Pearson still wants more

Hull manager Nigel Pearson stressed his side still have plenty of ground to make up following their disappointing start in the npower Championship. The Tigers have taken seven points from their last three league matches and Pearson is demanding that level of consistency from now until the end of the season. Pearson said: "We've had such a difficult first third of the season that we're playing catch up. "The last three games have been good for us and now it's about looking ahead to maintain the sort of points return that we've had of late. "We've still got a lot of work to do, but we've had a decent week-and-a-half."
