Caused a hell of a lot of ruckus in and around the club and towns, tbh. Ebbsfleet, while not a town, has been the name of the area for many a year. Since the Eurostar terminal in the area is called Ebbsfleet, the club directors saw it as a gilt-edged chance to boost the profile of their club. As Macca said, they get sponsorship from Eurostar, amongst others.
Hardly an MK Dons situation and they are hardly the only non-league club to change their name this summer. Yet you get an element who 'refuse to support them because they have nothing to do with G&N anymore.'
Liam Daish still the boss - hopefully not on his way to Gillingham with his evil long-ball game.

Couple of my mates play for Ebbsfleet. Got off to a bit of poor start. Think most of the fuss has died down completely now, its still the same club and tbf the club needs money from wherever they can get it. Rumour has it that plans for a new stadium will be announced soonish. Shame they'll always struggle to get any kind of a decent fanbase. The club needs to take note of what Dartford FC are doing and try and take on board some of their ideas.

I personally liked the crater field you need to cross to reach the away entrance.

Haha, its an interesting idea. Dartford make more of an effort in the community and local press in comparison to the complete lack of effort on Ebbsfleets part. Attendances are never going to increase even if they were to get promoted to League 2, there's just a complete lack of interest in the team.

Constable scores his second hat trick of the season for Kiddy and they still lose ffs
Kiddy firmly in midtable with either good wins or crap defeats, no grey area for the Harriers atm.
