Oxford United's game on Saturday is attracting extra interest after news that opponents Ebbsfleet United have agreed a deal to be taken over by fans' community website MyFootballClub.

The 20,000 MyFootballClub members have each paid £35 to provide a £700,000 takeover pot and they will all own an equal share in the club.

Members will have a vote on transfers as well as player selection and all major decisions.

The deal is expected to be completed in a few weeks and the website will buy a 51 per cent controlling stake, while also having the option to purchase the club outright in the future.
