Members of MyFootballClub should finally learn about Ebbsfleet’s financial plans for next season this week.

Chairman Duncan Holt says they will have three options to vote on but was reluctant to give any details in advance of the mail-out, after the club were involved in extended discussions with accountants.

The proposals are certain to include staying full-time or reverting to part-time and what training facilities will be required.

Mr Holt’s planned meeting with manager Liam Daish, due to take place last Wednesday, was cancelled while more figures and budget expectations were discussed but the two talked this week about the way ahead.

Mr Holt said: "I needed time for more number-crunching with accountants, about budgets and figures, and hopefully members will receive details in the post this week. We want stability at the club and to be in a position to know what we can deliver next season."

Meanwhile, Mr Holt is also finalising details of the club’s sponsorship agreement with Eurostar, who are still committed to the club despite relegation.

He said: "There are a couple of things still to tweak but it’s an excellent deal and will probably be one of the best in Blue Square South.
