Former Burnley captain Brass, along with all the players still under contract at BoothamCrescent, is still continuing to defer his wages - a gesture which helped save the club from liquidation.
Torquay, who like Ebbsfleet had also opened up a two-goal first-leg lead on home soil, kept their nerve despite losing 1-0 to York City on the day at BoothamCrescent, only to go through 2-1 on aggregate.
