TommyZoom · Mar 28, 2013

Well hopefully that will be the end of it.

Grendel · Mar 28, 2013

So much for all the conspiracy theories.

skyblueman · Mar 28, 2013

Was always going to happen at least we know now and can suck it up and move on

Diehard Si · Mar 28, 2013

I'd take that and run for the hills compared to what they could have done.

SkyBlueMania · Mar 28, 2013

Is this good or bad in the long run? Is that an a question that even has an answer?

Sorry for the utter lack of knowledge on the topic but I'm currently spending every waking hour smashing out a dirty great dissertation which I, as usual, left to the very last minute and haven't a clue what has happened in the last few weeks!

Chins up lads we are only 5 wins off the playoffs. WE CAN DO THIS!!!!

Wm65 · Mar 28, 2013

That's this season sorted but there could be another deduction next season depending on the situation at the club regarding administration - it's up to the administrator to sort it a situation whereby everyone is happy now.

1nilandwe... · Mar 28, 2013

So is automatic promotion still achievable?

ajsccfc · Mar 28, 2013

Thing is, is that the full deduction or is there still the scaremongers favourite, that they could bring the hammer down further over all this subsidiary bullshit?

Mucca Mad Boys · Mar 28, 2013

So we actually in administration, now then PH4, where are you?

Knowing CCFC, for all the excitement amongst a section of the support, it'll only get worse because no one will come in to save us.

Colin1883 · Mar 28, 2013

If we appeal and lose can they impose a bigger penalty?

hutch1972 · Mar 28, 2013

Considering the time it took and ending up with only -10, it shows how close we came to either getting away with it or being totally hammered.
On the plus side with no pressure and nothing to play for maybe we can put a spanner into the works of a few teams .

Very unlikely. Ultimately it's smoke and mirrors. The club is in administration and the administrators run the club. Sisu have effectively gone.

rupert_bear · Mar 28, 2013

Under the circumstances that's good news and the statement "in accordance with our rules and regulations" is important, it may well be that this fiasco with the Golden Share and swopping it from here to there isn't covered by any rules so the FL hopefully can't act on it, lets hope so.

jon92 · Mar 28, 2013

Could have been worse

Stafford_SkBlue · Mar 28, 2013

Has sisu accepted the club is in admin.
This morning statement from ccfc clearly states (holdings) which is not.
I think we far from out of it

Baginton · Mar 28, 2013

Do you expect them to just curl up and die or fight to the death ? the latter for me.

You'd think with that being the case, if PH4 is serious about his supposed intentions, it's only a matter of time before he comes in. The club's answers to the Trust's questions effectively stating that SISU will not fund the club beyond this season show their number to be up.

ccfcway · Mar 28, 2013

Giving me league one on tour t-shirt a quick iron, the good news is, unlike the playing kit, the league one on your tshirt might be current for a fair few years yet.

Wonder how my 2 start of the season bets are getting on...

Cody McDonald to be top scorer
Portsmouth to win the league

Not over yet I fear!

torchomatic · Mar 28, 2013

Ah well. Worse things happen at sea.

MatthewWallis · Mar 28, 2013

So is this the end of SISU then? Or will it drag on and on, I'm so confused by all this, can somebody buy the golden share and control the club but not have the players??

ccfcway · Mar 28, 2013

SISU are still here. One of their 200 companies are in administration, the others are not and at least one of them has fingers in the CCFC pie

dongonzalos · Mar 28, 2013

Right hopefully the yank can now crack on with business

Mr T - Sukka! · Mar 28, 2013

The league 1 table now has a realistic look to it for us.

oldskyblue58 · Mar 28, 2013

I would guess the FL will consider the report from the administrator before deciding next actions. That could mean no penalties or more penalties depending on what is found.

10 points is the least we all expected

warwickcccfc · Mar 28, 2013

Don't you get 10 points when you enter administration and 10 points when you exit, like Pompey.

Or are their circumstances different to ours thus triggering this double whammy?

procdoc · Mar 28, 2013

so what is the next stage in this process? Are other parties now able to make a move towards owning the club or do SISU still have a say in that?

SISU can decide to reject any proposed CVA coming from a prospective buyer-if that happens and the club were to exit administration it would leave us facing an extra points deduction.

Have pompey actually had their diduction yet?
