    The player, 26, was heading to Villa Park for his team’s clash with Manchester City when the £200,000 4-litre Urus V8 careered off the road.
    Witnesses told how Hause appeared dazed and in shock after the airbags of his flash motor were deployed in the impact.
    Stunned dad Sabbir Ahmed, 43, said: “My daughter and hordes of children stand on the corner in front of the gates before and after school.
    “It was a staggering slice of luck that no one was killed.
    “The black Lamborghini lost control in wet conditions. Everyone is shaking at what could have happened. When I saw the wreckage I thought there must be bodies.
    At another time of day, anyone could have been killed.”

    The Lambo ploughed through the fence in Aston, Birmingham, just 25 minutes before pupils began flooding out of the three schools at the site.
    Police were called and spoke to Hause. A spokesman last night said it was a “damage-only collision” and were unable to provide any details. Aston Villa was asked for comment.
    In May, Hause revealed he had begged officers to let him off for speeding as he was on his way to meet Prince William at the opening of his club’s new training ground.

    Chris Kamara insists his former England cricket captain pal Michael Vaughan ‘isn’t a racist’
    Vaughan is alleged to have told Asian Yorkshire team-mates there are ‘too many of you lot’ in 2009, which he denies
    Sky Sports presenter Kammy, 63, said: “I have known Michael Vaughan for long enough and I know him really well and in my opinion he isn’t racist at all.
    “That’s the last thing I would accuse him of.
    “He is a good pal of mine. I would never be able to believe he is racist.”
    Vaughan’s career is in tatters after being accused of making racist remarks to whistle-blower cricketer Azeem Rafiq, 30.
    Vaughan, 47, is alleged to have told Asian Yorkshire team-mates there are “too many of you lot” in 2009, which he denies.
    Chris, who will be the new host of Channel 5’s Cash in the Attic, said: “I can’t say whether he said it or not. It is hard to comment because if someone else believes he did say it or is racist then that’s their opinion.
    “But from my personal point of view, I know he isn’t racist. I have known him long enough to say that with confidence.

    “I know he will be devastated and hurt over this.”
    Ex-Leeds United player Chris is a long-term advocate for kicking out racism in ­football as a patron of Show Racism the Red Card.

    “With a third of fans returning home smelling less than fragrant, who can blame them?”
