Bloody hell - we're talking about a club possibly folding. Got to feel sorry for all concerned no matter which club it is.
There but for the grace of God . . . .

Feel for the supporters but I suppose the FL had to do something like this to discourage people in the future running a club into the ground.

I agree, although I don't think it does act as such a discouragement. Those responsible don't pay the price. |

Personally I cannot believe that Portsmouth are still operating.
It's unfortunate for their supporters -10 points still means the fans have a team to support... For now.

Without serious investment from new owners I can see Portsmouth doing a Plymough and falling into the bottom division this season, as you say its a shame for the fans but at least they "currently" still have a team to support. I know a fair few of their fans and they are in the main good lads and optimistic about the future of the club....even if it means a new club set up from the ashes. |

Rock bottom may not be that far away,because they currently only have 9 players and further departures aren't far away. Today,Mullins has joined Birmingham and Mokoena has come to an agreement with the club to return to South Africa.
They do have some very loyal fans and have sold 5,500 season tickets.The Pompey fans that i know,seem to fall into 2 categories.Firstly,those who are convinced they won't die and secondly,those who think that the only way to get rid of the leeches,would be to start at the bottom again,with the club having been liquidated.
However,that might be a very optimistic view that they could just reform and start again.

Surely if you're in the shit, you don't spend money you haven't got on a pre-season trip to Spain, especially if you're not taking any senior pro's, and it will be made up of triallist and youths http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18855396 |

Maybe the trip may have been paid for in advance of the latest disaster plus its possible Pompey are contracted to play there and cancelling would cost more than going. Possible but unlikely granted. |
