"I was pleased with the way we played in the first half and we had some chances in the second," siad Boothroyd to Sky Blue Player.
"We came here looking for three points but we were resilient today and you have to be when you come to places like Hull City - who were in the Premier League this season.
"It was nice to get a clean sheet. Successful teams are built on solid defences - but that comes from the whole team. We were better at that today."
