Lots of praise for League One leaders Portsmouth tonight from fans, journalists and owners - Kevin can tell you why...
Kevin Prior: Pompey are flying particularly away. Solid away win at Coventry tonight.

So it's now 34 successive EFL games without a win for Macclesfield, who conceded a 97th-minute equaliser at Newport.
Leaders Lincoln lost at Tranmere, while Keith Curle's first game as Northampton boss ended in a goalless draw with Bury.

Mike: The point doesn't matter, Bruce has to be replaced now before the season is lost. The new owners have to act now otherwise I have lost all faith them too.
Simon: It's really worrying that we are leaking so many goals. Why did we not sign a defender in the summer and why did we let Elphick go? He is better than Jedinak.
Myles: Whelan??? Really??? We have more proven penalty takers and you choose him? What in the name? #BruceOut
Image source, Rex FeaturesPortsmouth's lead at the top of League One is up to three points after their 1-0 win at Coventry - Ronan Curtis got their goal before half-time.
Sunderland drew with Peterborough, while Doncaster lost at Accrington - who are now into the play-off places!
Bradford are out of the bottom four with their win at Wimbledon, while the game of the night was at Glanford Park, where Scunthorpe beat Charlton 5-3.
Stoke 2-0 Bolton
It's all over and Gary Rowett's side have their third Championship win of the season.
Stoke 2-0 Bolton
They're into four added minutes in the Potteries, where Stoke look set for a much-needed win.
Reading 0-1 QPR
The full-time whistle blows in the first of our two 20:00 BST matches.
QPR had to dig deep at times but Toni Leistner's scrappy goal is enough to give the away side all three points.
Image source, PAFT: Aston Villa 3-3 Preston
Let's just recap on the remarkable events at Villa Park. At the break, Villa comfortably led 2-0.
Then off went James Chester, with a straight red, for a foul in the area and Preston pulled one back from the spot through Daniel Johnson.
North End then bombarded the Villa goal and eventually equalised through Paul Gallagher, before taking the lead through Louis Moult's header with four minutes to go.
Cue thousands of Villa fans to flood out of Villa Park.
Then Yannick Bolasie bundled in an equaliser for 10-men Villa in stoppage time, before the hosts were awarded a 97th-minute penalty.
But Glenn Whelan's spot kick was SAVED. All over. 3-3.

Spare a thought for Macclesfield, who thought they would end their winless start to the season at Newport when they led 3-2.
But Jamille Matt has equalised in the seventh minute of added time.
The wait goes on.
We'll round up the best bits from all three divisions shortly.
Brentford 1-1 Birmingham
It's all over at Griffin Park too. Birmingham City raced into an early lead through Michael Morrison before Josh McEachran equalised with his first goal for the Bees.
The big talking point here though will be Blues manager Garry Monk's sending off following Maikel Kieftenbeld's red card.
Hull 0-1 Leeds
Leeds go back to the top of the Championship with a deserved win.
Image source, PAAston Villa 3-3 Preston
And that's it! A quite simply ridiculous game ends 3-3 and rarely has there ever been more drama in one half of football.
Wigan 0-0 Swansea
The points are shared at the DW Stadium but will it be Wigan or Swansea who feel like this result is two points dropped?
Will Grigg saw his excellent one on one chance saved by Kristoffer Nordfeldt with ten minutes remaining.
Glenn Whelan's pen saved
Chris Maxwell saves to his left! Can you believe this? Glenn Whelan misses the chance to win the game at the death!
Ipswich 0-2 Middlesbrough
Image source, Rex FeaturesThe whistle blows at Portman Road but in truth the game had been over for a long time.
First-half goals from Mo Bešić and Stewart Downing were enough for the visitors who, whisper it quietly, look to be going places.
Aston Villa 3-3 Preston
Oh my. It's a penalty! In the 95th minute!
Daniel Johnson tangles with Birkir Bjarnason at the far post.
Can 10-man Villa now win it, after this remarkable game?
Tom Ince (74 mins)
That should be game over and a welcome three points for Stoke, as Tom Ince finds space in the box and fires low into the corner.
That's a 20:00 BST kick-off so there are still 15 minutes left in the Potteries.
Yannick Bolasie (90+1 mins)
Image source, Rex FeaturesLate drama! Has Yannick Bolasie just saved Steve Bruce's job?
Villa level from the messiest of late, late corners, as the substitute scrambles in at the far post.
Not many Villa fans were left in the ground to see it!
