He tweeted: “Scrambled egg and mashed potato. Wow. Thanks for lunch @ManUtd.”

But United’s Theatre of Dreams is far from being the only football ground to have received a kicking for its food.

Lower-league clubs often come up trumps, putting bigger teams to shame, with giant portions and gourmet grub at bargain prices.
