Portsmouth midfielder Jamie O'Hara described the fans as 'fantastic' as his team booked their place in the FA Cup semi-finals following a 2-0 victory over Birmingham City.
A brace from Frederic Piquionne was enough to send the troubled club through, and O'Hara was pleased to give the fans something to cheer about:
''The fans are fantastic'', he told ITV Sport.
''They've got a bit of magic about them and today was about giving something back to them.''
The firery midfielder went on to talk about the semi-finals and how he wished to avoid Tottenham - the club from which he is on-loan.
''Obviously I hope we don't get Tottenham in the semis because I won't be able to play.
''I'll be watching the draw very closely. I want Spurs to do well - but I want two games at Wembley now.''
