Portsmouth defender Hermann Hreidarsson has hailed the club's progression to the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
Despite Pompey's well-documented off-field problems the players secured a much-needed 2-0 success over Birmingham in the quarter-finals on Saturday.
The financial reward that comes with a cup run has taken on added significance for the south coast outfit, who are currently in administration with debt estimated in the region of £70million.
Although Hreidarsson helped Pompey claim FA Cup glory in 2008, the Icelandic defender believes their current run this season eclipses that tremendous feat.
Achievement
"Without a doubt it's a greater achievement than two years ago," said Hreidarsson.
"Even though we beat Manchester United away that season, with the changes of personnel at the club and everything else going on, it's a great achievement.
"It's been frustrating because we didn't know who the owners were or what was going on.
"There have been negative vibes and doom and gloom throughout the season. But, when you go over the white line, you concentrate on playing football."
