vicky-27 Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 Portsmouth will return to the High Court on 15 March after their case against Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs was adjourned on Tuesday. HMRC challenged the club going into voluntary administration and also questioned the validity of Andronikou's appointment as administrator. It was claimed that Andronikou may have links with owner Balram Chainrai, compromising his independence. Mr Justice Norris ordered a ruling into Andronikou's appointment in two weeks. The new twist in the rocky fortunes of the club came after a challenge by the taxman to the administration and the judge ruled the "shadow over the appointment should be removed". Gregory Mitchell QC, representing HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), asked the court: "Have these administrators been validly appointed? "The question of validity is a fundamental issue and that has to be determined one way or the other as quickly as possible." "Our concern is that there should be a full and independent investigation of the position and the transactions between the club and Mr Chainrai. "We say that if there is no proper evidence of funds having been provided to the administrators to meet the club's financial needs, then there is a real danger the administration will fail to achieve the proper purpose." Simon Barker QC, representing Portsmouth, said Portpin, Chainrai's company, was providing £15m which was more than enough to keep Portsmouth afloat until the end of the season. Mr Barker said: "There is no reason to impugn the conduct of these administrators at all. There is no reason the court should have any doubts about their appointment and independence. "The administrators want the air cleared in a way which allows them to get on with their task." Mr Justice Norris, in a ruling, said: "A shadow has been cast over the existing appointment of the administrators and it is clear that shadow should be removed as quickly and cheaply as possible." He also directed that Portsmouth should provide evidence of "each and every sum" which Portpin lent to the club and also "full particulars" of any money paid to Portpin and Mr Chainrai by the club. Andronikou will also meet the Premier League on Thursday to discuss Pompey's proposed nine-point penalty for entering administration. The deduction would leave the Hampshire club on 10 points - 14 from safety and virtual certainties for relegation to the Championship. On Thursday, Andronikou will attend a meeting of Premier League chairmen to explore whether clubs would consider allowing Portsmouth to sell players and then take them back on loan for the remainder of the season.

Day Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Peter Storrie has stepped down from his role as chief executive at Portsmouth. Storrie, who joined the club in early 2002, will stay on as a consultant for the foreseeable future to aid the club's administrators. The 57-year-old will assist on "the sale of the club, FA Cup semi-final arrangements and other projects," according to a club statement. Portsmouth became the first Premier League club to enter administration in February with debts of more than £60m. Storrie had taken a 40% pay cut only this week after 85 of the club's staff were made redundant as the club's administrator Andrew Andronikou looks to cut costs. But he has decided to leave "in the best interests of the club", read the statement, after speaking with family and friends. Storrie had become a target for abuse from some sections of the Portsmouth supporters in recent months, and he told Soccernet: "It is best that I walk away. "Despite working non-stop to try to keep this club alive for the last 14 months, they need someone to blame, and there is nobody left to blame but me." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/8565383.stm ------------------------------------------------ You don't reckon he's quit because he's one of Gadsby's sidekicks wanting to take over Derby?

Boycie Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Depends on the creditors agreeing the repayment structure I think, if they can't agree, then they may get more points deducted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakeri666 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 how? surely they can't go into further administration so there's nothing to punish with a points deduction... i'd have thought the only thing that's left is winding up, or expulsion from the league for bringing football into disrepute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
