Unofficial Halesowen Town FC Forum

When a manager is sent off he usually goes to the stands.
What would happen at our level?

If JH was naughty and sent to the terraces, he'd go behind the dugout and still be able to whisper tactics to Trev, surely?

What are the definitive rules on this?

I seem to remember one visiting manager who was sent off at The Grove who then stood just to the side of the dugout.
He was told to move and he then stood on the top of the terrace shouting at his players, like a normal paying fan, from that position.

Anyone else recall that?

Mangotsfield February 2006? It was absolutely brass monkey weather that day

I remember it happening in more than one Town game over the years. And yes the manager invariably just stands behind the dugout.
