Table Authority and 5th Foul

[SCalScoreKeeper]

*Shame on that table crew for not informing their officials on the floor that a kid has thier 5'th foul.

*Secondly-around here officials will tell us their preferences on horn use with subs.Some like it and others don't.A vast majority do like it.

I once had a game where I both announced the 5th foul overhead and showed five fingers to the calling official, and he still didn't disqualify the player. When there was finally a point for me to tell the crew again about the 5th foul, the official told me I needed to tell them sooner.

Whether it's their preference or not, in this case I suggest big-time use of the horn.
