PAUL McShane has a future at Hull City– but only if the defender 'apologises' to his manager Steve Bruce and his Tigers team-mates.
The Republic of Ireland international has been dropped from the first-team by Bruce and played for the under-21 squad in their 2-0 win over Mansfield last night.
McShane took to Twitter to reveal the news of his demotion last week, and Bruce says the central defender will only return to the first squad if he says sorry.
"There's been a lot talked about Paul McShane, it's quite simple," Bruce told today's awaiting media.
"I've heard a lot about nonsense on Twitter.
"He knows why he's training with the under-21 squad at the moment. He's been quite quick to reveal that he is in there.
"I hope that he comes out and tells the reason why. If he apologises to myself and the squad then he will come back into the fold.
"It's entirely up to Paul."
McShane is out of contract at the end of the season, and Bruce is thought to be willing to listen to offers for the former Sunderland defender.
