Newport County boss David Pipe is confident that his side can continue their impressive start to the season.

Saturday's 2-0 win over Portsmouth moved them into fourth spot in League Two, just three points off the top of the table.

"People can take us seriously or not. I don't care. They can think what they want but if they don't it's at their own peril because we know we'll give anyone a game," he told the South Wales Argus.

"I think we've surprised a few people and I hope we continue to do that. We have got some really talented players and we are mentally and physically strong so we're ready for the Christmas period when some people will drop off physically."

Newport were promoted into the Football League last season.
