Let them eat fruit: Manchester United close staff canteen in latest cost-cutting
Sir Jim Ratcliffe also trims food offering at training baseBillionaire Ineos owner out to make club leaner operation
Sir Jim Ratcliffe is to close the staff canteen at Old Trafford and replace the free lunches currently on offer with fruit, the Guardian understands.
The club’s largest single minority shareholder is also set to implement a similar move at United’s Carrington training base, with only players receiving lunch as gratis. The remainder of staff there will be offered soup and bread.
