Football: Portsmouth's Plight

There's a good round up on on the BBC website of the consequences that Portsmouth face, assuming they enter administration in the coming days. Unless a very wealthy owner who is willing to take a significant loss is found in the next couple of days (a highly unlikely prospect), the club will be facing certain relegation from the Premier League and after that, the unknown. It will seem like a long summer for Portsmouth's fans, as they wait to see if a viable business can be extracted from the ruins of the club, one which will be able to take part in the Championship.

Also of interest is this piece, linked to by Matt Slater in the comments, which provides more details on the challenges faced after a club goes into administration.
