"Snoro" bank owner Antonov leaves "Portsmouth" club © EuroFootball.com

From the chairman of the board of an English second division club, Russian Vladimir Antonov has resigned.

In Lithuania, discussions about the nationalization of the bank "Snoras", the majority of whose shares belonged to the Russian, have not subsided. At the same time, financial difficulties also struck the main owner of "Portsmouth", "Convers Sports Initiatives". Currently, the company is under the management of a specially appointed administrator.

Due to these actions, "Portsmouth" may lose 10-25 points. Currently, among 24 teams, the Portsmouth club is in 17th place with 20 points.
