On Bury's forum it is apparently a matter of days.
If they do go bust would that mean that all games played are effectively cancelled? In which case, the table would look like this:
1 Doncaster 41 75
2 Bournemth 41 72
3 Brentford 40 72
4 Yeovil 41 68
5 Sheff Utd 39 66
6 Swindon 40 65
8 Walsall 42 65
7 Tranmere 41 60
9 Franchise 40 60
10 Leyton Or 41 58

Not going to happen this late in the season. A way for them to complete their fixtures would be found. |

Dunno it was all very serious on North West news this AM, and with small crowds etc £1m is not loose change to get their hands on. You look at finances and both Portsmouth and Sheff Utd issues as raised in this thread and I just don't see how fan ownership can ever work without major restructuring of the league. |

I know I'd rather be in Bury's position than have Jed "McCoy" McCrory running the show with MacDonut as manager, that's for sure!

Amen to that, they don't know they're born. |

I think Pompey will have their 10 point deduction held over to next season now they've been relegated last night, which after all their complaints early in the season, is a big mistake.
I'm sure Southampon started off with -10 a few years ago after they went into admin the end of the previous season.

They did. Were told if they stayed up in the Championship the League would apply the -10 to relegate them of if they got relegated they would start League 1 on -10. They were well and truely fucked. |

See Pompey will be deducted 10 points this season so starting in League 2 with a clean slate
Transfer budget and other financial restrictions imposed for 5 years

Given what they've been through, that seems fair to me.
I know some clubs have used administration to gain an unfair advantage but this surely isn't one of those cases, at least with regard to this season.

Honestly, this is the best that could happen. Points reduction won't effect them as they're down anyway, and transfer budget/financial restrictions will ensure nothing crazy happens to the club under fan control so they can stabilise themselves. All's well that ends well. |

Not for those that were owed money, who received 2p in the £. Don't know the actual figure but it must be the best part of £100m of debt that Portsmouth have been able to wipe out. Should have been kicked out of the league a long time ago. |

One rule for one and one for another. As stated above, why different for Southampton?

Wouldn't mind putting a tenner on them for the league 2 title next season.
