Will Portsmouth go into liquidation before we play them?

Postby OyJimmy »

If Portsmouth lose their case against HMRC then they won't be able to exit administration through a CVA. Which means they will have to try and find a buyer for Portsmouth who is willing to take on huge debts and they will then get a further points deduction. In addition I don't think they will even be allowed to sign anyone.

So I kind of wonder if the Administrator will decide to cut the creditors losses and wind the club up. What do you think?

That would suck if we had to sit the first game out.

Don't quote me on this but i think i saw somewhere that Portsmouth were given special dispensation to sign 3 players (all on a free transfer i believe, 1 must be a GK) so i would imagine they may JUST be able to manage the game against us.

Id be gutted if it didn't get played, but personally i think they'll just about manage.

Unless they sign a goalkeeper between now and our game, they will either have to field one of their players in goal or one of their academy goalkeepers!

I can see us wiping the floor with them in a week's time...

I had a meeting at Fratton Park last Tuesday and they seemed certain that they'll be fine.

The fact that you have re-arranged the quote so as it was said by me and not skyblueweeman, is quite insulting indeed!
