What else can he say?

Indeed, and for clarity I take no delight in the "ordinary" staff bearing the burden of years of mis-management. I would like to think that the high wage earners i.e. the playing staff will be first to be shipped out on loan in order to reduce costs.

Wonder if they will show the same spirit when the finances require a number of them will have to be shown the door.

The only fans I have ever known who are celebrating administration as if they have won the league - an indication of their intellect. Car crashes always look more spectacular in slow motion.

All you've got to look forward to is years of struggle, or if you are unlucky months of struggle before finally dying. Small club.

Thats almost what Fratton Park looks like now, let alone in 5 years time.

Agreed, worse case scenario for them they still go under. Best case, they get an owner and remain a small club flitting around League One at best with no infrastructure behind them i.e. where they were pre-Mandaric. One thing is for sure, our supremacy as the Hampshire's top club will be unchallenged for many many years to come, their brief moment out of our shadow has well and truly passed and it just shows what happens when idiots get ideas above their station.

If Birch is appointed, what is Chanrai's next move - could be very interesting.

Lol - Portpin now blackmailing with £500k if Admin Andy appointed.

Had they known about it. It could also have changed their view on not challenging this administration.

Just when you think nothing more even more hilarious can happen....

You would expect a proper administrator to get out the high wage earners out on loan, or terminate contracts asap.

Now that would be funny.

Transfer embargo on clubs in admin surely?

Can't you phone in sick and re-arrange? Thank God for half term and taking the week off.

I am not sure if the result of these applications are ever made public - would be very interesting to find out if it was granted. Cant find anything at the moment.

Hmm to Justice Norris...too coincidental??

Bad news for the Skates as he knows the case background and could therefore be receptive to either rejecting the administration application entirely or any HMRC challenge to Andronikou's appointment. Technically of course they are different companies from the last time he came into contact with PFC but Justice Norris is unlikely to be so naive as to know that to all intents and purposes they are the same.

And Norris has previous with Andronikou...http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/8544183.stm and http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1254880/Portsmouth-set-lose-Fratton-Park-owner-Balram-Chanrai-reveals-taxman.html That could be really bad news for them - he knows the background.

It appears that this has moved to being heard by Justice Norris, or am I mis-reading?

"Absolute disgrace that the football league are giving other teams an unfair advantage when no one at the club has done anything wrong .How can you force a team to compete in a league with only 12 players" Just found this on a skate board - they just don't get it do they?

They couldn't even do that as they don't own the car park!!
