Time to rotate

How do you let a referee know that he needs to improve or retire. I've worked several games with a fella who has in excess of 30 years of NFHS experience. Great ref...great judgement...decent mechanics....decent shape. I respect the hell out of him and I've learned a lot from him. He just doesn't understand three-man mechanics. We've gotten in many adverse situations where all three officials were out of position due directly to his inability to remember to rotate. I've tried good natured humor and some light yet serious discussion. I will not go to our assignor...I consider taking that kind of step to be.....disloyal...underhanded.

Input is appreciated.

Have you tried using a magnetic pre-game board, and then tried whipping it out at 1/2-time ?
