Chris Wilder: Middlesbrough boss frustrated by mistakes in Hull City loss

Middlesbrough boss Chris Wilder says goalkeeper Joe Lumley's error for Hull City's winner on Saturday was just one of a number of disappointing mistakes made right through the side.

Boro, who are in the clutch of teams fighting for the play-offs, missed the chance to go back into the top six.
