We do. Kind of.
Four voted against the motion to rescind the Board's decision.
One club voted for it.
Two clubs did not vote.
I don't know where that leaves us. Working on it.
Hope it's ok with Norm that I've revealed this.

Yes. Pending approval of it all from the SA Community Football Board. But I doubt they would reverse it all at this stage.

The way i understand it delegates vote on behalf of their members. For a club to decide which way to vote you hold a meeting to get the consensus of the members and delegates vote accordingly even if its different to their personal opinion. To change your vote overnight just shows how bad some clubs are run and its just 1 or 2 people making their minds up on the fly.
People can understand if votes go against them and the process is fair, however if its not in the Constitution to change your vote then it appears to be unfair and more people will be annoyed now than after the original decision.
