Paul Duffen has back Phil brown to sustain good form. The Tigers are currently 3rd in the table ahead of the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United. Hull have taken 14 points from their 1st 7 games. Duffen told BBC Radio 5 Live: "The good thing is there is nothing about our tactics that can be sussed out.
"Phil has proved himself to be a tactical magician. He outmanoeuvred Arsene Wenger at the Emirates Stadium and not many have done that."
"We have had three fantastic away wins so far this season," he explained.
"But after the Newcastle game the reportage was dominated by the mess that Newcastle are in rather than giving us credit for the victory.
"At Arsenal last week there was some sort of implication that because they had been beaten by Hull that it was humiliation for Arsenal.
"Similarly, on Sunday, we go and beat Spurs and the news is all about Spurs' problems.
"But in some ways we quite like that because as long as we are off the radar we will keep surprising people."
It's been a great start to the campaign and we are immensely proud
of Phil and the boys," he added. "We have got a momentum at the club.
"We are not going to get ahead of ourselves but we are certainly going to enjoy it while we are up there.
"We have got a wonderful atmosphere at the club and a great team of people.
"Everyone is facing in the same direction and I don't think there is any limit to what we can achieve as long as we can keep that on the go."
