Footballers Dean Windass and Marlon King have apparently made up after a recent fight in a casino.

The Scarborough Evening News quoted their assistant manager Brian Horton as saying the argument "go blown up out of all proportion" and that the Hull City strikers are now on speaking terms.

"They've played together and they've spoken together," he remarked. "It's something that happens 100 times in football and it's done and dusted now."

Windass and King allegedly got into a physical confrontation in the early hours of the morning at the Opera House Casino in Scarborough earlier this month.

Some reports claim that King headbutted his team-mate at the £7 million venue, which celebrated its third birthday in October.

The casino is one of the most expensive entertainment developments in Scarborough and features slot machines, blackjack, Caribbean stud poker, roulette and Texas hold'em poker tournaments spread over its 23,000 sq ft of gaming space.
