Preston manager Ryan Lowe revealed his side need to start faster after a 0-0 draw at Hull.
North End saw their frustrating winless run stretch to four games, while Hull made it six home games on the spin without defeat.
Lowe admitted: "I thought a point was fair. We nearly nicked it, but you can't start games like we did in the first half.
"We had opportunities to win it but it's a good point in the grand scheme of things, away from home, to build on the point in midweek (against Luton) with 10 men.
"Second half was more like a Championship game and it was two teams who were trying to get three points.
"First half was nowhere near the levels from both teams and the second half was much better.
"We could have given ourselves a few more opportunities to score in the first half. We gave ourselves a better chance to get the points in the second half.
"We will have a good week and look forward to the game against Wigan at Deepdale next weekend. It's a bit of a local derby and the fans will be behind us. We're looking forward to that."
