Dunno if you've heard, but they brought Ebbsfleet in the Blue Square Premier. I feel sorry for the club really, undermines the manager, Cambridge were 3rd on the to buy list for ages and i was getting worried, but thankfully our board saw sense :D We're riding high in the league too!

Did you read the interview with Liam Daish (the Ebbsfleet team manager) in the week? It turns out one of the people who went online and paid their £35 was a Mrs. J. Daish - his wife - who then proceeded to preach tactics and team selection to him despite not really liking football. Yet with her being a stakeholder, he's suddenly found himself accountable to her.

Now how's that for undermining the manager!
