A couple of Hull City’s rivals at the bottom of the Championship table were in action last night.
Peterborough United hosted Luton Town and were in desperate need of a win as they sat eight points from safety in 24th place.
Posh were 1-0 down against the Hatters with only three remaining remaining until Jonson Clarke-Harris equalised right at the death.
The point doesn’t really help Posh too much as Reading, who sit in 21st, managed to scrape a win against Stoke City.
An own goal by the Potters on the hour mark gifted the Royals all three points and takes them eight points above the drop - four points below Hull.
The Tigers are still 12 points above the relegation zone but will be eager to impress as they take on promotion candidates Middlesbrough this weekend.
Here are today’s transfer rumours...
