Hull City's Jimmy Bullard could make injury comeback against Everton FC
HULL manager Phil Brown has revealed Jimmy Bullard could start tomorrow's Premier League match against Everton at Goodison Park.[LNB]The midfielder, who has been sidelined with a knee injury since December, was left out of the squad for the defeat against West Ham two weeks ago but has since played for the reserves and in a behind-closed-doors friendly against Doncaster this week.[LNB]'He's got a very good chance but it's the bigger picture that we're involved in,' said the Hull boss. 'If he misses Sunday, there's 10 big cup finals to go, and it's important that, if he does start Sunday, he's available for the other 10.[LNB]'That's the decision that lies firmly on my chest. If I feel Jimmy can have an important role, then he will start. The decision's already made.'[LNB]Brown has told his Hull players to lay down a marker for the rest of the season at Goodison Park.[LNB]The Tigers will be playing only their third match in four weeks and are looking to take their first points from the last of a three-game away run.[LNB]Defeats at Blackburn and West Ham took their record away from the KC Stadium this season to 10 defeats and four draws from 14 matches.[LNB]And Brown's side find themselves back in the relegation zone ahead of the trip to Merseyside following Bolton's win over Wolves last weekend.[LNB]With a home match against Arsenal to come a week tomorrow, Brown said: 'We are 18th in the Premier League. We understand what's to come. We've got two tough games coming into the final 11 matches.[LNB]'Probably no-one expects us to get anything; the pressure's off us to an extent. Hopefully we can raise our game better than what we did at Upton Park and take that to Goodison and give Everton a game.
