Hey, cheer up Pompey! Remember the good times?
“Noooooooooooo!”
Yes, it’s happened. Portsmouth have gone into administration, and with nine points docked from their handful of beans at the bottom of the league, basically they’re toast.
The real kick in the knackers will come at the weekend, when they players are set to board a budget airline to take them to their Burnley encounter.
These are sad times indeed, not least for that bell-ringing loony who has a big decision to make – years of extensive laser removal surgery? Or an even bigger bell? Championship teams, get ready for the crazy.
Still, let’s not dwell on the bitter pill of financial ruin. Like people at funerals ignoring the withered corpse rotting next to them in an open coffin and choosing to talk of the deceased’s wonderful athleticism instead, below is a reminder of the time when Portsmouth won the FA Cup and everything looked rosy.

Thanks for the memories and all the cash guys!
But hey, we are looking forward to starting in the Championship on -20 points! Let’s be honest it’s where we belong.

Can’t we get them a tax payer bail out? I like Portsmouth a lot more than Lloyds.
