Yes, I agree with Mr. Kirwan in the sense that if a coach says something derogatory of the people who employ him, obviously he must live with the consequences. However, we are talking about preventing him from actually speaking. He realises that he deals with the victory or the defeat that happens and if he deals with something else or goes outside his remit then he is answerable, of course, to his board or whatever.
