As a scoreboard operator for club championship games and county games I always confirmed at HT the scoreboard was correct.
I always waited on the flag/ref signal to put the score up.
As a coach I always had a mgt member record the score and would always check in on it. I would have also always confirmed with the ref the score at HT and again possibly with a few mins to go if it was tight and I was anything less than 100%.
In this case the game was correct. The venue made a mistake and I think the media copied that.
I would doubt if Kilkenny were all under the impression there was 3 in it. Id guess E Murphy knew. I'd guess some of the mgt knew. It may be that some outfield players didn't but I'd also guess some did - some players are well in tune with all aspects of the game, with some even savvy enough to ask the ref.
But the ref had the score wrong too so a player asking wouldn't have got the right answer
But did he? I wouldn't take too much out of what Galvin says.
Has the ref said he'd the score incorrect?
Well he submitted the incorrect score, it would be a strange thing for Gavin to put to ink if it wasn't true and I would say would be fairly easy to refute.
