    Best is the Football Special burger sold outside Bramall Lane.

    Worst was a pie I had at Watford away on New Years Day about 8 years ago. It was a midday kick-off, and I’d been out in The Venue in New Cross until about 5am. Was literally shaking as I was trying to eat that pie, but my old man insisted that I needed it.

    Early 80s meat pie at Huddersfield. All of us in the car had one and we were all paying homage to the great porcelain god soon on our return.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m00297d5 - interesting piece on match day food on Radio 4 which starts down the Valley. Pretty harsh reviews of our food offering!

    Yes, I'd echo that...... but didn't listen to it tbh....... the worst football food I've had this season was a hot dog at the Valley on a Tuesday night the other week (Chicken George don't do Tuesdays)....... truly dreadful....... should have gone pie!

    To be fair that's what they're meant to taste like  :D

    it's a  very competitive contest .. generally football ground food is over priced, over cooked/warmed up and mostly shite .. I gave up buying it years ago .. had some good stuff from vendors outside grounds, even there you gotta be very choosy

    I tried the “Famous Burton Faggots” after a few ales last season….
    The beer was excellent (outside the ground), but the Faggots (inside the ground) where minging!
    Guess just not for my soft southern palate.

    Somewhere in a parrallel universe a northern money is griping about jellied eels.

    Burger at Stockport this season - inside the ground - was quite frankly, appalling - I managed 1 mouthful - just shocking

    The worst I've had was a meat pie away at Huddersfield in the eighties. Luckily I held on to it during the car drive home, but my body chose to evict the pie and everything else as soon as I got home.

    Burger bought at Watford. I think the tray it came in would have tasted better. £8.50.

    I took it back and complained but didn't get a refund.

    The worst food I had was from the burger van outside our club shop. The meat was decent, but the bread was awful. It gave me a stomach ache for the whole match lol.

    I saw England out in Moscow in 1992, the sausage served up I would not give to my dog.

    Haven't read the full thread, so may have been mentioned before...

    Boiled burgers from a van in Harvey Gardens.   80s I think.  

    And yet I had them more than once.

    They’re nicknamed bellyache burgers for a reason!

    Yep, didn't smell that great either, needed piles of onions to cope with it. But like you kept going back !!
