"This could be a huge problem for Pompy come Jan. Would a club be willing to sell a player to them knowing the problems at the club without receiving all the money up front, or if a 2nd club came in with the same or slightly lower bid then which would be the more appealing to the seller??

Can only see loans and freebies coming in Jan and I can't see this being enough."

"mk gooner nice thought and indeed its misery. If you are a real fan you'll understand this too. I thought it might be good if the premier league use some of their cash to buy Arsene and Fergie some glasses!"

"How can a deal be donr on installments then the asset is sold and the Debt not recovered?

people slagging City off for buying Nothing ,.

is that not what Pompey have done (fa cup)

this is a classic example of how the country has gone to the Dogs yet success breeds denial (never never)"

"Small club! fact! so what......2x cup and League titles.zzzzzzz

Thats the pass, that was Portsmouth Football Club FC.

You may have to start all over again! PLAY UP AFC PORTSMOUTH.

"I dont understand when any major financial deal is done the present owners usually are given time to undertake 'due dilligance' this basically ensure the money the new owner wants to put in to the club or has; has not come from any criminal activity i.e. terrorsit activites, money laundering etc etc. while doing this most owners also check out the finances of the new owners! take a look at Doug he only sold the clube to a person he was sure would take the club forward! so WHY the Pompey board didnt do this is beyond me! maybe there was some sort of sweetner that has been handed out???"

"Shall we all get a pertition going now to release pompy from the prem early on compationate grounds it'll save them the humiliation of the rest of this season"

"ibbyDon, that's probably the point of it really. It's not so much a punishment as it is a guarantee that they'll pay owed money before new purchases."

"Which is why the new backers have been at the last 2 games. Football needs to change though, this is not just going to Happen at Pompey. There is simply too much money going out of the game to players and agents.

BTW, Small club ?

2 x Top League titles and 2 x FA Cups.

Play Up Pompey."
