Apparently depends if they trim or do a full repair, so may be longer than I first thought if they go for the full repair.

The season is effectively over so I would sooner they made a proper job of it so that we get him back fully fit for next season.

His full tweet was "Well news I expected to hear. Torn meniscus that needs repairing, surgery is the next step. #teamrehab".

His season over then. Gives him chance the get the best possible repair, recovery and pre-season.

He's been a highlight for me this season, think he has a big future ahead of him, hopefully at Hull.

will need keyhole to trim off what ever needs taking of. Min 2 weeks, in reality 3.

Wouldn't play him again this season personally, let him have the surgery and plenty of recovery time well before the next pre season. Absolute no reason to rush him back when we have nothing to play for.
