Law 11 (and perhaps 12)

Purely for my education (I was not involved in the event) 

>From a recent (completed) Western Australian State Championship.

A pair was bidding towards a slam in spades. There was no opposition
bidding.
During the auction, one of the declaring side bid 3C, alerted by his partner
and described on request as first or second round control in clubs.
The auction ended in 6S.
The opening lead was made face down then the 3C bidder corrected his
partners explanation to shortage (splinter) in clubs.
The opening lead of a spade was faced and 12 tricks duly rolled in. 
The Director had not been called at this stage.
The contract however went off on a club lead...
And so the Director was called.
Would you adjust?

If after consideration of Law 11 you would adjust,
Would you consider a failure to call the director a serious error.

In the event that this went to appeal, how would your committee rule

Best wishes
