trousers Posted 6 March, 2013 Share Posted 6 March, 2013 (edited) "The News understands the League are conscious that taking points away from an already-relegated club may not be perceived as a punishment. They will be firmly under the microscope over a scenario which represents the first of its kind. And with little sympathy in the game from rival clubs for Pompey’s plight, there remains political pressure. Concern over whether Pompey may start League Two next term on minus-10 also exists in Pompey Supporters’ Trust circles. Ultimately, an eight-man Football League board will decide the outcome once the club comes out of administration. Until then, League chiefs have declined to comment on the Blues’ situation. It means the issue of when the points deduction will be made remains unclear. As a result, the Trust – Pompey’s prospective owners – have called for clarity from the League. Trust spokesman Colin Farmery said: ‘It is a discretionary punishment and, as always, is up to the Football League. ‘We certainly feel that natural justice dictates the points should come off this season – but at the moment there are no answers." So, on Planet Pompey "natural justice" = punishment has no material effect. Same old Pompey, always trying to squirm out of something... It would also appear that the Football League never returned #factlessallen's call yesterday, hence having to concoct a "We understand...." non-story...

ottery st mary Posted 6 March, 2013 Share Posted 6 March, 2013 (edited) What about the other 17 point deduction due? All very unfair. PFA should tell their members to forego their wages due.. All the other clubs should give Pompey a 20 point start to League 2.........IF they ever get there. HMRC to clear all tax owed by Pompey..AND all the creditors, charities etc etc Really should be a level playing field for the darlings of football.......AND the bestest fans in the land.

So does a points penalty but they have still been hit with that. A points penalty when they are already down is obviously not a penalty in any form so there would be a good argument for it to go over to next season, if they go over the cut-off date.

I think the point being made is that there is a cut off date for teams entering admin and it would be interesting to know what this is as it would be a trivial matter for the FA to decide to apply this date to Pompey's current situation without appearing to be overly harsh which they have been keen not to be throughout this process. The latest Pompey points deduction is now ground for all concerned so we can only hope the FA will apply it it line with existing rules in similar situations. Howver I still don't understand how there is a points deduction for failing to agree a CVA but not one for failing to pay one you have agreed but then thats the fickle FA for you!

trousers Posted 6 March, 2013 Share Posted 6 March, 2013 http://m.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2013/mar/05/arsenal-supporters-cynicism-new-owners At Fratton Park, they have had enough would-be saviours with empty promises and emptier pockets to last a lifetime. Here, too, a succession of attempts by owners and would-be owners to palm them off or patronise them have been aggressively resisted to the extent that they stand on the cusp of a historic takeover. Even at the last, they have had to resist an attempt by members of a rival consortium led by Keith Harris to sue blogger Micah Hall, whose dogged pursuit of the chain of dysfunctional owners has been a key factor in getting to this point. Fellow supporters have launched a petition and fighting fund to defend the action. The cases of Portsmouth and Arsenal, at opposite ends of the footballing spectrum, are proof that fans – weary of being taken for fools by new potential owners – are willing to not only look a gift horse in the mouth but to prod it, kick it and subject it to a searching series of online questions before welcoming it over the threshold. On the whole, that can only be a good thing. Hmmm....conveniently airbrushing the previous "glory" years where fans were happier sticking their heads in the sand... Stable doors and horses bolting...

trousers Posted 7 March, 2013 Share Posted 7 March, 2013 (edited) @pn_neil_allen: Adam Reed gone. Patrick Agyemang could be gone. Busy few days at #Pompey. http://t.co/yYnLCuf6l0 Guy Whittingham had lined up Agyemang for another month when his existing deal expires today. Yet Stevenage chairman Phil Wallace has now blocked the move in a wrangle over money. The Blues’ League One rivals are asking for a loan fee of around £10,000 for the striker following his recent impressive displays. That is on top of Pompey’s contribution towards his wages. It’s a figure the Blues cannot contemplate paying due to their on-going critical financial state. Has someone had a bang on the head down there? Not prepared to pay over the odds for a player? Gotta be a first hasn't it? Edited 7 March, 2013 by trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
