You have my vote on that!

I've always scratched my head on that.
Can't really blam a coach for filling in a column marked "Substitutes" with a list of his substitutes!!!

At one time during a rec game,I mentioned to coaches at the plate meeting that, it would be much easier for us (me, anyway), if they left that column blank and lited the subs at the bottom of the sheet.
I also emphasised that they had done nothing wrong, it just is easier to track changes with that column open.

As soon as the game was open, my partner chastised me saying
1) they could do what ever they wanted
and
2) It IS preferable to have subslisted in the "Substitute" column (even though the row they were listed on had nothing to do with the order that they eventially came in to play...

I never could understand point, 2), but now I don't talk about it - I just deal with it.
