... as Tricky Trev has suggested, how will it affect the promotion/relegation in the leagues?

Football league won't say yet but the premier league are insisting that west ham fans must not suffer

I've heard about the 6 point loss by west Ham a few times usually just before someone waffles on about how clubs who live beyond their means should be punished and why should Clubs who pay their bills suffer ( by beIng deducted points)As they took 6 points off Pompey, West Ham would drop to third, how sweet would that be, if they missed out in the play-offs?
.
I know it won't happen (not enough votes in the PL) but this would a perfect time to reduce the number of teams in the PL, i.e three down and only two up. Maybe not this season but for the next.
As said, they'll go with one less relegated from each division and with two up from the conference, correct numbers will be restored. All results would be expunged, so as said West Ham would drop 6 points, but as also pointed out there has to be some ruling to prevent any suffering to West Ham fans. Tricky one for the Football League, they may need to just promote West Ham automatically to alleviate the suffering caused by Portsmouth going bust.
Surely Pompey can't be far off the point where it really would be better to wind up and re-form (AFC Wimbledon style) at the arse end of the pyramid. With the support they'd hang on to and a clean slate they could start again with a big advantage over other clubs at that level and be back in the League in a few years.
Can't go on as they are surely?
B ) is probably the most descriptive symbolism I've ever readAgreed. Two reasons why:-
a) All your monies that you're desperately trying to raise to keep the club afloat are all going into the Bastards who brought you here's pockets. SAve the money for the club you will must surely constitutionally have more influence with.
b) You're the little bit of snow that breaks off at the top of the mountain, be in at the start of the avalanche and be remembered for brining the whole sorry shebang down.

You are wasted on here raul
Well, he's probably wasted!
Portsmouth should go to the wall, if only for the shoddy way they've been run. Creditors from the first time they went into administration are getting 20p for every pound they are owed, and now they'll be getting 20p in the pound on that deal, so for every pound owed from the first time they'll get, at best, 4p.
Four pence for every quid to some of the businesses that are owed money by Portsmouth FC will see some of those businesses go bust too. Any other company that traded like that would deservedly go out of business, so why not a football club? It's all very well thinking of the fans, but their FA Cup glory came at the expense of not paying people the money they were owed. They gambled, and they lost. Tough shit.

I heard their top earner is on 36k a week and has been there 3 yearsThey gambled, and lost.
Then they went into Administration.
They agreed to pay creditors 20p/£
They came out of Admin
They signed Liam Lawrence on 20k/week in the Championship
They gambled, and lost. (again)
Then they went into Administration. (again)
No sympathy for them. If they hadn`t been splurging cash they didn`t have last season, who's to know where they would have finished. They may have been relegated and Scunny stayed up.
Time for a 2 division relegation for Admin. Its the only way...

Pompey are far worse than Wendy. Wendy just spent too much and then were saddled with the millstone. Pompey have gone in to admin, kept a team that they knew they couldn't afford, added some more players they knew they couldn't afford and I really don't know what anyone thought they were doing. I can't believe it takes an administrator to tell them that none of the parachute payments are actually going in to the club's account to help with the latest restructure/overspending exercise.
Some club needs to go to the wall over acting like this. If it is them then so be it.
Kanu would be my guess at the top paid player
If Portsmouth go tits up, I believe all their matches so far will be scratched, so any points that teams have earned against them will be removed.
