On facing Hull: “I’ve got to be honest, I think we’ve been a touch unfortunate with certain teams, when Reading came here, I think they didn’t start very well and there was a kind of realisation for them that, hang on, we could get sucked in here if we don’t get a result, and they’ve really went for it against us and we were on the back of two massive away performances and got a bit unlucky.
“QPR, they had probably one of their worst performances they’ve had against Sheffield Wednesday on the weekend and then they had a retaliation against us, so we have no idea how Hull prepare, but that won’t come into it anyway, it’s all about us, we’ve tried to concentrate since I’ve come into the club, not just now, but since 2016, on us being the best version of ourselves and that's imposing ourselves and that's what we've tried to do and that won’t change for this weekend.”
On the Tigers’ defeat to Wigan: “It was a shock. We’ve had a couple here where we’ve been the ones dishing out the eights and sevens, also been on the end of a seven and they’re difficult results to take. What I imagine Grant will be looking for is a reaction now, how big a reaction he gets I don’t know.
"What we can’t do is second guess that, we have to be prepared and ready ourselves and if we play to the maximum of our ability and then we come short, then we hold our hands up. What would be a real shame is if we don't turn up the weekend and we allow Hull to get a foothold in the game and that’s what we don’t want.”
On the fitness of Glen Rea and Izzy Brown: “They’re both closer to being available than they were on Tuesday night so we will just have to see. Glen was a real precaution really, we gave him a little bit more time, probably could have pushed him back for Tuesday so we will see. At the minute, not made any selections yet.”
