The club can confirm that Craig Fagan broke his leg in the Tigers' 2-1 victory over Newcastle United. Fagan suffered a fracture to his right tibia following Danny Guthrie's challenge which resulted in the Newcastle midfielder receiving a red card during stoppage time at St. James' Park. The injury could keep the 25-year-old on the sidelines for anywhere between six weeks and three months.
Hull boss Phil Brown said: "It cannot be tolerated, it needs to be kicked out of the game.
"When you see that the end product is him putting a fellow pro in a cast, it's just not right.
"That's the horrible side of the game. I don't care what is going on at Newcastle, you cannot tolerate this.
"If I go back to the incident, my players were killing time in the corner, something that every Premier League club does, no matter who you are.
"In the process of doing that, someone has decided to take the matter into his own hands and lashed out at Craig Fagan."
