Oh When the Fleet...

All Ebbsfleet Aren't We? Banal musings on the Fleet, lower league football, and general drivel.

Grimsby away is going to be like when Homer fought Drederick Tatum.

[Enfield Town FC @ETFCOfficial]

52' | How, HOW?! is that not four-nil Town?! Leonard has one cleared off the line, Adom-Malaki then hits the post, before Bullas' follow-up somehow trickles wide. Crazy stuff.

Ah look at us trying banter

[Ebbsfleet United FC @EUFCofficial]

Ah, but which boys👀

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

Still at a complete loss to see how this regulator will provide value for money.

[Kieran Maguire @KieranMaguire]

As it gets closer and closer to the formal launch of the Independent Football Regulator, more jobs are advertised.

Wouldn’t bother applying though if your name is Chansiri

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

The nerve of this club. It was they who failed to provide an adequate surface to play on, and yet they genuinely think they should be awarded the 3 points!

📰 Club Statement: EFL Board decision

Blackburn Rovers regrettably confirms that the EFL Board has ruled that the Championship fixture against Ipswich Town should be replayed in full at a later date.

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

Maybe Blackburn can ensure they can provide a playable pitch? Only themselves to blame for this I'm afraid.

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

EFL decision to order the abandoned Blackburn Rovers v Ipswich Town game to be replayed in full is very, very harsh on Rovers. Game at Ewood (rightly) stopped because of rain: 11 minutes remaining, Rovers leading 1-0, Town down to 10. Fairest decision would surely have been to replicate situation when game abandoned: play the unplayed 10 minutes plus stoppage, 11 v 10.

If Ipswich win the replayed game, and Rovers just miss out on a play-off place (especially if they miss out to Ipswich), will lawyers be scrambled to recoup potential lost earnings? And as the first game has effectively been erased by the EFL will fans' expenditure on tickets, travel and refuelling be reimbursed? Todd Cantwell's goal has been deleted from the record books but not Jacob Greaves' red card and one-game suspension. Consistency?

The EFL was undeniably in a difficult situation, and sensibly the Championship directors on the board abstained, but it has chosen the least fair option. The fact that the EFL board has “agreed to consult Clubs on the best approach to the development of new guidance to be considered in the event of a match abandonment” itself places a question-mark against this decision. Even the EFL itself is clearly conflicted hence it seeks “new guidance” for future abandonments.

Until this “new guidance” is established, the EFL has set a potentially dangerous precedent. What if, in another game, fans force the abandonment? Or the lights somehow go out? Replay, please? #Rovers #ITFC #EFL

Smithers, I'm beginning to think Josh Wright isn't the brilliant tactician I thought he was

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

@TorquayPes @PESNONMODS @FleetDieHard @TheFleetZone I look forward to watching that from the comfort of 16th place.

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

@TheFleetZone Hope Alex Lankshear signs on. For me after Olagunju the most important on that list to retain.

Stewart I wouldn't be sad if he moved on. Played well, but missed a lot of time through injury.

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

Christ mate, we get it we were shit.

[NL Musings @nlmusings]

I could reel off a lot of statistics showing Ebbsfleet United to be the poorest team in the league.

However, I'll opt for the following:

- #EUFC failed to score in the first 15 minutes of any league match
- #EUFC failed to score within 26 minutes of any home league match

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

Not at all. Beyond one great assist in his final game did very little, and frequently looked out of his depth.

[The Fleet Zone @TheFleetZone]

Jez Davies is no longer at Salford.

Would you take him back at Ebbsfleet in the summer? 🤔

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

@tomhwilliams23 We've not really had the clear out we needed in my view. Still got 17 members of a squad that won 3 times all season.

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

Alex Lankshear released by Blackpool. Would definitely have him here permanently, solid left back or wing back.

[Blackpool FC @BlackpoolFC]

The Club can confirm its retained list following the conclusion of the 2024/25 campaign.

We're statistically the 3rd worst National League side of all time. Well done us.

Yeh we get this a lot

[James Manton Howard @themantonhoward]

Ebbsfleet are the worst team I’ve ever seen live #oafc

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

Not too sound wanky, but a decent club who I'm glad to see stayed up.

[Boston United @bostonunited]

FULL-TIME: Boston United 2-1 Gateshead (Ward 10, Gale 35; Hannant 16).

WE ARE STAYING UP!

[Oh When the Fleet... @OhWhenTheFleet]

Everyone's scored against us, it's not worth an award.

Don't have to watch us again this season and no Truro away next year?
