I'm not opposed to it. US High School soccer uses this system. It's probably the sort of thing that would have more use at grassroots level, I would think.
At this level? It's a solution to a problem that shouldn't exist. The problem exists because referees don't take action on abuse as it is. Or they do but they're highly selective about it. Muscat or Arnold could set fire to an orphan on the sideline and the refs won't do anything about it. Okon so much as burps and he'll get a warning.
Use the existing tools and FFS be consistent, and start being tougher, and the problem will fix itself.
But by allowing such incredibly extreme amounts of abuse on the field by players, of course the coaches will follow suit.
They also need to do something about the constant yelling at the 4th official. Constant appealing is also dissent and must be addressed.
HAL referees let down football in the entire country through their 'it's all good' approach to constant abuse and dissent
