Others thought the venture would be fifa 09 and it wasnt,some found they were just not expecting how much there is to running a club. The team running out on a Saturday is the culmination of lots of hard work,not the job itself. The members left have already committed to financing Ebbsfleet in full.So "Ebbsfleet kicked to the curb" may be a slight exageration. On Saturday Ebbsfleet travel to Wrexham two games from wembley for a second season running. Year two drop offs were expected to be significant due to members that were “club specific”.

A deal has been agreed in principle to buy Ebbsfleet, once due diligence is completed the membership of Ebbsfleet United and MFC shall vote on whether to sign on the dotted line, essentially.<br/><br/>The reason Ebbsfleet wasn't on the top 15 list was because no-one had heard of it, but we can only buy one of those clubs if they are amicable to our approach, and though I obviously don't know the details, I trust the web team made the best choice out of the clubs actually available.

The reason Ebbsfleet wasn’t on the top 15 list was because no-one had heard of it, but we can only buy one of those clubs if they are amicable to our approach, and though I obviously don’t know the details, I trust the web team made the best choice out of the clubs actually available.

As with everything new and untried, there’s bound to be mistakes and whilst I’m an optimist, I know there will be other things that will need tweaking and fixing as time goes by.

Come on the Fleet!

But lets sit back and see what happens.<br/>ONe thing that is disappointing is myfc never contacted the Ebbsfield Supporters Trust - is it right for fairweather fans to have bypassed the true fans of the club? If this was a big club there would be outrage. This is all very interesting as its certainly a precedent.
