PORTSMOUTH FC ARE again on the brink as they’ve entered administration today.
The Championship club will now be deducted 10 points, putting them out of the drop zone on goal difference alone.
The club’s application to go into administration was approved by a High Court judge earlier and an administrator will now be appointed.
Pompey have asked for the same administrator as last time to be assigned to them, according to the BBC. A hearing was told this week that Pompey have debts of around £4million.
