The 52 clubs involved have outlined in the letter an agenda they hope to discuss at the meeting with the FA.
Among the issues they raise are:
Whether the process adopted by the board “complies” with the constitutional rights of the member clubs
The use of “anonymous” surveys instead of a formal voting procedure
The “incentive of financial distributions” to press for an agreement
“Concerns” regarding the independence of decision-making on the board
A need for “transparency and accountability”
The letter asks that the FA is bound by a notice period to agree the meeting and confirm an agenda, which is believed to be between seven and 14 working days.
Anthony Shaw, operations manager at Hashtag United FC, pulled the 52 clubs together and signed the letter on their behalf.
All clubs were listed. Among them were Middlesbrough, Derby County, Halifax, Doncaster Belles and Hull City.
Former Women’s National League chair Carol West has strongly opposed the proposals, writing on social media: “The damage being done here should not be underestimated. I can’t quite believe it’s being allowed to happen.
“The overriding issue with all of this is that the vast majority of clubs do not want PGA (Professional Game Academy) teams in their league but have repeatedly been denied their democratic right to vote to formalise this once and for all.
“Instead, they’ve been told it’s happening regardless which isn’t right.”
