I don't think it would be a big deal for him to follow through on his original plan.

Things may have changed enough he doesn't want to. I can't see a way to force it.

I'm looking at it this way. If he refuses top identify which player was to be subbed out, and A6 follows his coach's lead, are you prepared to follow through with a technical foul? I don't mind Ts, and I don't mind the paper work that comes with them, but this would be a tough sell around here.

You might be right, the coach would likely comply, so my guideline is theoretical.

Even if he complied, then took the time to complain to my assigner, I think I'd lose that battle.
