Guys, if you go to the ASA rulebook - Rule 4.6 A-B, it says if a substitute comes into the game without reporting, it is not an illegal substitution until a pitch (legal or illegal) is made. Looking at that rule, you probably should have let the coach change the substitution and consider it more of a book-keeping error. After all, it is only ink and they were playing for blood, being a qualifier and all.
