I totally agree but if Pompy are not allowed to finish the season and not play any more games due to liquidation then some teams will only have played them once and then at the end of the season not everyone will play 38 games so the only fair way is to deduct the points gained from them and everyone has played 36 games instead of 38.Or they could always just be allowed to go on until the end of the season so everyone will get their full 38 games then sort out all the finance issues over the summer. Although I do realise its not as easy as that.
Harry Redknapp must have screwed them over big time, and got out of there like a bat out of hell as soon as he could see the storm that was brewing on the horizon.
United are nearly 3 times more in debt than we are.If it's anyone it's them next.

I'd take Utaka, Piquionne and Belhadj if they were free. Belhadj has some skill, but needs to be tamed.
Not sure if it's a good thing or not, My thoughts go out to all Pompey fans and I hope they survive, It's yet another remonder of how easy it can be to fall from grace and reinforces the threat that a premier league club will go out of business, A very sad day for English football, I cant see how we are to benefit from another clubs demise. YNWA IRWT HERPES & GONORRHOEA GET THE F**k OUT OF OUR CLUB!!!
I'm not condoneing whats happened but this message should be telling the other clubs to run their businesses within the constraints of there income !
I feel gutted for them...................It's O.K. I'm over it. Let's have the points.
Hey guys, I'm getting kind of worried here. I have tickets to the Liverpool Pompey match on March 15th and I'm traveling all the way from New York City. I've never been to Anfield before, or even England and I would be absolutely shattered if this game gets wiped off the slate. Is there a significant chance this game will not be played? What are we talking in terms of odds here?
How have you managed to get tickets, when they haven't even gone on sale yet? First of all I would be worried about whether your tickets are geniune, you'd be even more shattered if the game was on, and you got refused entry. Even if they are genuine, what's to say the game gets postponned due to the weather, that's the risk you'll have to take,Anyway "Pay up Pompey, Pompey pay up" or should I say "Wind up Pompey, Pompey wind up"
even though i F***ing hate everton, it was the same when they finished 4th but we won the european cup the sam year and there was alot of talk about binning them off and having us in the competition for the following season instead. Obviously it all got sorted out and both teams were entered but i wouldn't have been happy if everton have missed out for us, it just wouldn't have been fair.
Sorry lad it's utter bullshit, I would have laughed my arse off if the FA would have had a set of bollocks and fu**ed Everton off to the Uefa Cup back in 2005.Simple fact it's a situation that has arose before in Spain. When Real Madrid won the European Cup, when Macca was in the the squad, they finished fifth but were admitted in to the following seasons competition ahead of Valencia in fourth place. Simply put, Uefa leave it up to the respective FA's who to admit into the competition. So of course the FA went all lily-livered and knew the problems that would arise if they made the actual correct decision, so they sh*t it, begged Uefa to let both of us in!Personally hope Portsmouth find a way to stay in business - how long before this could happen to us?
But...It effects all teams that played Pompey...so we really dont know the effect until it actually happens and any point issues are sorted out. Have Man City,Tottenham or Villa lost to Pompey?Second I really hate to see any team go down like that. Portsmouth are a lot smaller than Liverpool but, If it can happen to them.....Its a little scary.
