How do you know Tony Steele wanted the meeting to be carried on? At FIM meetings, there are jury meetings (3 before the meeting and 1 after). Tony Steele may have put a request in the jury meeting for the meeting to be re-staged for another day. If this was the case, then there would be a vote with all members of the jury (this consists of: referee, jury president, fim delegate, clerk of the course, machine examiner, each countries fmn delegate, home countries fmn delegate e.t.c.).
If there was a vote whether the meeting should be re-run, the decision would go to the majority of the vote. Maybe Tony requested for the meeting to be re-run and refused.
You cant comment about Tony unless you were in the jury meeting
