Portsmouth

If I've learned anything over the last week, it's that timing in this game is vital. There is very little use in me spending an hour analysing the administration minefield, because by the time I've found the time to do it, the situation will have already evolved. Even as I write, we're hearing that in the latest round of brinkmanship the club are staging some sort of mass desk-clearing exercise at the Ricoh. Lord almighty. Last night too was a ludicrous jumble of misinterpreted information, poor sources and sheer conjecture. Even now after the High Court hearing there are myriad unknowns. What are the legalities of the company switching? Which company is actually registered with the Football League? What is the situation with the points? So much whirring around our heads, but let's work with the information we have. As my hero Gene Kranz once said, "Let's work the problem people. Don't make things worse by guessing".
