It’s that time of year again, the time when the “Football Rumour Mill” stars to throw out predications along the lines of ….

‘I spoke to a bloke in the pub whose brother knows someone who works as a cleaner for Port Vale and they saw the Frank Lampard and Petr Cech in the car park at Vale Park, which means that Jose Mourinho is going to swap them both, and pay £15 million, to bring Craig James to the Bridge.’

Other favourite topics are which manager will win the sack race (Steve Bruce I’m looking at you!), and of course which club will be next to benefit from a one of Roman Abramavich’s Russian Billionaire mates benevolence.

Anyway you herd this rumour here first Hull City are to be taken over by the Haven holiday company. As these pictures from the KC Stadium prove.

Haven’s mascot Rory the Tiger.
