Replying To LongfordgaaAbú:  "Bye-laws have been on the county site for a good few weeks now (link), so not sure this was a mess caused by officials. Happy to criticise the county board when it's warranted, but this one might be on everyone else for jumping to conclusions and not reading or applying the rules properly.

If there was a phantom point in the Carrickedmond-Mullinalaghta game, it will be easy to verify on Clubber. If the ref's report doesn't match the evidence on Clubber then the county board will be required to take action. The days of a ref's report being final are numbered when the game is broadcast and in public domain for playback.

If Mullinalaghta are awarded the win, the group changes to:

Mullinalaghta
Abbeylara
Clonguish
Dromard
Carrickedmond
Slashers

That means the Quarter finals would be:

A) Killoe-Dromard
B) Mullinalaghta-Granard
C) Colmcille-Clonguish
D) Abbeylara-Rathcline

Semis would be A-D and B-C.

Lets see what clarity comes after the ref's report and any objection is reviewed this week. As someone else said, plenty of time to iron this out by the book before the quarter finals."
Did anyone re-watch the game and count the scores?

Also, if Mullinalaghta do object, and are successful, I am sure Carrickedmond would appeal and hope for at least a rematch?

I watched the match back and Mullinalaghta won by a point. This is not a county board issue but a case of human error which unfortunately has created a mess. I don't think there is a quick fix solution and it could end up with the DRA.

Mull would risk getting knocked out if it goes to a replay.

What happens with Carrick and slashers then? Didn't they draw against each other? The whole thing is some mess.

Connollys were impressive again at the weekend. I see nobody beating them this year. Granard were quite good yesterday also I can see them and colmcille making the semis

Lads this could end up getting very messy.... Mull well in their rights to appeal as it does look like the ref had the wrong score, which now means carrick can appeal as the ref scores says it was a draw.. this could go on for weeks.

very disappointing for this to happen during a very important championship game, surly the linesmen should be keeping the score as well and if it was a question after the game that they all check the scores!!! in the last few years how many times will stuff like this be let happen.

Killoe saga 2020

Killashee not fielding in the senior championship 2022

Slashers vs Dromard Relegation match 2024

And the list goes on!!!!

Can't see how it can be replayed. Both teams now know what is required to advance.

Aidan McGuire score a free towards the end where he clearly asked the ref did he need to go for goal and was obviously told there was time still to be played as he kick it over the bar.

Not if game is game redult vs carrickedmond is awarded to mul means they would win the group I think but if not then it is Abbeylara vs Granard.

Remember last year when the ref threw up the ball at the start of the second half in the Ballinaglera/Allen Gaels match with only Allen Gaels on the field, and as Allen Gaels were about to score into an open goal a spectator jumped in and tried to keep the ball out and in the melee that followed the ref had to abandon the game?

Only in Leitrim.

Yeah, it's just as well it is wasn't Mullinalaghta that were the team to lose out or it wouldn't have ended well.
