I've never really worried about ejecting a coach/asst. coach. I'm usually always been on familiar terms with most of them through the years. Some can be quirky, but we as members know who is who. The vast majority of coaches are always courteous to us. They are simply glad that they know you, want you do, and how you do it.

I had one test me in my first varsity game. Dressed him down for his actions. He was pretty much a pussycat after that.

Got my share of players when they really deserved it. On several occasions, the coach took care of it for me.

Plus they take care of our pay cards.

Really? Around here, you'd be accused of using an atomic bomb to kill a mosquito.

In fact, if a Head Coach screamed that, I might dump him too (although restricting the Head Coach might be another option).
And, per FED rules, if you DO dump an assistant, the HC is automatically restricted for the rest of the game.

That's only if they leave the vicinity of the dugout or coaching box to dispute a judgment call. (3-3-1g6).

I think the infraction is more in line with items 2, 3, or 5 than 6.

I think your first reaction of "That's enough" was good.

I would have ignored the bratlike crossed arms.

Otherwise, in FED, I don't ever restrict an AC - they have no leash. They either stay or head to the bus.
