That said, I voted not *for* TCT but *against* a foolish motion attempting to involve the LAA in a personal squabble. And, if you read the actual motion (doh!), it's "for review of the award..." so if they have any sense remaining, the LAA will "review" it and then leave well alone.
Either your command of english is extremely poor, failing to understand what the word AND denotes OR you failed to read the full motion. The motion was 'for review of the award
AND RESCIND IT'. By simply 'reviewing the award' and leaving well alone, as you propose, the LAA are actually failing to comply with a debated and successfully passed motion......
