Stuart Green

Crystal Palace midfielder Stuart Green insists he won't be bothered by the Hull City boo boys.

Green, 26, has had an impressive start to Palace's campaign and comes up against his former teammates when the Eagles entertain Hull on Saturday.

Manager Peter Taylor and Leon Cort will also be re-united with their old clubs but it's Green who expects abuse from the visiting supporters.

"I am sure their fans will give me a bit of stick like they did last time, but the way we are going we would expect to win at home," he said.

"I have had some stick off their fans but if they are quiet when you play, then you obviously haven't done something at your last club. I have no point to prove to Hull and their fans - I proved everything there.

"It will be special facing Hull - they are more experienced than when I was there. I will speak to a few of the Hull lads before the game. There are good lads that are still there as well as the new ones.

"It will be a really hard game. I won't say there will be lots of goals, but it will be tight and an exciting ones for the fans."
