Did I miss something? When were we given the allowance to go back and fix one of our mistakes? This isn't the football board is it?

I am a new official and am trying to understand the subtleties of the rules so please be patient.
I would cite 2-10-1. Officials may correct an error if a rule is inadvertantly set aside and results in: d. Erroneously counting or canceling a score. The rule I thought the official set aside was 7-1-2d. The ball is out of bounds when it touches or is touched by: d. The Ceiling, overhead equipment, or supports. Because the situation says the official "allows play to continue" I thought it meant he/she saw the ball contact the wire and inadvertantly set aside 7-1-2d. Perhaps I am reading too much into the question but why would the official allow play to continue? |

If you go back and correct errors like this you might as well report the T to the table that you will have to give to one of the coaches. If we could go back and fix things, we would all be close to perfect!

Thanks M&M Guy. You said exactly what I was thinking when I asked my question.
Tomegun, I interpreted allow as the official saw the ball hit the wire and knew the ball should be dead but allowed play to continue and then was questioned/caught by the coach for not applying a rule properly. I did not read into the play the official allowed play to continue because of a mistake. That is why I asked if I was reading too much into the question. BTW, I am good for a few mistakes per game myself. |

What ever, I stand by the fact the the correct rule was stated. You have not provided anything to support these do not apply. As Bobs post is I would stand by this interp. Correct or not(I don't care which) I feel It is supportable by the quoted rules citation.
I know you wont agree, but then if anyone disagrees with you, you take issue.

Juulie, I certainly understand what you're saying, and it opens a messy can o' worms. But, in a real-world situation, I'm going to have more problems telling one coach we're still going to count the score even though everyone saw the ball hit the support, rather than telling the first coach we're going to cancel the score because my partner mis-applied the rule.
