Lingerie Football League ‘BANNED by the FA because they are not appropriate for their venues’

A lingerie football team claim that they have been banned by the Football Association .

Formed last month in Manchester, the Lingerie Football League UK were planning to play in a fundraising tournament at the FA’s national hub at St. George’s Park.

But they claim they were told they could not compete because the game’s leaders decided that the event was inappropriate for their venues.

As a result, the FA have stopped them from playing at St. George’s Park and any other FA-affiliated ground.

Gemma Hughes, the league’s founder, says that they received no official communication from the FA and they found out that their event was cancelled over Twitter.

Speaking to The Sun , she said: “When I received an email from Just Giving on January 21 saying that the FA had been in touch and wanted us to take the fundraising page down I realised the FA had cancelled our event.”

But the FA soon hit back and a spokesperson revealed that bosses were not comfortable with the idea of the event.

They said: “This is nothing more than a PR stunt which leaves us comfortable with our decision to not take this booking.

“We have grown the women’s game to this point without her venture, and frankly will continue to do so without her assistance.”

‘Pride and Prejudice and Zombies’ Gets Hot Topic Lingerie Collection

Hot Topic has partnered with Sony Pictures for a new lingerie collection based on the upcoming “Pride and Prejudice and Zombies” movie.

The seven-piece collection is a modern take on Regency-era fashion — with a zombie-slaying twist. Included in the line are a lace-up corset, ruffled lace babydoll, longline lace bra, lace trim cami, high-waisted ruffle panty, skirted panty with garter and lace-up sweetheart dress. The collection will be available starting Jan. 22 exclusively at Hot Topic in stores and online.

“Pride and Prejudice and Zombies” is the screen adaptation of the Seth Grahame-Smith novel that re-imagines the famous Jane Austen novel “Pride and Prejudice” — with zombies. The movie stars Lily James, Matt Smith, Douglas Booth and Bella Heathcote. The cast will be visiting Hot Topic’s Hollywood and Highland store in Los Angeles on Jan. 24 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. to help celebrate the launch of the film and fashion collection.

This is far from the first pop culture-inspired line of clothing that Hot Topic has released. The store also has collections based on by “Doctor Who,” “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and “The Avengers”, to name a few.

Check out a video showcasing the line below.
