Fair enough, and I'd be more inclined to go along if a warning was required. Virtually every assigner I've had would respond very quickly to the "he didn't give me a warning" defense: "He's not required to."
And if the coach is inclined to lie about it, he's just as inclined to swear at you quietly and then deny it anyway.
