LONDON, Nov 25 (Reuters) - Premier League strugglers Hull City stunned Everton 3-2 to pull away from the relegation zone as Fulham moved into the top 10 with an impressive 3-0 win over Blackburn Rovers on Wednesday.

Hull scored their goals in the first 28 minutes through Stephen Hunt, Andy Dawson and Dean Marney

Although Everton produced a strong-second half and scored courtesy of a Kamil Zayatte own goal and a penalty from Louis Saha, they remain in 14th place on 15 points. Hull are level on points one spot below

Fulham went ahead on 43 minutes through Erik Nevland against Blackburn and the weathered pressure from the visitors before U.S. international Clint Dempsey sealed the win with goals in the 67th minute and on the stroke of full time.

Fulham are now 10th on 18 points from 13 games while Blackburn, two places behind, have 16 points from the same number of matches.

    Adebayor is a c**t and City will never win anything with him. He will become poison to their locker room as soon as they hit a bad patch.
