Rob Hulse



With Leeds failing to gain promotion to the Premiership, Hulse's ambition led elsewhere and in July 2006, Leeds accepted a bid of £2.2 million from Sheffield United although the fee could rise to £3m,[7] beating Norwich to Hulse's signature.[8]

Hulse scored on his debut for the Blades against title challengers Liverpool; scoring the first goal of the 2006-07 Premiership season,[9] although Liverpool managed to equalise through a Robbie Fowler penalty. He went on to be the clubs's top scorer for the season, netting regularly until March.

On 17 March, Hulse and Chelsea's goalkeeper Petr Čech challenged for the ball in a league game at Stamford Bridge, resulting in a horrific injury. Hulse almost turned in a low Keith Gillespie cross but Čech raced out to smother his effort and in the collision Hulse's ankle appeared to snap beneath him. After a five-minute delay Hulse was carried off on a stretcher and taken to hospital with what was thought to be a double fracture[10]. On 20 March, it was confirmed that Hulse had fractured his left leg in two places, for which he underwent surgery.[11] His season over, he still finished up as United's top scorer in the Premiership with eight league goals.

Hulse returned to the first team in December 2007 after 9 months out.[12] Following the end of the 2007/08 season, Hulse was strongly linked with a move away to United's Championship rivals Derby County, with a few of £1.75m quoted by the press.[13]
