Torquay United manager Martin Ling told BBC Radio Devon:
"Today was a dogged, determined, not-very-pleasing-on-the-eye type of performance.
"There's a few people now that are chipping in when Rennie's (Howe) not scoring.
"We looked a little more potent in the second half, but I wouldn't say we looked scintillating at any stage.
"Everyone that was out there put their work in defensively, so that's why you win games of football."
