McShane set for Tigers exit after bust-up

Hull City 0 Swansea City 1

McShane is the only member of the current Tigers squad to have been around in their first Premier League campaign in 2008/09, making exactly 100 first-team appearances. Only six of those have come this season and the 28-year-old hasn’t featured since the 1-0 defeat at Burnley on November 8.

The Ireland international’s Twitter feed last week suggested all was not well as he retweeted a succession of fan messages pleading for him not to be sold or to return to the team.
