Every season the FTDL hold an AGM to vote on anything you think may need changing & this year we saw the introduction of a paper vote, This helped prevent any further arguing by those not happy with which proposals actually got voted in but how did it go?
Here's the reults from the FTDL AGM for 2016 Please note the Felsto did not partake in the AGM & therefor had no member present to vote.
