A football club is feeling flush after scooping £100,000 for having the worst toilets in England.

Ebbsfleet United have been crowned 'Best Loosers' and will receive the money to upgrade the loos at their Stonebridge Road stadium.

Fleet were announced as the winners with more than 6,000 votes beating former Premier League sides Sheffield United, Barnsley and Bradford City.

The competition was set up by Plumb Center and was open to all league clubs in the country.

A statement on the Best Loosers website read: "This major investment will be a huge boost to a club that have a proud history; once reaching the 4th round of the FA Cup in the 60s, but at times have struggled for survival."

Chairman Phil Sonsara said the upgrade was desperately needed and described the toilets as 'archaic.'

The club are 16th in the Blue Square Premier League. Their next match is at home to Chester City on Saturday, January 14.
