Pukka Pies may be sending some well-fed heavies down to the south coast, after it emerged that Portsmouth FC relegated and in administration owes the pie maker the princely sum of £40.

League rules mean football creditors get first dibs, so with Pompey owing upwards of £119m in total, Pukka are way back in the queue. The stricken club also owes Carlsberg £1,039.33, which is probably more than the first-team squad now up for sale in its entirety is worth, judging by their points tally.
