Ahhh, Ronny, now I understand what you are saying. However, look at 5.10.1 D. It describes where official blows whistle, sees 5 on clock, then sees clock go down to 4. According to the case book, the referee is NOT entitled to put 5 seconds back on the clock, because the timer is allowed 1 second to react. The screwy part is, if the timer lets the clock run further, down to 3..2...1....0 THEN the referee can put 5 back up. So, if your timer is gonna screw up, make sure he screws up royally.
