Defender Nathan Doyle has joined Championship side Barnsley on a 3 month loan deal. Doyle joins fellow team mate Caleb Folan out on loan in the Championship after the striker joined Middlesbrough. Doyle has only made one appearance so far this season that came in the league cup against Southend. This will benefit Nathan," said Brown.

"I wouldn't say he has had a stop-start career, it just hasn't really started at Hull City for a number of reasons - the form of Sam Ricketts when Nathan first signed, getting promoted to the Premier League, the arrival of Bernard Mendy and now Paul McShane.

"Because of all that, Nathan has found chances to be the regular right back for Hull City few and far between. I think he needs to kick-start his career at Barnsley and maybe turn our heads that way.

"Regular football, a new challenge and a new manager at Barnsley will help. We'll be watching him this weekend, as we will do on a number of weekends during the course of his three months there.

"There's a 28-day call-back clause in the deal to cover ourselves if we have a spate of injuries.

"We wish Nathan well."

The clear out of fringe players has now started and more are expected to leave this month
