If they don't finish and teams who beat/drew with them get their points docked, that could make a difference in the standings at the end of the season..

Well as it stands, Brighton would lose 3, Cardiff would lose 4 and Middlesbrough would only lose 1 (which could change after tomorrow). West Ham would lose 6, Southampton would lose 1. EDIT: I think.... |

West Ham beat them twice... So they'd loose the points from both games? I think..

Mate at uni is a pompey fan, he reckons that they will be out of cash by the 22nd and will be lucky to make it into April.
Worrying times for the fans!

Excerpt from the latest Trust newsletter
When Portsmouth returned to administration the club wanted to appoint the previous administrator, Andrew Andronikou, who served as Swindon’s administrator in the Mike Diamandis days. Those of us who saw him in action then, including his reluctance to sign off the administration (even though our new board had paid off all the debts run up by the previous owners), had grave suspicions when he was appointed by Portsmouth first time round.
Given what has happened there subsequently it was astounding that the club wanted to invite him back, so I was pleased to receive a telephone call from the MP for Portsmouth North, Penny Mordaunt, asking for background information about Mr Andronikou’s performance at Swindon. She was supporting Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs’ attempt to have a different administrator appointed and I was delighted to read that subsequently they were successful.

They'll finish the season.
If they do enter L1 could an almighty Lutonesque deduction be on the cards?

Can you bet on clubs to go bust at the bookies?

What happens in regards to League 1 next season if Pompey go bust in the summer? Someone like Chesterfield given a reprieve?
The Football League rules don't refer to a club going bust, rather it's membership ceasing (which are slightly different but in effect one and the same thing). What happens depends on the exact timing of the clubs membership of the Football League ceasing; - During the normal playing season (ends with the completion of the 46th games), their playing record is expunged and the number of teams relegated from their division is reduced by one. - Between the end of the normal playing season and the completion of the last playoff game, their playing record is not expunged and the number of teams relegated from their division is reduced by one. - Between the completion of the last playoff game and the start of the next season, their playing record is not expunged and for the next season the relevant division is played with one less team and one less team is relegated at the end of that season. So for anyone to get a reprieve from relegation a club would need to terminate it's Football League membership prior to the completion of the playoffs. If it happens after that they all get relegated and the division will be played with 23 teams. Rule #12: http://www.football-league.co.uk/regulations/20110629/section-3-the-league_2293633_2125717 |

Ta.
Wonder if the club would do a small money back scheme for season tickets if that happened? Being we'd only get 22 home games instead of 23.
