After the ball is dead, the C might reasonably go to the Trail and say "The clock only ran off 7 seconds. Are you sure about your 10 count?" At that point, the Trail can say, "Yes, the clock started late" or "#$*%, my bad."

Do you think that's unreasonable? (Honest question, not baiting.)
OK. We can agree that *my* comments are valid, right?

Now to your play (which I agree I misread)...I gotta say if Coach A isn't up screaming his azz off that I screwed it up (as I expect he would be 99% of the time) and you come in to plead his case I'm gonna be pissed at you.

So no. MYOB.
