Hull City defender Andy Dawson is remaining positive that the Tigers can shake off their recent run of poor form. Hull are now just six points off the relegation places and face bottom of the table West Brom at home on Saturday.

"Those games aren't going to kill off our season and we've got a massive game on Saturday and one we must go and win," he said.

"The quicker we get points the quicker the confidence will build and the more belief we'll have.

"If we do then the winning mentality will return and then we're on 30 points and everything changes.

"I think it's going to be hard to set a points target this year. We know what we've got to do. We need to get as many points as we can because I'm not sure how many we'll need.

"We've had a dip in form but the belief and togetherness of the squad hasn't changed and that will see us through to the end of the season."
