So, Pompey have entered administration and look set to be docked 9 points for doing so. At present, they are still looking to complete fixtures:
The immediate future of the South Coast outfit has now been assured but they look certain to be playing in the Championship next season.
Avram Grant's side are already adrift at the foot of the table and their nine-point penalty, which will be confirmed by the Premier League board in the coming days, will see them 17 points from safety.
The club's administrator Andrew Andronikou will hold a press conference at Fratton Park at 3pm to outline plans for the future.

It looks unlikely at the moment, that Portsmouth will cease to exist and are kind of protected under administration. We'll see. It is a worrying time, really, when a Premier League side goes under. Something is seriously wrong there.
