Once again we go to a Team fearing the worse and come away with what looks like a fantastic result.

When we play teams like Chesterfield who are trying to win the game and compare it to teams like Portsmouth who are trying not to lose it our more influential Players are able to show what they are capable of.

Half way through and it cant be a coincidence that we have lost to only 3 teams higher then us, two by the odd goal one of which was deep in injury time.

Still cant believe how well we did yesterday compared to Boxing Day we simply did not look the same team.

I don't think Portsmouth went about the game that way Sussex. They were far more positive than us. Passed it nicely and looked to score. By the end, they were hanging on but after being on a bad run that doesn't surprise me. Biggest problem at Portsmouth was our players froze in the moment and didn't do their jobs. We've beaten plenty of teams near the bottom this season (York, Bury, Rovers, Accrington, Wycombe). Got a draw away to Northampton as well.

We've lost a few opposition lower in the league like Torquay, Portsmouth and Cheltenham (at the time) but you could say we've also lost to Oxford and Mansfield (at the time) and Fleetwood.
