Hampton gave Rohan Ince a contract. A player who hadn't played in how long, and was well past 30 with no sell on value.
He played bit part in what 7 games? Then now again potentially giving him another contract.

Yet young Finn, a young prospect, was not given a contract at left for free to join Birmingham City, a contract to a young player that could have netted a transfer fee, or at the very least payments for appearances or sell on percentage.

But yeah, criticise Dorking who have gone from Sunday league football to step 1.

Maybe they see his value, a good age, and protecting an asset that could have value if someone comes in for him.
Well personally I wouldn't have given Ince a contract either. But ex full time EFL players end up at non league clubs for a reason, either they are injury prone or can't cut it any more. Plus knocking Dorking, or more specifically their Manager, is just fun. His persona, in all the many hours of social media he does just screams out for it.

Ebbsfleet have been in negotiations for some time to sell the club but the sale has just hit a snag.It appears to be dependent on a property development which has been turned down by the Secretary of Stare so I guess the purchasers have pulled back for the time being at least. The NL are not convinced Ebbsfleet are financially viable without the sale. I suspect the vendor is reluctant to put in any more money with the sale so close but may be forced to do so to avoid Ebbsfleet from collapsing.The fact that Ebbsfleet have built up a debt of £20M rather suggests this has been a property play from the beginning.
