Ebbsfleet have suffered a further blow after being locked out of their training ground at AEI Sports Club.
The club trained at Stonebridge Road this week and vice-chirman Roly Edwards admitted: "We are looking around for alternatives.
"We have approached Charlton to see if there is the possibility of training there for a day or two. We are also talking to Fleet Leisure about training there.
"It will save us money in the short-term as we will not be paying for what we’re not using, but we need somewhere to train. We can’t keep using the pitch. We might still go back to AEI when we can but we don’t know how long it will be."
Gravesham council denied the Fleet’s claims that they had closed AEI under health and safety grounds.
