[LNB]"Equally I will use every available means to ensure that we continually improve the squad, the facilities and the future prospects."[LNB]Expectations have rocketed around the KC Stadium following Hull's promotion to the Premier League in 2008 but Duffen insists it is important not to get carried away.[LNB]He said: "Unrealistic expectations inevitably lead to disappointment and afford mischief-makers the perfect opportunity to spin their conspiracy theories and fantasies.
