He can probably "survive" one incident as described in the OP, but if he continually sides with the coaches in disputes, then word will get around and he'll be short of umpires.
I try to side with nobody during disputes, but it does still cost me umpires, I suppose. It's a tough balancing act, especially in a land (like mine) where umpires don't belong to an association and can accept work from anyone, anywhere.
