Wycombe Wanderers boss Peter Taylor is thrilled with former club Hull City's superb start to the Premiership season.

With Hull sitting third in the table, Taylor told BBC Look North: "All credit has got to go to [manager] Phil Brown.

"The players are up against Spurs, Newcastle, Arsenal and Everton and they seem to be playing with no fear.

"Phil's signed a couple of players who score amazing goals but the most pleasing thing is to see [Boaz] Myhill, [Andy] Dawson and [Ian] Ashbee."

The trio played for Taylor when Hull City were in the bottom tier of the Football League and earned back to back promotions into the Championship.

The former England Under-21 chief, who left Hull for Crystal Palace in June 2006, added: "I thought Daws thought at times he shouldn't be on there but with the ability he's got he should be."
