Let me be clear that whoever did this needs to be spoken to pretty sternly by his/her club and not be allowed anywhere near a kids game again (at the very least).I would also love to see clubs pull some of their more vocal parents into line as well,some of the crap i heard go down on the weekend towards a ref by both teams, both coaches and both benches was ridiculous.The ref wasnt doing a bad job it was clear most of those abusing had no idea of the rules.I saw one ref give a pen and then had to explain to everyone that yes 11 and 12's have pens now.When coaches and clubs dont communicate this stuff to parents it just adds to the frustration towards officials.Blame NNSW all they want for not providing proper refs but if your day consists of yelling over the fence at a volunteer ref at an under 11's game then you are a certain kind of cretin.As they get older everyone is feeling a much bigger sense of entitlement in this program and some are in for a very rude shock if they talk to officials like that once they make grade.Originally Posted by Goatscheese
But back to your original point lets hope this person is made an example of as far as behaviour from everyone is concerned.
