Is this appreciated, or not (this is in line with "thats not my call"

Sorry, should have been more specific.

Do you as an official appreciate it when a coach somehow indicates to you during a situation where a call is unclear or there is going to be some discussion, that he agrees that the call should go against him.

I do this about once a year. The officials are discussing something nearby and I agree that the call made is wrong and they should reverse it, and it will go against my team. I will try to let the officials know that I agree with the reversal, so that they do not feel they have to keep discussing and/or come up to me and offer some sort of explanation.

Or, do you want us just to butt out of it.

I don't get involved if I think the reversal should go in my favor, only when I think it should go against me.

My goal is to show my players that is more important to be honest and lose than lie and win. If I can help the official make the correct call with calm input, I will, even when it hurts my team.
