'It's always been an honour to be captain' - Coyle

Hull City captain Lewis Coyle says he feels in a good spot physically despite missing pre-season due to a hamstring injury.

Coyle has made four Championship appearances this season, his most recent in a 2-1 defeat by Watford on Saturday.

The 29-year-old defender says he was lucky his injury only kept him out for seven weeks and insists the Tigers are in a good place despite a so-so start that has yielded eight points from seven games.

"We've still got a few players to come back that have been a huge miss for us - I think when we have a fully fit and healthy squad, we do have a fantastic squad in the Championship," Coyle told BBC Radio Humberside.
