ALEX SMITHIES
The keeper could do little about either Hull goal and made some fine saves. 7
TOMMY SMITH
Toiled at right wing back and a first half booking made life more difficult. 6
JASON DAVIDSON
Settled as the game progressed but couldn’t find his touch in the final third. 6
MARTIN CRANIE
A very solid debut from the experienced and versatile defender. 7
MARK HUDSON
The skipper worked hard and won the majority of his heading duels. 7
JOEL LYNCH
Town’s third centre back also caught the eye with a strong of solid challenges. 7
DEAN WHITEHEAD
Made a good early impression and looked assured, but some passes went astray. 6
JONATHAN HOGG
His inclusion surprised some, but he produced an industrious and committed display. 7
JACOB BUTTERFIELD
Not as influential as he can be, but the midfielder did come the closest to a Town goal. 6
NAHKI WELLS
A willing worker, but he didn’t get much change from a steady Hull rearguard. 6
HARRY BUNN
Like Wells, he gave it a good go, but didn’t really provide the threat Town required. 6
