Re: Coaches and the starting line

I got word of it right before our match started, then chased off the field into the pit and forgot about it till later. But you're right, that would have been my normal procedure. I think also in the back of my mind, with all the crazy penalties, I didn't want to open that can of worms up with the refs. Play dumb and maybe it will go away. In the pace these competitions move at, challenging the refs usually doesn't happen anyway. For instance we coasted across the finish line after the buzzer and were told it didn't count and the rules supported that. But there's nothing specific about not counting that (I don't think). I'm the type to keep my mouth shut and try to respect whatevers said - but not second hand stuff like that.
