It's utterly stupid, and highlights the state of British sports such as this 'behind the curtain'.

They won't pay their athletes enough to make ends meet but, at the same time, want absolute say in what they do and don't do in order to make up the shortfall.

Canoeing, though. It’s more a hobby than a sport. If it didn’t exist as an Olympic sport would anyone be bothered?

It's that annoying chicken-and-egg situation, or so it feels.

They don't get significant funding because they don't bring home medals, but they probably don't bring home medals because they're having to spend a good chunk of their time titillating housewives in order to make ends meet.

Yep, no one would be bothered if it didn't exist as an Olympic sport, because there wouldn't be a choice between Olympic funding/competition and only fans... Because it wouldn't exist as an Olympic sport.

But it does, so people do.

I tried that, but "Hairy middle-aged man in his unterpants reading stuff on the internet" is apparently a very niche fetish.

Reminds me a of true story

I was waiting at a well know Sussex airport for my sister in law to arrive on a flight from Canada. While waiting the UK Canoe team arrived arrived back from a completion and a bloke walked through arrivals carrying his kayak.

Someone shouted out 'oh mate, is that a canoe or are you just pleased to be here?"

The media are only running the story because of the OnlyFans angle. Aside from the canoeist himself, the story is of no consequence.

He's a world silver medallist as a junior it just feels like prudishness on the part of the BOC and is frankly ridiculous.

It’s all legal is it? In that case the IOC have been right old turnips over it. A complete over reaction.

Is it the IOC, or is it just ‘Paddle UK’.
