Hart talks up fighting spirit

Paul Hart has warned Portsmouth's relegation rivals that his side are up for the 'fight' to retain their Premier League status. Interim boss Hart and assistant Brian Kidd are to remain in charge at Fratton Park until the end of the season, following the departure of Tony Adams in February.Hart oversaw victory in his first game in charge, before drawing at Stoke City and then losing 1-0 against second-placed Chelsea.And the former Chesterfield, Nottingham Forest and Barnsley coach has been delighted with the response of his players.He said in The News: "I've had a great response from the players since I arrived. If we continue to do what we've been doing we'll be a very hard team to beat."Against Chelsea, as in previous games, we had a strategy and a game plan, and from the back of a disciplined performance we created chances. "I think we will win more than we lose playing like that. One thing is for certain - any team we play will be in for a fight."
