Pictured: The 'bomb' that caused Old Trafford to be evacuated as security boss behind the fiasco admits 'full responsibility' for the 'lapse'

Pictured: The 'bomb' that caused Old Trafford to be evacuated 

 Speaking outside his home, Chris Reid, MD of Kent-based Security Search Management and Solutions Ltd, said the item was a 'mock up of a pipe bomb', which was eight inches long, with 'brass fittings at each end' as he showed members of the press a similar device (pictured right). He revealed it also had a white label which said: 'Training aid. If found, contact SSMS on 07*********'. Manchester United today insisted it is 'proud' of yesterday's terror evacuation and blamed the security expert for leaving a fake bomb inside Old Trafford despite telling them all 14 had already been recovered. United is yet to say sorry 24 hours after 76,000 fans were ordered to leave Old Trafford when an 'incredibly lifelike explosive device' was found wired to pipes in a toilet just 20 minutes before kick-off.
