Hull midfielder Huddlestone desperate to score against Spurs

Hull City midfielder Tom Huddlestone would love to break his goals drought against former club Tottenham.

It is two-and-a-half years since Huddlestone, Hull's record £5.25million signing, scored in the north London derby.

Adding to his tally will lead to him cutting his hair - he has so far raised a five-figure sum for Cancer Research for growing his afro until he next scores.

Huddlestone will get two shots at Spurs over the coming days, with Hull facing Andre Villas-Boas's team in the Capital One Cup next Wednesday.

"I will be in the barber's on Monday," he told the Daily Mail.

"Even though everyone is telling me to keep it if I score. But I will try not to celebrate. When I went back to Pride Park I tried not to, but with it being my first career goal things got the better of me."
