Exactly this. I was a score keeper this weekend, and the head ref would tell me to hold a score after the match if one of his referees told him over the radio that there was an error. We would then talk and I would make the appropriate changes. It happened a number of times, and went quite smoothly. If you want a score changed, you need to convince the head ref that an error was made, because once you do, he can update the score however he sees fit.
