Time to get rid of the filth, and sub-human detritus that infests the seating behind the other official, intimidating the unfortunate man/woman/whatever. Ban them altogether.

I agree
But you can hardly call a linesman unfortunate.
It really is their own fault.
You think? Most of them seem to await the referee’s decision and then flag to agree. The linesman beside me at Kynoch Park on Saturday was wearing an earpiece in his left lug, so when our bench was shouting,”Hemmin, lino min, sub min”, he failed to hear them, and half a dozen of us had to let him know that The Ginger Kid was waiting to come on. FFS.
I always tell a new Highland League linesman/woman/whatever, “I’ve been here since 1966, and no Keith player has EVER been offside as far as I’ve seen. Just listen to me and you’ll do fine”.
It never works.
