University Of Kent Not Happy That Its Soccer Team Decided To Take It To The Hub

If you're Coolio and you want to "take it to the hub," that's perfectly fine. If you're a college sports team, however, there might be an issue, and an issue is exactly what the University of Kent football team--or soccer team for us Americans--has on its hands. 

According to The Tab (link below), the Rutherford Raiders released a completely fake picture which jokingly placed the "PornHub" logo on their uniforms last week. University officials were not amused, and their stance quickly turned to outraged when the site stepped up and offered an actual sponsorship. 

The uni’s full statement said: “The University’s Kent Sport department would never sanction sponsorship of this type – it is totally inappropriate.

“The team has been spoken with and will not be allowed to wear the shirts in question at any time.

“We take this issue very seriously and Inter College Sport teams, which are the responsibility of Kent Sport, must present any potential sponsorship and/or logos for approval.”

The team, however, views this rebuffing of PornHub's offer as typical bureaucratic hypocrisy.

A player on the team told The Tab: “We are struggling to see why they are having a problem. The university cricket team are sponsored by kingfisher which is also a age restricted product. The university rugby team once had training shirts with ’80 minutes, 15 positions, no protection, wanna ruck?”

“In my opinion the decision is made by people in Kent sport that are out of touch with what’s socially acceptable.

“It’s hard for football teams to find a sponsor. Both Kent sport and Rutherford refused to give us any money.

“Clearly PornHub did because there’s was an opportunity to create a bit of attention. I personally haven’t come across anyone yet that has found it anything other than funny.”

Either way, they need to make this their official team anthem immediately...
