If you wish to vote on the motions you can appoint a proxy who is attending on the day to do so on your behalf – please email richard.irvin[email protected] by 5pm on Friday 15th July for more information.
How to get there
The FSA AGM will take place at AFC Wimbledon’s Cherry Red Records Stadium, on Plough Lane.
The stadium is well served by public transport links, with Earlsfield Station (trains to Waterloo and the South West), Haydons Road (Thameslink and Southern trains to the South Coast, Central London and Hertfordshire) and Tooting Broadway (London Underground Northern Line) all within walking distance.
A number of bus services run along Garratt Lane between Earlsfield and Tooting Broadway, while the 493 bus runs from Wimbledon Station (Tube District Line, Tram, South Western Railway and Thameslink) directly outside Plough Lane Stadium.
Attendees are directed to the hospitality entrance at Gate 1 adjacent to the club shop, which is on Plough Lane.

Zoom etiquette
We’re sure that almost everyone is used to Zoom by now, but a reminder for those attending online that you’ll need to keep your microphones muted throughout. If you wish to ask a question, you can do so using the chat function.
We will be periodically coming to the online audience for questions during each agenda item as best we can, so please keep the chat function for substantive questions that you wish to raise rather than general chat, as this will make contributions easier to find and improve everyone’s experience of the day.
Other information
The stadium will be playing host to two pre-season friendlies on the day, between AFC Wimbledon’s men’s and women’s team and Ipswich Town, so the area around the ground is likely to be busy, particularly on departure for those of you who will be there on the day.
If you have registered and can no longer attend, please email victoria.goodfellow@thefsa.org.uk.
