It will be held at the club's Seasons clubhouse at 11am on Sunday and the club are encouraging any fans with questions to turn out.

Bognor had a great start to life in National League South but have taken only two points from the past five games amid worries over whether Pearce - who was team manager from 1976 to 2007 but has not run the playing side for the past decade - is the right man to be team boss.
