Redknapp added: "It has been amazing how it has gone at Portsmouth in the last eight months. We keep seeing owners coming in but then there's no money. At least they will still be there. They can do that — they have done it before.
He told Sky Sports News: "This is a football issue and an issue where the Premier League owes it to the football community here in Portsmouth to do a little bit more than they have done. All they have done at the present time is run the tax line and they haven't run very fast in helping us. What they have a responsibility to is the fans and the city of Portsmouth.
Football means a lot to the people of this city and it means a lot for the Premier League to actually show some faith and actually maybe pay off some of the small creditors at this club. A spokesman for Prime Minister Gordon Brown also expressed concern at today's developments.
This is a great club and we hope they will be able to return to their former glories. What's new New posts Latest activity. Members Current visitors. Log in Register. Search titles only. Search Advanced search…. New posts. Search forums. Log in. Install the app. Contact us. Close Menu.

As they took 6 points off Pompey, West Ham would drop to third, how sweet would that be, if they missed out in the play-offs? As said, they'll go with one less relegated from each division and with two up from the conference, correct numbers will be restored. The winding up order goes to court in London and, if granted, Portsmouth could become the first Premier League team to go out of business.
Last in the Premier League standings and with its fourth different owner in six months, Portsmouth has run into one financial problem after another this season. The south coast club, which won the FA Cup two seasons ago, has missed paying its players and staff on time on four different occasions this season.
The team was banned from buying players in the January transfer window and, when it sold players, the Premier League passed the money on to clubs which were owed cash.
Now it is the subject of a winding up order by the Revenue and Customs authority and such a ruling could put it out of business.
