MANCHESTER UNITED and Chelsea are reportedly among the most dangerous grounds in the Premier League.
A Freedom of Information request by freebets.com, via the Mail, claims there were 30 incidents logged during a one-year period with the Health and Safety Executive.
United had no less than three major reports logged during the undated time frame, with a carpenter managing to drill through his own thumb while fitting a door on a bar at Old Trafford.
Another incident saw an employee taken to hospital with vomiting after suffering from smoke inhalation when protesting fans lit flares and smoke bombs.
Meanwhile, a chef received an electric shock from a faulty light switch which was missing a button cap, sparking an unfruitful internal investigation.
The report read: “He burnt the end of his finger and felt the current travel up his arm and across his chest.
“He felt sick for a while and confused.”
At Chelsea, a steward ended up with a spark from a flare in his eye.
A fan waved it in his face after initially being asked to drop it.
And another supporter then threw a full beer over the steward’s head in an attempt to put the spark out.
Another incident at Stamford Bridge saw two fans hurt while slipping over as they left the ground after a game.
Liverpool had two records as well, with one unfortunate fan suffering fractured vertebra during an organised abseil from the roof of Anfield.
Meanwhile, a tour guide ended up with an injured nose after walking into a gantry shutter.
At Sheffield United, a ball boy suffered a broken hand while getting a ball before a match.
Bramall Lane also saw one fan break his jaw and require stitches to his knee after a fall from a gangway.
Elsewhere, Man City reported a fan suffering from a broken finger after being pushed down a flight of stairs.
A Crystal Palace fan ended up with a broken shoulder blade while falling during a goal celebration.
And a student celebrating his graduation at a ceremony at Brighton’s Amex Stadium ended up cracking his head after attempting to slide down a railing.
