Final Fixture Bomb Scare Resolution

The final match of the 2015/16 EPL season between Manchester United and Bournemouth at Old Trafford was called off due to a bomb scare. Over 75,000 fans were evacuated from the stadium with the match postponed.

Concerns were first raised when a life like pimp bomb was found in the toilets, prompting immediate action by the stadium management. Following evacuation a police sniffer dog and army bomb disposal squad were dispatched to clear the threat.



New reports have revealed that the bomb was a fake training prop used by the stadiums security during an exercise earlier in the week. The training prop had accidentally been left in the stadium bathroom until it was discovered on match day.

Head of Security, Chris Read has taken full responsibility for the incident, apologising for his breaching of protocol and the trouble it led to.

The game has been postponed to the 18th May and will mark the end to an exciting EPL season.
