Rugby club ditches their new strip club sponsors after fans complained on Facebook
A RUGBY club kicked their new strip-joint sponsors into touch after it was blasted by fans.
Bosses were given a dressing down when an advertising banner showing a woman in a bra was shared on their Facebook page.
Worthing, in West Sussex, announced they were welcoming Platinum Lace Brighton into their “family”.
Fan Eric Mitchell responded: “Absolutely ridiculous. This would put me off sending anyone interested in playing rugby to you.”
And Abi Bence added: “This is unreal. My five-year-old girl will have to look at this.”

The club axed the deal within 24 hours.
