Tottenham footy followers name out ‘most disgusting’ membership meal ever in brutal posts

On Oct 14, 2024

Football stadium food – often referred to as ‘footy scran’ – is always a hot topic among fans, especially when visiting a new ground for the first time.

This was certainly true for several Tottenham Hotspur supporters who were left feeling disappointedly hungry in Hungary after rejecting the menu at their Europa League opponents Ferencvaros, earlier this month. The Budapest club’s version of cheese and onion toast was a far cry from the fare back home at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which opened its doors in April 2019.

There, supporters can tuck into pie with mash and gravy or a beef lasagne with garlic bread and rocket salad at half time for a fair London price. Away from home, however, despite being more than reasonably priced at 400 Hungarian Forint (around 85p), the Hungarian dish offered little to appease the hunger pangs of those who took the two-and-a-half hour flight.

In a photo shared by X account, Sports Scran (@SportScran) and captioned with a translation of “greasy bread”, a Spurs fan’s card container could be seen with a barely toasted slice of bread, melted cheese and several hastily chopped slices of red onion.

Thankfully, Spurs went on to win the match 2-1 thanks to goals from Brennan Johnson and Pape Matar Sarr, but it seems the food on their travels left an unwanted lasting impression. Scores took to X to slam the “delicacy”, with many confessing they’ll never criticise food back in Britain again.

“Did a five-year old make this? ” one puzzled punter questioned. “Hungarian food is too funny,” chuckled another, adding: “This is what my Hungarian friend gave me last year. He said it’s a Hungarian delicacy.”

A third critic lashed out: “It’s crazy how some places just don’t understand food.” A fourth quipped: “Wouldn’t eat this if I was starving in a zombie apocalypse.” Meanwhile, a Hibernian supporter from Scotland couldn’t resist a dig either: “Will never complain about the a**e collapsing out a steak pie at Easter Road again.”

Others, however, suggested the plate may have some use as a beer-absorbing miracle: “Plenty will mock this, but it’ll save your life at the eighth pint,” one X user joked, while another admitted: “I’d scran that. Really soak up the beers.”

A third chimed in praising the snack: “Sorry to say but that’s scran. For that price? Those simple yet unmistakable flavours? You could do so much worse.” And a bargain-hunting fourth person agreed: “I’d take four for that price.”

In contrast, over at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, reviews keep rolling in with a solid 4.5 out of 5 TripAdvisor score from over 800 visitors. Fans rave about the grub and service, with one visitor left gushing after their trip: “The Beavertown Neckoil is outstanding, a truly lovely pint.”

They continued: “Really enjoyed the Margarita pizza, for commercial catering this was very tasty, really enjoyable. And highly recommended. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Recommend you arrive well before kick off and enjoy the food and drink.”
