ONE OF SOUTH Korea’s top football clubs has apologised for causing “deep concern” after being accused of using sex dolls to fill empty seats at a weekend game.
FC Seoul insisted that they had ordered “premium mannequins” — used in the absence of fans as they are banned because of the coronavirus — which have “no connection to sex toys”.
However, fans watching the match on television spotted that some of the artificial spectators, deployed for Sunday’s game against Gwangju FC, wore t-shirts with the logo of SoloS, a sex toy seller, as well as some x-rated websites.
This despite the fact that pornography is illegal in South Korea.
The K-League is one of the few leagues being played at the moment, having kicked off the season on 8 May.
FC Seoul won the game 1-0 thanks to a second-half goal from Chan-Hee Han.
Whoops!

United have gone for high profile,statistically strong players that just don’t fit the club.Saw Josh King linked today,not a massive name but could certainly do well and given he came through their academy and has PL experience could be a good fit.
@Nic Antonio: came they the United youth set up when ole was there too
I like Neville but he is talking some amount of arse recently…
@The Irish Pain: He’s speaking nothing but sense..? Where’s your confusion?
Don’t think they need a lot in midfield or up front. 2 decent defenders would be great. But it’s very difficult to sign in January. Nice to look forward to games now.
@irishoverseas: even one strong defender would do. Think keep the players for the remainder of the season, blood some of the younger midfield/forward players this year and then let who ever comes in as manager in the summer the basis of a strong squad to at least start the rebuilding process.
