Peterborough get back to winning ways

GARRY SAYS: Peterborough rose to the occasion against Wolves, after losing their last five League One games. Darren Ferguson has had some harsh words to say about his team's performances recently, and rightly so. We watched them on Sky Sports really underperform against Walsall a few weeks ago when they go absolutely hammered them. Ferguson then went into attack mode on his players and said they could do better but it didn't happen in their next game so he had this one down as a must-win game. To be fair to his players they responded to the pressure and that's a big, big win, having gone five defeats on the trot.

Newport stun high-flying Chesterfield

DON SAYS: People must remember Newport are a team that have come out of the Conference. Newport is a very difficult place to go and pick up three points, as Chesterfield, who are one of the best teams in League Two, discovered to their cost. That fantastic home record (7-1-1) has moved Newport up the league and they're only three points off the top of the table. They've got a home record which is the envy of most and they have a feel-good factor about the place after coming out of the Conference last season. But I'm intrigued to see how it's going to unfold at the top of the table. There's one point between the top six and five between first and 10th. It's remarkable.
