Banbury United FC has issued a public apology after video clips from an adult entertainment show held at the club’s venue spread across social media, prompting the team to review how the event was allowed to take place.
The show, billed as a “Wet & Wild” performance by a touring group called UK Pleasure Boys, was held at The Spencer Clubhouse on Saturday, October 17. It was a ticketed, 18-plus event.
Footage circulating online, first reported by the Daily Mail, showed male dancers in cowboy hats performing on stage before moving into the crowd, where some appeared to perform sex acts on attendees.
A source who spoke to the Daily Mail about similar events said such shows can get rowdy. “I’ve worked in hospitality for a long time. Whenever these events happen the women just go nuts – particularly the mums,” the source said. “I guess if it is your one night out in God knows how long, you are going to need to let off some steam.”
Banbury United FC responded with a formal statement addressing the footage.
“We are aware of video clips circulating online from the UK Pleasure Boys’ ‘Wet & Wild’ show held at The Spencer Clubhouse on Saturday, October 17. This was a ticketed, 18+ event,” the club said. “The images suggest that part of the performance towards the end went beyond what we find acceptable at our venue. We apologise to anyone in attendance who was offended. The venue was booked for that evening by an external promoter as part of a UK-wide tour.”
The club added that it is reviewing the incident and plans to change its policies going forward. “We are reviewing what happened and will revise our hire and conduct terms for performance events as a result,” the statement said.
