Ebbsfleet is the one that sticks out always for me. £2 million loss per season in NLS. Must be more than that in NL and in 5-6 seasons have gone nowhere (about to be relegated right back with us). 

I wonder if Ebbsfleet's rich owner is getting fed up yet with all this money he's spending and still being a yo yo club between the NL and NLS?

Maidenhead lost 2 more home points tonight and are now 22nd with teams above them having 1 or 2 games in hand!

They only managed to scrape a point as well, losing 2-1 when Braintree had a player sent off in the first half.

I was there RR, they didn't scrape a draw, it was deserved for their dominance in the second half, but probably only got that point because Braintree had 10 from HT onwards. Unfortunately for Maidenhead they, similar to us, can't afford to get in the quality to lift the level of the team. The money from the Kilman transfer is ring fenced for a new ground or upgrade to York Road before anyone brings this up! I believe there may be some news on this soon.

Exactly my point Bernie.

Braintree were down to 10 men for more than half the match and M'head could still only draw after pulling it back to lead 3-2.
