as a coach and referee for youth soccer, shoving a referee is uncalled for and the player should be suspended from playing, period. i don't think the team should be penalized. it seems more soccer teams are getting screwed due to circumstances ie. dutch fork and others i can't remember, than any other sports.
it seems that no one understands the repurcussions of cards in soccer compared to other sports..and the players and coaches are getting the short end of the stick. it is something that will continue, but it seems in other states you don't hear about teams being banished from playoffs
as for the mullins principal, he may need to go watch his own team play and address his players behaviors on the field.
