Nick Barmby is hopeful his players will find the mindset needed to haul themselves out of their current slump following their 2-0 home defeat to lowly Coventry.

Liam Cooper's own goal put Coventry in front after 12 minutes and substitute Cody McDonald wrapped up the win to take his side out of the bottom three and above relegation rivals Bristol City.

The Tigers have now lost their last three npower Championship matches and Barmby is desperate for that run to come to an end as soon as possible.

"I'm proud of the players for their attitude and commitment and the way we went about things in the second half," he said.

"We're in a bit of a rut at the moment, but if we show that sort of attitude we'll get out of it, no doubt about that.

"It is about having the right attitude and wanting to get on the ball. As long as we stick together we're not bothered about what other people say."
