Happy Horton

Hull assistant manager Brian Horton says he's happy with a point against Portsmouth. "We felt we could have won it because we had some clear-cut chances, although they did as well," said Horton. Hull came from behind twice to grab a point in the final 5 minutes at Fratton park on Saturday.

"It was quite an open game but it came back again and to come back twice from being down was excellent. They never know when they're beaten.

"They were well on top and deserved to go in front. Then we changed our shape, although we've been causing teams problems with it, and I think we finished the first half with the better team.

"We made a few changes along the way and chased the game but overall it was a good point in the end."

"Michael Turner has got a few headers, it's what we're good at," added Horton. "It was a great ball in and then we scored.

"The stats say that we've had quite a lot of shots for the away team, so we're not coming to defend by any means.

"We are playing some open games, and what a good game to watch again today. It's good but we've got to be tighter than that in the Premier League."
