Interesting in the context of the debate over whether to make Rushworth our no. 2 keeper that he told Hull's website that, presumably until the last minute, "I didn’t know if I was going out on loan or staying." https://www.wearehullcity.co.uk/news/2024/august/30/rushworth-signs-for-hull-city-on-loan/

I see he has still been the bench keeper at Hull although I appreciate it's still very early. Surely better to experience being a bench keeper for us than for Hull?

He’s not even made their bench yet. Although I’m not sure if his transfer went through in time for him to play against Leeds so he may have only been eligible for one game so far.

I'm sure I read he had a minor injury

Found it tucked away on the Hull Live website. He apparently has what has been described as a bruise. He should be fit for their game against Stoke on Friday.

I think this one might end up being a failure and him coming back in January - they signed a couple of keepers in the summer and then signed Rushworth as well. I've no doubt, without even seeing the other two, that Rushworth is the best of the 3 but it might have put noses out of joint and made everyone involved unhappy.

Yeh, It often makes more sense for the loanee club to play the player that is there for the longer term unless you have a very good reason not to

Obviously it won't be a condition of the loan that he is no.1 keeper, or has to play every match - but if he doesn't he will be hooked in January and sent somewhere better, that's an absolute certainty!

The way things are going at Hull he might not get to play under Bulut.

Very highly rated at Hull according to a Tigers supporting mate.

.............but many on the Hull fans' forum questioning why they've taken him.
