Francis Howard would have run it better I think

I feel sorry for the supporters but the people who have run it are criminal

If as HMC say that they are insolvent they should be barred

HMC owed £11.5m Pompy say £7.5m thats without the rest of the debts no web site not paid electricity not paid

Sorry football needs to be in the real world

"IF" Pompey go then the results will be null & voided which effects every team in the league meaning all the goals scored / conceded against Portsmouth changes the positioning for all teams.

Its disgusting they were allowed to run up such tax debts!!!



Close it! Just like any other business would be, Why should they be allowed a reprieve?

I feel sorry for the true fans of the club. Some have been lifelong fans that spend their hard earned money watching the club week in / week out.



It's easy to say 'shut them down' but I'm sure other fans wouldn't feel the same if it was their club going under.

Donna msg 11, If they go into administration then they will be deducted 10 points, However if they go out of business altogether then their results for this season will be null and void.

9 points deduction for administration in premier league

10points the other 3 divisions as a starter

Liquidation West Ham & Bolton are the bottom two & Liverpool move to 3rd

Its time that football had a reality check if Liverpool or Man U miss champions league for two years they will be bust

I bet the tax man has his money off us all at source most times

I do feel for the fans though the directors need locking up

As I Liverpool fan I think football needs reining in & if it means your club going down then so be it. Football, like a lot of people I know have been living beyond their means for too long & it is now catching up.



I think the second leg down is starting as I'm seeing bad news where ever I look.

Cash-strapped Blue Square Premier club Chester City were forced to cancel their match at Forest Green because they were unable to raise a team



Local media reported that the team's coach was due to set off for Gloucestershire at 2:30 but left more than two hours late after the coach driver refused to move until the club paid the £675 due for the journey in advance.
