It is parents too in some cases. No surprise that in one game where a parent referred to me as an f***ing cheat because he couldn't tell the difference between a block tackle I allowed and an out of control sliding one where the player jumped out of the way so no contact but where when the ball...
We had that issue at u9s, however when I reffed my own team, a few shouts of no foul, play on etc and explaining afterwards about the boy who cried wolf seemed to have ended it in one fell swoop. My son gave me huge grief afterwards as did his mates but they got over it

Poor from the club there I feel. But if the manager goes beyond 'i didn't see the incident' then he needs to be spot on and not as wrong as he was
