First start/appearance for Hull tonight vs Birmingham in the FA Cup. Harry Vaughan and Sean McLoughlin also in the starting lineup.

Not sure if he was injured or what but he only linked up with Hull on Monday there.

Delighted for him, hopefully he gets a run out. Will have to throw an eye to this with Connolly and Christie starting for Hull and Travers, McNally for Stoke.

On to the Hull bench for (I think) the first time today.

We definitely need some left backs coming through so hopefully this is a good move.
They may soon realise Vinagre can't defend that well. Very fun skilfull player but he's no LB. Although depends on the system he is playing in. |

The really encouraging thing for me is that the Hull manager Rosenior has the inside track on lads at Brighton and he saw fit to push for this move. I wouldnt expect him to walk straight into the first team, but he should get plenty of football.

Good to see him getting a permanent move.
He will be up against Vinagre and Greaves for the left back spot. Vinagre is a left back on loan from Sporting and Greaves is more at centre back covering at left back. So Furlong should get a few chances to break into the first team during the season and see some game time especially with how relentless the Championship is with its fixture list.

That's assuming he's playing though. Ruben Vinagre is the current Hull left back and has a fair bit of EPL experience under his belt as well as playing for Sporting Lisbon in Portugal. I'd expect Furlong to be his backup for now.

Especially if we've got a few friendlies between the qualifiers and NL. If we don't make the playoffs we should have at least five friendlies starting with NZ. It also puts him at a higher level than Roughan when it comes to the U21s. Plus he'll be playing LB whereas Roughan is playing LCB this season. |

Delighted for him, the Irish contingent @ Hull looking good - Christie, McLoughlin, Vaughan, Connolly and now Furlong. Well deserved move for the lad after an excellent loan spell at Motherwell. With McClean and Stevens likely to bow out soon enough, this lad can stake a claim for that LB/LWB berth. Lovely left foot also, can take a good set piece.

Yep that sounds good. If he puts a good run together he'll be in line for a senior call up before long. He's an orthodox LB/LWB, rather than a converted winger (McClean & O'Dowda) or attacking-mid (Manning), which we could really do with. Hopefully he comes good.

Permanent move to Hull for Furlong, three year deal plus a year's option. Seems like a very good move for him.

They don't want him jumping the fence. They offered James a new improved contract and he celebrated with a nice pint of Guineas.and stakes.

I bet he'll be a horse of a man in a few years. Good sprinter over yards
