I thought Bright should have been introduced on the hour rather than 5 minutes from the end.

Walking down S Africa road I said to my wife should be an easy 3 points with Hull in a relegation spot... then added "which means we know what will happen". And it came to pass!

Both teams missed chances and keepers made good saves. And although Rs had an excellent spell at the end of the first half playing some lovely football, they were too often out-muscled in midfield and our defenders made to look more immobile than usual.

Maybe some over-confidence after they got a goal back thinking it would all be alright and forgot the basics. As often Maclaren's substitutions didn't make sense. We didn't need 2 big centre forwards but did need pace earlier than when BOS eventually came on.

But we need to be realistic. This is still better than I dared hope after first 4 games.
