Hull blow as Dawson ruled out for five weeks

Hull defender Michael Dawson will be out of action for up to five weeks after suffering a grade two hamstring tear against Chelsea. "Unfortunately it's a grade two tear and it could be anything from three, four, five weeks minimum I'd have thought," said boss Steve Bruce.

"That's happened to much to us from the first day of the season with Robert Snodgrass to Dawson, to (Nikica) Jelavic to (Mohamed) Diame...it's been one thing after another in that department.

"We could do with a little more luck because we've had four or five with pretty ugly injuries and we could without it."
