Court registrar Christine Derrett said she feared the company would continue to trade and build up more debts that would not be paid.
"I am very concerned about the financial status of this company," she said. "It seems to me there's a very real risk that this company is undoubtedly trading while it is insolvent.
"I'm obviously conscious that, by making a winding-up order, it would have very severe consequences not only for the company as a business but for the supporters themselves, but that's not a consideration that I strictly take into account."
Gregory Mitchell QC, who represented HMRC, said: "It's quite clear, beyond any doubt at all, that this company is insolvent.
"They have failed to provide any evidence at all as to their solvency. There are many debts and they are unpaid."
not looking good is it.
Spurs will be a bit sick spending 10 mill on Kaboul when they could have waited a couple of weeks and got him for nothing. Didn't sp*rs sell him to pompey in the first place ? They probably took him back to eradicate the debt that was inevitably still owing rather than be a creditor. |

at a much lower level it looks like chester could be out of business soon after being relegated from league 2 last season
the players refused to get on the bus last night for their away game against forest green as they haven't been paid for 3 months and the police won't let them play their next home game against wrexham as they haven't paid policing costs from previous games

Just been suspended from the BSQ Premier for a week, so that's next Weds game off as well. Pretty much the end is the fans mood. Expect an FC United/AFC Wimbledon type team soon, I reckon. |

I found it very frustrating that so many people that I spoke to when Leeds were in trouble were pleased and stated that we 'got what we deserved', I've had a season ticket for most of my life and season tickets don't come cheap, I have to give up that money which could be used on all sorts of other things and lost a lot of respect for a lot of people that said that 'we' deserved it. The fans never asked for us to buy players we didn't need and pay them more money than they asked for, we didn't ask for Ridsdale to 'live the dream', we are still here after he has gone and we will be still here when bates goes.
I hope that Pompey don't go under but find it more than annoying that people who were happy to see Leeds get what they deserved don't think the same rules should apply to Pompey.
We got 15 points deducted for financial irregularities, would anybody disagree that this is whats happening at Pompey?

cant see this happening, because the Prem would also have to allow other clubs to buy. And besides, fire sales only attract fire sale prices! |

Everyone keeps talking about league points being taken off clubs if they fold
Anyone know what will happen if they get kicked out of the FA cup

Whoever they face will get a w/o (walkover) I think. |

the last club thrown out of the cup were bury (I think) and they were replaced by chester who they'd beaten in the last round. that was for fielding an ineligible player though so chester were the wronged party, that wouldn't apply with pompey who were perfectly legal in every round they've played so you'd think it'd have to be a walk for whoever they were due to play
I'd be interested in what would happen if they reached the final though and then went out of business. I can't see that the fa would just call off the final and give the cup to the other team

I know a bye is the right outcome but it will starve Birmingham of some decent gate receipts, although perhaps the guaranteed entry to the next round outweighs this
