The Ebbsfleet manager, Liam Daish has just been on 5 live. They've only just got back from Barrow after last night's game - because kick off was delayed by a baked bean spillage.
Barrow clinched an important point against Blue Square Bet Premier relegation rivals Ebbsfleet. Kick-off was delayed by 90 minutes as the Ebbsfleet coach was delayed by a baked bean spillage on the M6. Ebbsfleet saw Nathan Elder sent off late on following an incident with Garry Hunter. It capped a miserable evening for the Kent side, who were held up by the motorway incident during their 300-mile trip to Cumbria. The Fleet are now 10 points adrift in the relegation zone with a game in hand on most of the teams above them, while Barrow edged to within a point of safety
Motorists faced severe delays on the M6 after a lorry crashed and shed its load of baked beans onto the carriageway. The lorry hit the central reservation on the southbound carriageway of the motorway between junctions 22 and 2,3 near Newton-le-Willows in Merseyside.The crash happened just before 11:00 BST, blocking two lanes of the motorway in both directions. The motorway was closed for 15 minutes as the vehicle was moved, the Highways Agency said.
One lane remained closed in each direction at 17:00 BST on Wednesday, and further lane closures were expected to take place overnight while repairs to the barrier are carried out.
