    Non-league club sponsored by Bonnie Blue forced to RETRACT kit and crowdfund for a new one over FA rule

    A NON-LEAGUE football club is looking for a new shirt sponsor after being forced to RETRACT the deal it had with Bonnie Blue.The controversial adult star Bonnie Blue had become the shirt sponsor for Calstock FC.Calstock FC were sponsored by OnlyFans star Bonnie BlueCredit: SWNSThe sponsorship was paid for by the controversial adult starCredit: InstagramThe Cornwall-based side shared a kit which featured a “BB” logo that was funded by the 25-year-old.The logo featured on a new blue away kit rather than the club’s established yellow and black home shirt.However, the club has now revealed that they are prohibited from wearing the kit due to the FA’s “interpretation of the regulations”.A statement read: “Due to the FA’s interpretation of the regulations, we are retracting the kit bearing the BB logo.READ MORE ON FOOTBALL”We did not do this to offend.”We, as an adult club and collective, categorically do not advocate or support the oppression of women.”The club was hit with criticism on social media but it appears that this has not factored into the decision.The shirt also featured the phrase, “Up The Bonnie Blue Bees” printed along the back of the shirt.Most read in FootballA GoFundMe page has also been set up to help the club replace the banned shirt.Blue, whose real name is Tia Emma Billinger, hails from Stapleford, Nottinghamshire.Bonnie Blue sparks outrage AGAIN with foul-mouthed ad that saw her paid five-figure sum by ‘family friendly’ tech giantThe shirt featured Blue’s logo on the frontCredit: AlamyIt also said ‘Up The Bonnie Blue Bees’ on the backCredit: AlamyShe rose to fame claiming to sleep with over 1,000 men in just 12 hours. The infamous OnlyFans model was recently banned from Nottingham Forest’s City Ground.She had tried to pull a viral stunt when she advertised an offer to “entertain” fans before the visit.Speaking on the Only Stans podcast: “I thought when they asked me to go to the side, ‘maybe they’re upgrading my tickets, maybe they want to escort me to my seat, this is quite nice, it’s a good service’.”They asked to see my tickets, I showed them and they took them off me, saying, ‘we’re escorting you off the premises’.”Apparently, they don’t discriminate against sex workers, but I was banned because I was a sex worker. Read More on The Sun”I was going to encourage them (the players), give them a good time.”I also think if I’m entertaining the supporters it’s less people drinking so I’m actually doing something good for their health.”Who is Bonnie Blue? Born in May 1999, Bonnie – whose real name is Tia Billinger – grew up in a small Derbyshire village, and attended the Friesland School in the village of Sandiacre.She has two half-siblings – a sister and a brother – who have always remained out of the public eye.She never knew her biological father, and considers stepfather Nicholas Elliott her dad.Bonnie also became something of a dance star in her local area, and competed in the British Street Dance Championships alongside her sister back in 2015.She also had a part-time job at Poundstretcher as a teenager.After school, she began working in recruitment.In October 2022, Bonnie married Oliver Davidson, who she had started dating when she was just 15.Once they were married, they moved to Australia, where Bonnie continued working in recruitment.However, it was in Australia that she decided to pursue a different line of work, and tried her luck as a ‘cam girl’ – crediting Oliver for giving her the confidence to enter the adult entertainment world.She quickly made a name for herself in the industry, and was soon making £5,000 a week.But while her work life was going from strength to strength, her relationship was crumbling, and she and Oliver split after almost a decade together.She moved over to OnlyFans following her cam girl success, and once again found fame on there.She quickly became a favourite on the site, especially thanks to her “niche” of sleeping with young male students – such as when she bedded 158 students during Nottingham Trent University’s freshers week in September 2024. Bonnie is now estimated to be worth £3 million, and makes around £600,000 a month on OnlyFans.Her family are also supportive of her work, with mum Sarah Billinger even claiming she’s her daughter’s PA, and helps clean up after Bonnie’s events – as well as handing out condoms to young clients. In January 2025, Bonnie claimed to have broken the world record for the most amount of sex in 12 hours, after apparently sleeping with 1,057 men from 1pm to 1am at a secret London event. More
