An Arsenal pie shop has told supporters the 'Theo Walcott jerk chicken pie' will remain on the menu despite the forward moving to Everton.
'Piebury Corner' near Holloway tube station in north London had been asked whether Walcott's name would remain on the board after his £20m move to Goodison Park was confirmed on Wednesday.
The store issued a strong response, tweeting: "To answer a few queries @theowalcott's name stays on the Jerk Chicken pie permanently.
"(His) 108 goals and an opening winning goal in an FA Cup Final is more than worthy of PieLegend status in our books. #classispermanent."
Walcott, 28, ended a 12-year stay at the Emirates by signing a three-and-a-half-year deal at the Toffees, after more than 400 appearances for the Gunners.
