Pompey fans would like to settle out of court

Portsmouth Supporters’ Trust (PST) would like to settle their dispute with Balram Chainrai’s Portpin group over the control of Fratton Park out of court.   The PST need to secure control of the ground to complete their takeover of the club.

However, with the court hearing due next week, there has been no contact between the two teams of lawyers and this does not bode well in terms of an out-of-court settlement.

The PST has budgeted for the court case, but a two day hearing in the High Court is necessarily going to be expensive.
