https://www.irishtimes.com/topics/topics-7.1213540?article=true&tag_person=Damien+Duff" rel="nofollow - Damien Duff  has found dealing with pushy parents one of his biggest challenges since taking up his first managerial position at  https://www.irishtimes.com/topics/topics-7.1213540?article=true&tag_organisation=Shamrock+Rovers" rel="nofollow - Shamrock Rovers .

At his own request, the former Ireland international was assigned the role of managing the club’s first entrants into the new national Under-15 league and the experience so far has been mixed.

He said: “I’ve really loved it and it’s given me something to focus on. There’s lot of work involved from setting up training sessions to dealing with pain-in-the-arse parents.

Talk about stating the bleeding obvious.
 
Saw him in action coaching ROI u15s in a trial match, I was analysing the opposition back 4.
 
Pep will not be shaking in his boots.

Parents are politely asked to shut the f**k up at our club. You even get them at our academy training going mental at little johnny and its under 6's ffs.

Do most clubs not have a parental form to sign and with that comes a behavior protocol, so that clubs can turn around to the over enthusiastic parents and tell them politely to cop on

FAI Code of Ethics for Parents is what we handed out previously.
 
We have crash barriers (kind you see in O'Connell St. on Paddies Day) positioned five yards from the sideline to keep parents back.
 
Some think they are great and use them for leaning on.
 
Others think they are ornamental and totally ignore them and there's only so many times that you can ask an idiot to move. And BTW the mothers are worse than the fathers.
