    They can fuck right off if they've got any ideas about Steve King at Welling!

    Can't afford his budget....

    Good, they'd be a major rival for our (dwindling) fan base if they ever climbed the leagues.

    He's last seen hanging around The Valley, wearing Arab robes, while sporting an Australian hat at the same time !

    Signed a 5 year contract in the summer too. The football has been poor all season, but I have a really bad feeling about this whole situation

    I NEVER felt that, even when Ebsfleet were at their most ambitious. Clubs have a natural level, you see small teams rise from non league and have some success, but attendances rarely follow, and the teams then tend to slide back, e.g. Crawley, Yeovil, Burton, Wycombe, Fleetwood, Dagenham, Barnet

    The original Wimbledon never got good attendances, even in the top flight once you took out the away fans and "PL watching casuals"

    Saw them 3-0 at Barnet and they were superb.

    Yeah I heard that. I've only been at the home games & can't really remember them playing well. I don't think that's the reason he's left though

    Sure there is a lot of internal crap going on, probably due to player sales... He probably had no option. Would be usual for the fleet that he joined one of the other national league clubs and bought those players.

    Utterly gutted, Macca up there with CP in my eyes. Was great to work with, has that same steely determination. He will go on to good things.

    Football is a merry go round as we all know, staff come and go. It's always changing.

    I heard Mcmahon on Radio Kent on the way home from the Doncaster game. For somebody normally relatively open, or giving a convincing impression of being open, in interviews he came across as untypically cagey.

    Therefore this news does not come as a complete surprise to me.

    He came across as a nasty piece of work when we played Dagenham & Redbridge in the FA Cup back in 2001

    What's the back story here?

    What's gone wrong and who is Gary Hill?

    Pretty much bankrupted every club he's ever been at & is an absolute arsehole of a human being. Great appointment!

    What is happening at the Fleet? Just seen @Airman Brown 's tweet.

    Did Varney know something and got out before it went bad?

    A lot of clubs struggle to pay wages on time but not paying the insurance and to a lesser degree, the pension payments isn't on.

    If true, I would imagine the FA would have something to say about it.

    Remarkable how well they're doing in the league in the circumstances, they're only 3 points off the play offs.

    Not paying the wages on time is 1 thing, but to not pay the players medical insurance is awful. As for not paying the money into the players pension schemes, I'm pretty sure that's illegal. Amazed the players have kept quiet & stayed professional for this long.

    Not a good situation at all
