Faking an injured player

[bannind]

You have to let the sub come in. Legally the last thing I would think you want, is for you as an official to make the determination on the status of an injury - with the litigation happy society you are asking for trouble.

If the other coach has a problem with it - tell him to appeal to the association with the tape and his belief of the status of the situation, but you can't make the determination on whether a player is actually injured. He might be pissed at first, but he/she will understand.

Just my penny to the conversation.
