Chairman eyes double scalp

Chairman Paul Duffen says Hull fear no one and he is looking forward to taking points off both Manchester United and Chelsea.

Following a fantastic start to their debut season in the Premier League, which has seen Hull club pick up wins at Newcastle, Arsenal and Tottenham, Duffen says they cannot wait to take on the the big two.

Hull face West Ham and West Brom first but then it is Chelsea at the KC Stadium and Manchester United at Old Trafford and Duffen is already excited.

"Because of the way we have started the season, and in picking up wins at Arsenal and Tottenham, we will be playing Chelsea and Manchester United in a few weeks and we will be approaching both games believing we can win," Duffen told the Mail.

"Most of our fans will now be looking at our next game against West Ham and thinking it is a game we could win.

"At the beginning of the season people may not have been so positive. As long as fans go to games believing we could win, rather than we should win, then all will be fine."
