in this case with a red card YES the coach would not be able to coach the next game....

Cecil is much nicer than I am. I will just tell you that you are flat-out wrong. There is absolutely no grounds for the referee penalizing the coach in any way for simply pulling his team off the field, and certainly showing him a red card is out of the question under the FIFA Lotg. Under the Lotg coaches are NEVER shown cards. The cards are reserved for only the players and the named substitutes.

If the coach uses profane language, then that is grounds for dimissing him from the technical area, but still a red card would not be displayed.

So, in closing, let me say it again, the act of pulling his team by itself is not something that is punishable by the referee, that must be dealt with by the league authority or responsible governing body.

isu,
If you ever have a problem with a coach (not FED rules here, remember USSF) there isn't a card. You just go to the bench and politely tell them good-bye.
I always first let them know there's a problem by asking, "Coach, is your assistant ready to take over?" After their response, I will add, "If ______ keeps up.... or "If you continue to_______ then your day is done."
If the coach persists, just tell him his prsene is no longer needed on the sidelines and let him know he has to go."
Only once in my many years have I been loud and vocal with a coach. That coach is also a HS ref ... one I've worked with .... and the worst I have ever seen. The assisgnor sent me to a tournament onece with the specific instruction to shut him up. The league had hand enough of him and the younger referees hadn't known how to handle him. The first time he yelled at me I looked at him and yelled from 15 yards away, "Knock it off,___." He said he wasn't going to, so again I yelled from about 15 so that everyone on the field and on the sidelines could hear, "One more word and I'll toss you out of here and you know I will."
He was quiet the rest of the game.
Card them in HS. Not in USSF?

I was taught and believe in avoiding ultimatums or threats. Better to use statements like "that's enough", "no more, coach", "you must stop that", or "that's nearly dissent" or ... . Also, avoid using "I", which makes it personal rather than violating rules or the game.

p.s. I think "knock it off" and yelling across the field are inflammatory.

You're 100% right... but you'd have to know this guy and his personality. Regular tactics don't work. You have to give ultimatums to get is attention. He's oblivious to "That's enough" and "no more."
