Personally, and although I've always done it, I did think it was an odd custom.

It's hardly a heinous enough of a crime to mention on a forum, thats for sure.

Yeah sure, I am not saying it's not polite or respectful to shake hands, I've always done it for that very reason, but I don't think one individual missing/forgetting to do it is a huge deal or makes the club worthy of mockery and derision. If the whole team walked off on purpose and spat it, sure, but one person - big whoop IMO.no_remorse28 wrote:morell wrote:Is it really that big of a deal to forget or not shake hands with an opposition coach?

Yet you see it as unpolite and disrespectful for a side to warm up at a certain end of the ground?
I think it is a big deal - just like as juniors you're taught to shake your opponents hand after the game, not be a sore loser and storm off - coaches are no exception. How hard is it really to walk a few metres over and shake someones hand?
I would be interested to know your thoughts if a side beat a team then the whole side walked off refusing to shake hands or acknowledge the opposition.. stinks of arrogance to me.

Yes I agree, sorry i should have been clearer, i think it's more about the individual not the team.
