I think it is because they have have not won or drawn as many games as the team above them.

4th division Pompey has a nice ring about it, not nearly as nice as Blue Sq Premier Pompey mind.

Agreed. But will they still have 'the best fans in the world'?

Guy Whittingham must be on course for becoming the worst caretaker manager in history!
They need a miracle worker in pronto if they are going to stand any chance of staying up.
Which, of course, I hope they don't

I'd love it if the football league went back to the old structure of Division 1-4 just to see Pompey in Div 4. Although the way things are going it will probably become:
Premier League
Premier League 2
Championship
Championship 2
But the funny thing is that even if they found that miracle worker they're not allowed to bring them while still in administration !!!!!!
I'm not sure even Guardiola or Mourinho could sort that lot out.

But it's not like they're playing the youth team. Paul Benson & Izale McLeod have scored plenty of goals at that level and the rest of their squad has enough experience to be doing much better than they are.
I actually read that as "They need a miracle worker in panto", which is what they are fast becoming
The last time Pompey averaged 25/6 thousand was 1958. oh hark at me going on about attendances again, sorry ..teehee.
BTW this is a great site for looking back at gates and who has come from where or gone too...

Indeed. They've still got good players, on wages that most of league One can't afford.
They still got the lad Scott Allen who looked very good at the Amex last year. He should be running games in L1.

Rev, your sentiments are noble, as always, but this club is taking the piss. 3 times now and not ONE lesson learned.
They should start again as AFC Pompey or something and work their way back, indeed I know a couple of Pompey fans who want just that to happen.

I lived in Portsmouth for 10 years when we were at our lowest ebb. I would estimate I got sympathy from around 20% of people I told I was a Brighton fan - the rest thought us going out of the league and losing our ground was a bit of a laugh.
So, you should be able to understand us having a chuckle now the boot's on the other foot.
It wasn't by over paying players and shafting local companies though was it ?Looks like we are right bunch of

Care to detail what creditors we didn't pay or when we were in administration ?

this is why i am wishing they go down - they should be playing their youth team FFS if they cant afford the better players.
i would say i feel sorry for their fans, but they're disgusting.
