Footballer of the Year
Preparations are underway for our Footballer of the Year and Women's Footballer of the Year awards dinner, which will be held at the Landmark Hotel, London on Thursday May 9.Below is a note from the FWA's Executive Secretary Paul McCarthy outlining how FWA members can vote for their choice and apply for tickets to the dinner, one of the top nights in the sporting calendar:
"Dear Member,
It's that time of the year when planning starts for the FWA Footballer of the Year Dinner. This year's event will be on Thursday, May 9 at The Landmark Hotel, 222 Marylebone Road in London.
Before that, of course, we begin voting for our Footballer of the Year 2019. Voting will open on Monday April 1 and will close at midnight on April 28 with the winner to be announced the following day. All members will receive a unique voting code with which they can register their vote online. Alternatively, you can register your vote by phone, text or WhatsApp on 07831 650977 or by email to paul@maccamedia.co.uk
The Women's Footballer of the Year will again be selected by a chosen panel of experts and also announced on April 29.
In terms of the dinner, I am now taking bookings for full tables of either 10 or 12 or individual tickets. Thanks to the generosity of our title sponsors, William Hill, we have held the prices at £85 for members and £90 for non-members. Please indicate on your ticket application the split you require.
The menu for the dinner is as follows;
Chilled veloute of green asparagus and chervil crème fraiche
Lemon preserved chicken, chick peas, baby spinach, chorizo and baked aubergine, smoked paprika sauce
Passion fruit and mango pavlova, Chantilly cream, coconut sorbet.
Vegetarian and vegan options are available and I would be grateful if you could alert either myself or Kristy Mitten (kristy.mitten@thelandmark.co.uk) at the hotel to any dietary requirements when you book your tables/tickets. Wine and drink order forms will be distributed in due course to all table hosts or individual ticket holders.
To book tickets, please contact me on paul@maccamedia.co.uk as this is the only address where tickets can be booked. I will then forward an invoice with all payment details.
Could all LIFE MEMBERS please let me know if they want to take up your complimentary tickets at the above address.
As ever, tables will sell rapidly so I would advise you let me know your requirements as quickly as possible.
I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on May 9.
Kind regards
Paul McCarthy
Executive Secretary
