Manchester United fans were left confused and mildly entertained on Wednesday when an employee apparently pocket-started a live video feed on the club’s Instagram page.
Usually, thousands of supporters would immediately flock to the channel to get some unexpected bonus footage; an interview with a player, perhaps, or a training drill being undertaken.
On this occasion it was rather more mundane and yet, for plenty, apparently equally enjoyable - as over 37,000 tuned in to listen to an account administrator apparently making lunch.

Training pitch visuals and the shouts of players were replaced by a blurry, often entirely dark screen, the hum of a microwave and a clatter of cutlery.
That didn’t stop the tens of thousands from staying hooked, though the video was later removed from the club’s account.
A 30-second recording of the live session was posted on Twitter, with most supporters commenting during the broadcast seeming to take the “goof” in a light-hearted way.
