Overheard at a supply league game this evening. Physio comes on to treat injured player and proceeds to give the ref a right earful, definitely dissent, clearly including quite a few choice words which were clearly offinabus and I was quite surprised at the torrent of abuse that was flowing at this point. Referee stood and didn't even acknowledge, played it pretty cool and the physio eventually got bored and nothing further came from it.
I'm aware that the physio is the only member of the technical area who can't be sent to the stands due to their importance, though am I right in thinking there we could threaten/follow up with a misconduct report in such a situation?
