    Maybe to see if it was unanimous or not?

    What a load of rubbish. Maybe you have difficulty working out a vote where 60 are against is unanimous or not but others don't. And what has unanimous got to do with a vote?

    You do know what unanimous means right? 60% is not close.

    As I said they may want to represent all views, and if the vote was unanimously for or against then they could also stand for or against the name change.

    Don't get angry at me, I'm not affiliated with OSC.

    Taking into account that a large proportion voted yes, don't they need to represent them also?

    CTWD vote must have been rigged, I can't believe 100% voted against.

    This is the agenda, those angry at the stance (anti name change) are leaving the OSC so when there is a re-vote the swing will see the vote change the other way

    Bernard Noble did say in the interview that in percentage terms this vote was closer than the vote last year, and that the difference would get smaller as time went by.

    I know what unanimous means, the question is do you as you brought the word in to the discussion when it has nothing to do with the subject in hand?

    Bernard Noble will be worried about getting access to players or whatever it is that people join his little club for

    Surprised it's returned at 59.5%

    I thought a lot more were against it.

    I'm in the OSC (at the moment). How can anybody from the OSC express views from the membership when it was a yes or no ballot which didn't invite any further comment. The 'no' to the name change won.

    They are the least radical fans who just want autographs from Tom Huddlestone etc. , Surprised they didn't fix it so they came out in favour of the name change

    The OSC is a dead until someone reinvents it. Now we understand that they will represent both points of view to the FA, all we now need to understand is which of the two faces of the FA will be presented to and which will make the decision.

    If the vote had been the other way around do you think Bernard Noble would have represented both side ? Or just gone with YES

    Bernard's been told by plenty of people that sitting on the fence is a cowardly option. It seems he's doing this off his own bat with no mandate from members.

    Because the OSC are signed up members of Fence-sitters Inc. There's a few on here as well. Remarkably, one way or another, they will find a way to regard themselves as some sort of winners.

    Or perhaps he's just being canny. Given his position.

    That could be seen as a vote of no confidence in those running the OSC.
