It's easy to believe you will do certain things in such a situation, but until you've been there, you can't understand what it is like.
Sorry but I can't agree. We've had two fights where multiple players were ejected and did not have a problem identifying them.

I can understand not being able to get kids coming off the bench. Football is a game of free substitutions between downs and most fights occur at the end of the down or between plays.

But to not be able to get the numbers of players throwing haymakers at each other...sorry but I don't see any excuse for that.
