Tigers prepare for Delap threat

Boaz Myhill
Myhill will face the task of dealing with Delap's throws

Hull City will discuss how to deal with the threat of Stoke's Rory Delap and his throw-ins at training this week.

The Republic of Ireland midfielder has made the headlines with a serious of throws resulting in goals this season and Hull face his side on Saturday.

"We've not talked about it yet," City keeper Boaz Myhill told BBC Look North.

"We'll deal with that on Thursday and Friday. It's up to our players to make Stoke think about us rather than us thinking about them."

Myhill is looking to keep his first clean sheet since the Tigers defeated West Bromwich Albion at the end of October.

The Tigers keeper was also lending his support to a new scheme aimed at getting teenagers to pass basic football coaching qualifications.

He met the youngsters aged between 16 and 19 at the KC Stadium and revealed he too was taking his coaching badges.
