RUFC - Evans 'Hull one of best teams in draw'

Rotherham United Manager, Steve Evans is relishing the Capital One League Cup tie against Hull City at the KC Stadium, who he says are one of the 'best teams in the draw.'

Speaking to the Official Site after the draw, the Millers Boss said, 'This game will give us a good early benchmark of where we are and it will be a baptism of fire for what will virtually be a new team that has been put together. I believe that you have to test yourself against the best and compete against the best.

''I am sure if Steve Bruce could have hand picked his draw he would have obviously preferred to be at home, which we all would, but secondly he wouldn't have picked Rotherham, not a chance and he will know that against a Steve Evans team he will get a competitive fixture . It will be his first real competitive game in charge of Hull City so it will be tough, but it is a ground that myself and Paul Raynor have fond memories of because we won there with Crawley in the FA Cup.'
