Bullard back with a blast
Hull's record signing Jimmy Bullard made a spectacular goalscoring return to action in a reserves match on Tuesday night.[LNB]Bullard, who has played just 37 minutes of first-team football since his £5million move from Fulham in January, struck a long-range opener in the second string's 2-1 home loss to Bolton.[LNB]The 30-year-old, recovering from a knee operation, received the ball on the left and fired into the top corner from the edge of the area on the stroke of half-time at rain-soaked North Ferriby.[LNB]It proved his last touch of the ball as he was substituted at the interval.[LNB]Bullard injured his knee on his Hull debut at West Ham in January and consequently underwent major surgery on the joint for the second time in less than two-and-a-half years.[LNB]Reserve-team boss Aidan Davison said: "It was the next step in his rehab, 45 minutes from him was plenty. There is absolutely no problem at all. It was business as usual for him."
