A football fan has travelled up and down the UK in a bid to compile his very own pie chart within football grounds.

So far, 22-year-old Tom Dickinson has visited 89 grounds in completing his very own football survey, and has so far declared Morecambe to provide fans with the best pies.

His last game will be Bolton against Hull and he believes that his efforts would have cost him around £3,000 in total by the time he has finished.

Overall, he declared Walsall to have the worst pies, while believing the food, alongside the fans, was generally better at lower league grounds, according to the Herts Advertiser.

However, the results have not gone down well with some Walsall fans.

Daniel O'Connor, who has one of the half-time treats at every home game, told the Express and Star: "Our chicken balti pie is a taste sensation and our meat and potato pie is just as good, if not better than most lower league grounds offer.

"In my 12 years of pie-eating at away grounds I reckon 70 per cent of them have got to be worse than ours."
