    isnt it about time we called time on 'little old Portsmouth'. The already owe me 0.80 pence in the pound for unpaid tax. They previous manager and chairman presided over some of the biggest tax dodges (allegedly) in football whilst they supposedly played well above expectations to win the FA Cup. They have helped screw up the salaries in the championship and below by paying inflated salaries to over-paid mercinaries to maintain an average supported club. And all the time they expect the sympathy vote from the rest of football. They should have been placed in administration a long time ago and demoted to the conference. Compare Portsmouth to Luton to see how wrong the situation is?

    100% agree with ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ this.

    i dont feel sorry at all. did any of these true fans question what was going on when they were punching so far above their financial weight at Wembley and in the Premier League whilst screwing the player market for others. i actually think I own Kanu, et al from what I am owed in taxes!!!!

    Not many pick up on the fact of why they are called Portsmouth City FC not as they where Portsmouth FC.

    Lets face it there must be something in English football that attracts crooks. But Portsmouth in particular is a magnet for dodgy dealers.

    How long before Sheffield Wednesday are under scrutiny?

    And how does that compare with the £10m loss City made in their promotion season by signing Jay Jay, Pedersen et al.? People in glass houses...

    The tax payers were not liable for any of the losses at Hull City.

    And surely the fact our creditors are receiving £1 in the £1 makes a difference?

    They're not called Portsmouth City FC, they're called Portsmouth Football Club (2010) Limited t/a Portsmouth FC.
