Could they not just offer £1 per every pound?! Would make life a lot easier
Not really, adhere:
In all cases, 99pence in the pound is paid:
If you £1, you save 1p
If you owe £10, you save 10p
If you owe £100, you save £1.
If you owe £1000, you save £10.
And so on.
And with Pompey reported to owe
£120million depending what you read, that means they
save £1,200,000, while their creditors lose very little of what they're entitled to. So tbh it makes a rather vast difference. (H)
This 99pence in the pound means:
For every £1 Portsmouth owe to a creditor, they have offered to pay 99pence of it, and write off the other 1p as bad debts, ie call it quits.
I think they should accept 99 pence, it is a far valuation of Portsmouth.
No-one is trying to buy the club, this is the figure that Portsmouth are offering to pay their creditors. And please don't tell me that was a joke....
