Gerrard goes back to Hull a Cardiff player

Gerrard on holiday last season

How much are the Hull City fans looking forward to seeing their 'Player of the Season' from last season, not a lot now he is back in a Cardiff City shirt.

The player in question defender Anthony Gerrard spent the whole of last season on loan with the Humberside club after he losing the faith of then manager Dave Jones.

During his time on loan surprisingly featuring in both games against the Bluebirds when Cardiff who had Hull midfielder Seyi Olofinjana on loan come to a deal to play in the games. Gerrard played 44 games, scoring 5 goals.

He returned to Cardiff to an uncertain future, Hull would have like to sign him, but with the aftermath of the play-off failure the club was waiting on the much-fabled Dave Jones report of the next step. It came to pass Jones was sacked and in came a new boy giving everyone a fresh start to prove themselves which Gerrard did.

While Gerrard will be one of the lynch pin of the Cardiff City defence while tomorrow former loan player Seyi Olofinjana, will be out recovering from knee surgery and out for some time. I hope the Hull fans give Gerrard a good reception tomorrow.
