    At least they would have been down to 10 men before the first half ended.

    Having perused the rules of the FA Cup, there is nothing to state that players are not eligible to face their parent clubs in the competition.
    The Premier League prohibits players on loan playing against their parent clubs, but the FA Cup competition rules don’t express any similar ruling. Players on season-long loans don’t even have to be given permission to appear, unlike players on short-term loans, who require written permission on the Friday before the game.

    arsenal allowed their players on loan at hull to play

    Nope - nobody wanted to pay his wages and he didn't want to take a pay cut (can't blame him for that personally). So loan was best we got.

    Contract is up at end of this season so he'll move on a free.
