Town boss Roy Keane has revealed that defender Darren O’Dea has returned from international duty with Ireland with a tight hamstring. The Blues boss says the on-loan Celtic man will be assessed tomorrow before a decision is made on whether he faces Hull on Saturday.

O’Dea, who played for 67 minutes against Norway last night, could join a number of other players on the sidelines when Town travel to the KC Stadium.

Keane outlined the situation regarding his other injured players: “Gareth McAuley will be out for another two or three weeks. Luke Hyam tore his hamstring last week and he’ll be out for four to five. Mark Kennedy damaged his hamstring and will be out three weeks and David Norris is very much doubtful for the weekend.”

Hungarian pair Tamás Priskin and Márton Fülöp are not yet back from playing in their national side’s victory over Lithuania but are not thought to have picked up knocks.

colonel added 22:10 - Nov 18 How many players have had hamstring problems this season? Seems higher than normal, maybe the training programme needs revisiting?
