Brilliant ride in heat 13! Our most incompetent referee managed to bumble his way through most of the meeting without too many howlers until he completely missed the FACT that Todd passed Tero on the run to the line in heat 8. But an even bigger howler transpired in heat 12 when his obvious favorite Tero clipped Lasse's rear wheel on the first turn which straightened him up and he totally wiped out Georgie. Blind Pugh disqualified Georgie! I wonder if his guide dog can't get up the ladder to the Owlerton referees box which would explain all the blatant errors. As for Tero and Dave Peet, disgusting.
