Portsmouth F.C. (1898-2010) ?

Number_25 · February 9, 2010

As the Pompey players run out tonight against Sunderland at Fratton Park it could be the end of a long tenure of the Sea-side club.

Tomorrow they face a winding up order from HM Revenues and Customs.

No sympathy.

Hang on - if that happens I'm assuming all games involving Portsmouth this season would be void? - meaning we'd drop points?

Typically, Liverpool would come out of it well, gaining points on their Champions League hopeful rivals.

Don't dislike Pompey bad enough to wish it hapening to them. Can imagine how the fans are feeling. Been far to close to that point with my hometown club, last season.

It'll be a point deduction imo

don't think customs and exise are interested in points deductions hayee, they are looking at a winding up order, defunct, cease to exist.
