substitute not reporting in

[Adam]

A few years ago I had the table try to pull this on me when a player entered the game on my beckon. Dead ball, and I saw him at the table (he was just getting to the table when I waved him in). Horn blows, and I go to the table to see why.
Table: "He didn't report to me."
Me: "I waved him in."
Table: "You need to wait for the horn."
Me: ???????

If it happened to me now, I'd have a word with the punk instead of looking at him like he was an idiot. He may have misconstrued that as acquiescense.

My opinion, if I wave him in, he's a legal sub and I can't T a kid for doing what I told him to do. That would seem like entrapment.
