Portsmouth's debt keeps growing
PORTSMOUTH’S debts were yesterday revealed at £138 million, almost £20m more than just a couple of months ago.
Administrator Andrew Andronikou announced the huge scale of the financial problems that continue to grip the club at a meeting of creditors at Fratton Park.
Creditors have been told they can only expect about 20p in the pound as payment, although Andronikou hopes he will be able to pay in full anyone who is owed less than £2,500.
