As the final whistle is blown the commentators are baffled saying: "Pal were the better team but that is shocking refereeing." and "There is going to be trouble."
The commentator also comments "Ah the time was up in the middle of an attack on the 13 metre line?!? Ah never never. This has to be investigated."
"What is going on with Carlow refereeing!"
