county vote.

[Ribbflagman]

Gentlemen,
             having asked to see the voting forms for the recent vote on Lower XVs into the league pyramid and also for 14 team leagues. I have today received a response from a county official who has said that
"The vote was a secret ballot only for information of the Hon Sec and validated by the office" so apologies from said person "We simply cannot send out the names of the clubs who voted"
What utter corporate claptrap. The people involved should be ashamed of being part of an organisation that has no respect for its members. Yes Guys thats you and I who all work tirelessly for the clubs we love, only to be ruled by a set of liars, who are not prepared to let us have transparency. Where in the county constitution does it state that it has become a secret society.
Our new County chair and his cohort (I know who he is) should hang their heads in shame as it is not how it should be.
I dont know the way forward but for us all to sit back and do nothing is to make us all complicit in such treachery within our county.
How our county Hon Sec continues to take the salary with a free conscience I really do wonder.
Time for some action.??

What Salary??
Only the two admin receive a salary.

I am sure that the county hon sec does not work for nothing.
 I would be happy to be proven wrong. But think not.
Despite that can the current situation be one that member clubs agree with???. If so maybe I am wasting my time and we should all just shrug our shoulders and let the liars away with their version of the truth.
I think that sets a dangerous precedent for a democratic (or should be) organisation such as Yorkshire County Rugby.

Evidence does prove you wrong.

There is also a clue in the official title.

[Ribbflagman]

Fair enough. Point taken, However it still simply cannot justify the disgusting way that the vote was carried out as "Secret" ballot. Therefore unable to be questioned by the members who make up the "Yorkshire Rugby Football Union". Not much unity that I can see!!!!

Does anyone have any idea when we are going to hear how it all works and who is playing where??

Don't always agree with flaggy ( if at all) But the lack of transparency does leave questions! Given our previous voting and pressure put on clubs to get this through.
