line is for the UIC after the game to try to give you some advice. Of course, it was awful advice, advice that I would just smile, say "thanks", and drive off. Unfortunatley, the advice came after he completely threw you under.
Sorry for your troubles.
