The behaviour of Tottenham and Brighton's technical staff in Spurs’ lucky 2-1 win on Saturday was disgraceful, a pitiful spectacle of grown men behaving like 20 alleycats fighting over a dead mouse.
If your grass-roots game descends into anarchy on the touchline this week, you'll know where they saw the bar being set so low. And it’s high time long overdue that the Football Association, Premier League and EFL restored the sanctity and sanity of the technical area.
Any head coach, manager, assistant, coaching or medical support staff who strays beyond the clearly-defined box should be sent to the stands.
No arguments, no second chances, off you pop. That means you, Mikel Arteta.
That means you, Roberto De Zerbi.
That means every manager who abuses the privilege of a coaching zone which is now routinely used as a bearpit to berate the fourth official.
