Hull goalkeeper Boaz Myhill is anticipating a "tough test of character" as the Tigers look to bounce back from successive defeats.Phil Brown's side suffered a 3-0 defeat at struggling Preston before being hit for four without reply by Southampton on Saturday and the American stopper expects his team to stand up and be counted.

He told the club's official website: "We're in for a tough test of character over the coming weeks and we have to start doing the simple things again.

"We have characters with experience in this team and it's time for us to show what we're made of."

"We'll be working hard on the training ground during this week because we all want to improve.

"The manager has told us how we've let ourselves and the fans down. It wasn't good enough and like I say, we'll get our heads down and work on things."
