I think you'll find there was no actual vote For or Against Franchising. I was at the National Leagues Away Day when the Vote was for the the RFL Board to come back with recommendations for the best way forward for the Leagues.
Next thing we know, Fat Man and Robin had announced that there was a unanimous vote in favour of Franchising!
The NL/Championship Clubs were conned.
