Ulster Colleges

[Onthe40]

maybe a bit of karma, didn't Omagh break the rules around use of subs in a dalton final a few years ago when they won it...ended up in a bit of a saga...never actually heard how it ended up...  not sure they were awarded it?

Was that not a case of the competition being unlimited subs throughout and then for the final Ulster Colleges changed it without informing the teams of the change.

Refs are humans they make mistakes, but Ulster colleges going and changing the score on the twitter seemed a bit sneaky.

well if the teams hadn't been informed of the change, Omagh broke the rules then

Most likely explanation is that whoever was doing it assumed they were wrong and were simply following the incorrect update to the scoreboard, rather than something more nefarious, no?

We had a referee in a club game over the weekend who thought the home team was the away team and the away team was the home team. Told everyone the away team was winning at half time when they were actually losing by a point.

Clans v Harps in the Juniors? Heard about this shambles

True, I am perhaps being cynical

The editing was done 30 minutes after the game had ended and the arguments over the score had been made and a replay announced.

Would be very surprised if a result was overturned due to a referee error.
I don't ever remember that happening in any circumstances at any level.

Not sure if there's been an error here or not. Spoke to someone who was at the game and he said the problem originated from a Maghera point which went on the scoreboard as an Omagh point. The ref noticed it and went to the sideline to get it corrected. Problem was it wasn't updated until the next Omagh point which was then awarded to Maghera which corrected the earlier error. Many in the crowd hadn't picked up on the earlier mistake. Should be a tasty replay.

That's the problem with score boards and who looks after them, there are usually 4 people taking scores, ref, one of his umpires and someone on the team officials.. You get the reporter that is also marking down a score, who'd be someone I'd go to (if I knew him/her to be neutral) and ask if I was unsure

From someone who was at the game myself, there 100% was an error.

I'd no doubt Maghera will concede the game.
