Declan Rice video ordered to be taken down
The prank video was ordered to be removed by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) after a complaint was received that the humorous video was essentially an advert which contained a young player under the age of 25.
The betting firm denied the complaint and claimed it was not an advert but the Advertising authority disagreed saying the bookmaker logo and the message to bet responsibly which clearly included within the video.
Advertising rules say marketing communications for gambling must not include a child or a young person (for the purposes of these rules, children are people of 15 and under and young persons are people of 16 or 17). No one who is, or seems to be, under 25 years old may be featured gambling or playing a significant role with the advert.
