'We have to take the positives' - Brittain

Middlesbrough defender Callum Brittain says his team "must take the positives" despite dropping points at home to Wrexham on Saturday.

The 1-1 draw with the Red Dragons saw a three-point gap open up between Boro and leaders Coventry City after their 3-1 victory over Watford.

Brittain provided the assist for Hayden Hackney's equaliser but insisted the team made too many mistakes in the first half.

"I think we need to give ourselves credit for getting back into the game but we can't start games like that," he told BBC Radio Humberside.

"We were letting the opposition come onto us, we were making too many mistakes, but you have to take the positives from it, we're still unbeaten at home.

"We showed character second half, that's the main thing. We've got to make this place a fortress, we have to make it hard for other teams to come here.

"We definitely feed off the crowd, I though they were amazing today."

Boro travel to face Watford on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
