Hammers lodge complaint against Hodgson

The Premier League have confirmed that they have received an official complaint from West Ham over Fulham manager Roy Hodgson’s decision to field a weakened team against Hull last Saturday.

Hodgson chose to rest five key players for the 2-0 defeat at the KC Stadium, which allowed the Tigers to pull level with Gianfranco Zola’s relegation threatened side on 27 points.
