In a move that’s turned heads across the UK, Bonnie Blue has become the official sponsor of one of England’s tiniest football clubs — and the internet has a lot to say about it.
Her name is now plastered across the front of Calstock FC’s new kit. Based near Plymouth, the self-described “drinking team with a football problem” plays in Division 2 East of the St Piran League and boasts a 17-man squad who clearly aren’t afraid to make a bold statement.
Gone are the club’s familiar black-and-yellow striped kits that matched their bee-themed logo. In their place: a deep sapphire blue ensemble, emblazoned with the double ‘B’ Bonnie Blue logo and the cheeky phrase “Up The Bonnie Blue Bees” stitched along the back hem.
“We’re thrilled to announce a groundbreaking partnership that’s set to shake up the football world!” the club posted on Instagram, accompanied by a swimsuit photo of Bonnie and the caption: “POV: When it leaves the group chat and becomes a reality.”
Bonnie isn’t exactly a stranger to controversy. She rose to fame through explicit Freshers’ Week content and recently made headlines for a trip to the U.S., where she filmed with college students during Spring Break.
Despite the backlash, Calstock FC is standing firm. “As a small local club, we are proud to be sponsored by her and we very much appreciate the sponsorship,” they said, responding to critics online. “If you have nothing nice to say, just scroll on by.”
This isn’t Bonnie’s first brush with the football world — though it’s arguably her most welcome. She was recently banned for life by Nottingham Forest after showing up at the stadium hoping to “entertain” fans post-match. Appearing on the Only Stans podcast, she recounted how she’d posted an offer on social media, only to be met by stadium security.
