What on Earth were they thinking?
An Australian bookmakers have really landed themselves in it over a tweet about Manchester United striker James Wilson’s girlfriend.
Oddschecker tweeted a photo of the 20-year-old with his girlfriend at the club’s end-of-season event. They included a comment suggesting Wilson should start “abusing his privilege” as a footballer despite admitting “sure, she’s a lovely girl”.
Following the backlash, Oddschecker deleted the tweet and issued an apology for any offence caused.
Disgraceful that we need to remind people like @oddscheckerau over and over that #WomenareNOTapunchline @JennaPrice pic.twitter.com/CaCNMBQZv6
