Cornwall-based football club retracts kit sponsored by controversial adult star Bonnie Blue - and insist they did not agree to partnership fans labelled as 'embarrassing' to 'offend'
In a statement on Friday, Calstock FC said the Football Association's 'interpretation of the regulations' prohibited them from wearing a kit funded by the 25-year-old that bore a 'BB' logo.
The club, which describes itself as 'a drinking team with a football problem', had agreed for the social media influencer to become their main kit sponsor and unveiled a changed blue away strip.
There was widespread criticism on social media to the announcement but Calstock, who, in their statement stressed 'we did not do this to offend', has not indicated that this played a part in their decision to end the agreement.
Furthermore, they have now launched a Go Fund Me page to replace the strip.
'So as I am sure you are aware Calstock FC secured a generous sponsorship deal with social media influencer Bonnie Blue with which we acquired a new away kit (just to be clear this was not to replace our home kit of yellow/black & it is an adult team/club),' the club wrote in a Facebook post on Friday.
Calstock announced that Bonnie Blue will no longer sponsor their kit due to the 'FA's interpretation of the regulations'
'Due to the FA's interpretation of the regulations we are retracting the kit bearing the BB logo.
'We did not do this to offend. We, as an adult club & collective, categorically do not advocate or support oppression of women.
'It was great to see that so many people took an interest in our adult club & offered support so to this end we have set up a Go Fund Me page on which we would be delighted to receive your donations as we now need to replace this kit & need to secure the future financial viability of the club.'
In addition to the 'BB' logo on the front of the kit, the phrase 'Up The Bonnie Blue Bees' is also printed along the hem on the back of the sapphire-blue tops.
Bonnie, from Nottinghamshire, rose to fame after sleeping with 'barely-legal' boys at Freshers' Weeks for content on her OnlyFans and recently travelled to the US to have sex with teenage college students for Spring Break.
The adult star also ruffled many feathers after claiming to have slept with 1,057 men in 12 hours.
Bonnie - whose real name is Tia Emma Billinger - had published the news on her Instagram story and the St Piran league, Div 2 East team reposted it and replied 'Massive thank you,' along with a blue love heart and a bee emoji.
The clip revealing the news racked up a whopping 880,000 views on Instagram with hundreds of people commenting their thoughts on the collaboration.
One wrote: 'This isn't a flex, it's actually embarrassing as f*** for you.'
Calstock FC then replied: 'Each to their own opinion and you're entitled to that but as a small local club, we are proud to be sponsored by her and we very much appreciate the sponsorships as we do all our sponsors. If you have nothing nice to say, just scroll on by.'
Another penned: 'Possibly one of the worst sponsorships ever'
A third said: 'If my man was on that soccer team, I'd break up immediately.'
It comes as Bonnie was 'permanently banned' by Nottingham Forest and 'escorted off the premises', having turned up at their stadium after offering to pleasure fans.

Celtic ultras group blast board as they name SEVEN grievances with club chiefs including signings, tickets and STADIUM
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A CELTIC ultras group have launched a stinging blast at the club's board in the wake of Wednesday's Champions League flop. The fed up fans have fired out a list of SEVEN grievances they currently have with under-fire chiefs. Sign up for the Celtic newsletter Sign up 4 Bhoys Celtic have hit out at the board 4 Peter Lawwell and Michael Nicholson were subjected to chants at Celtic Park Credit: Kenny Ramsay 4 It was a frustrating night for manager Brendan Rodgers 4 The Hoops were held to a 0-0 draw by Kairat Almaty Credit: Kenny Ramsay The Celtic board were the subjects of fan fury during the Champions League play-off clash with Kairat Almaty. On a night when many Hoops fans would've been expecting to see their team take control of the tie, they instead watched their team labour to a forgetful 0-0 draw against the Kazakhstan outfit. It's a result that means there's still plenty to do in next week's 7,000-mile round trip to a country that borders China with Champions League qualification hanging in the balance. Loud chants of 'sack the board' echoed around Celtic Park at various points during the second half while chairman Peter Lawwell and chief executive Michael Nicholson were also singled out with other X-rated chants. Much of the Celtic fans' current state of unhappiness stems from the recruitment - or rather, a perceived lack thereof. Manager Brendan Rodgers has repeatedly spoken of his desire for more players throughout the summer. Celts supporters have felt the board should've built on last season's strong position, investing in more quantity and quality, especially following the exits of high profile stars such as Kyogo and Nicolas Kuhn for big money. Those frustrations came to a head with the chanting during Wednesday's Euro clash. Now, prominent ultras group Bhoys Celtic have made their feelings known. But the situation on transfers is far from the only issue they currently have with those running the club. Helicopter Sunday: Rangers seal one of the most dramatic titles EVER as Celtic collapse on final day It's just one of SEVEN key grievances they've laid out, with topics ranging from transfers to tickets and season ticket costs to the STADIUM. They did, however, call on Celtic fans to unite and "back the team, hold the board accountable." In a lengthy Instagram post, the group said: "On Wednesday night we joined thousands of Celtic fans throughout the stadium in chanting 'sack the board.' "For us, this chant was not just about one poor result in a European qualifying campaign, although the last two decades have seen many of those - often due to a lack of timely investment to strengthen our playing squad, something many of our managers have called out during their time here. "While 'sacking' the board may not be a realistic demand, such chants are one of the few methods of airing discontent available to us due to the way our club operate. "For us, this is about the board's continuous incompetence and total disregard of the opinions of Celtic fans who spend thousands of pounds every season supporting the club and see little to no return on investment either in the playing squad, the stadium and the match day experience to name just a few grievances. "Examples include: "1. The recent season ticket price increase for the 2025/26 season. These were justified by the club as necessary to cover the recent national minimum wage and national insurance increases for match day staff - while we have tens of millions of pounds in the bank. "2. The severe lack of investment into an ageing stadium, with ordinary fans seeing no improvement of their match day experience over many years. "3. The lack of transparency around ticketing: tickets for away matches becoming more difficult to attain for fans who've attended matches for years, a dysfunctional ticketing office and a slow march towards pricing increases throughout Scotland which our club are complicit in. "4. The fans survey which was undertaken a year ago with much fanfare from the club, yet the results are still unreleased and excuse after excuse is given as to why not. "5. The lack of meaningful engagement and unwillingness to work with active fan groups to improve match day atmosphere, at times descending into total farce, such as the suspended ban currently imposed on the Green Brigade. "6. Unwillingness to explore or work towards a 'Celtic End' - one of the key results of the fans survey, despite many examples now of other clubs in Scotland working proactively with their active fan organisations. This total refusal to increase standing capacity despite overwhelming demand leads to 'solutions' such as fencing off parts of the stadium and introducing enhanced security checks with no regard for fan safety. "7. The lack of update on or release of the Fairhurst Inquiry into the unacceptable kettling of Celtic fans nearly five months on. "Wednesday night was just one poor result, but taken with the above issues, highlights our many grievances with the way the club is run. "While we may still win the tie and we may strengthen the squad this transfer window, the issues outlined above are just some of many which will not change without accountability and transparency from the Celtic board."
