Why would Pompey bother with these last minute talks the night before the court case if the judge was going to adjourn the case 28 or 42 days? Maybe there is little chance of an adjournment and tomorrow really will be the end.
It has nothing to do with the FA.
The Premier League would give them -9 points.
So many people confuse the FA, Premier League and Football League. All are different organisations!!!
That link above is dated mid December.
Since then...

Going into admin doesn't forfeit the parachute money however...
From the minutes of the meeting between Pompey fan groups and the Premier League.
KM - Asked, should future payments to other clubs not be paid, could the parachute payments be withheld if needed?
RS - Yes, this has been done once before in similar circumstances at Derby County. Mr Scudamore said that withholding the television money owed to PFC was a difficult decision to make as the PL had a balancing act to do in safeguarding the need for creditors to receive the money and still allowing PFC to keep operating. The PL believes it has got this balance about right. The PFC fans delegation agreed that it was the right thing to do and that while painful to see the transfer embargo in place, the majority of fans agreed with it.
Does being in these last minute talks mean that Pompey if it goes to court won't get the extension Notts County did?
I think so or else why are they bothering.
...anyway they had ample time in January to sell more than just Kaboul and Begovic but decided not to, so they could have paid the taxman everything in one lump sum.
The F.A. are sending the England World Cup trio of Webb, Mullarkey and Cann for the derby game.
Should be a good warm up for them on the South Coast before they goto the smaller, less pressurised event in South Africa.
