I'm sure it appeared (to some biased viewers) that my whistle was prompted by the A coach's plea. When in fact, he was just anticipating B being too aggressive and fouling and I was, of course, reacting to the players' actions.
Before or after reporting the first foul I would have addressed Coach A, probably with a subdued, subtle message. If happened again, it would be addressed with a prominent "That's enough Coach!". Don't think there would be a 3rd time.
