Fleet captain backs longer deals
Myfootballclub
Website Myfootballclub own 75% of Ebbsfleet United
Ebbsfleet captain Paul McCarthy says investment by website Myfootballclub will help with stability at the club.

Some players could be offered extended contracts following the completion of the site's takeover earlier this week.

The club had a policy of giving players 10-month deals but keeper Lance Cronin has signed a long-term contract.

On the 10-month contracts, McCarthy told BBC Radio Kent: "It's difficult, especially for the younger players. You can't plan anything."

He added: "It doesn't give you much time to go out and find a job if the money stops coming in."
