Only just back fit according to the manager: http://www.hullcitytigers.com/news/a...a-2940107.aspx

Journalist: We saw young Josh Tymon play last weekend and he is now away with the England U17s. Do you have any more youngsters coming through with him?
Steve Bruce: No, unfortunately not at the moment. Brian Lenihan has just got himself fit after a horrific 18 months with injury and once he’s up to speed he’ll probably go out on loan. The same with Greg Luer, with what we’ve got and with what we’ve brought in, he needs to go out and play somewhere when the loan window opens.
