It was never going to be a classic encounter against a Neil Warnock side that averaged 37 per cent possession under his brief tenure in charge before last night's game.
In the end, it will be a contest that won't live long in the memory as the two sides battled out a goalless draw in bitterly cold conditions up in Yorkshire.
Although the entertainment value was lacking, Supporters Liason Officer Jerry Tocknell did his best to liven the atmosphere on his 1000th consecutive away game when he was invited to take a dizzy penalty at half-time, only to hit the deck which received one of the loudest roars of the night.
