Paddy Power’s latest viral commercial ‘Goal Line Technology’ has fallen foul of broadcaster YouTube and has landed an over 18’s restriction much to the bemusement of the bookmaker and it’s fans.

Paddy Power’s viral tackles the ever topical issue of goal-line technology, as well as the tendency of modern day footballers to stray offside when off the pitch almost as much as when on it, making a logical connection between the two that Hawk-eye could only dream of.

A spokesperson for Paddy Power told Bettingpro

“Despite having a six figure view count and an overwhelmingly positive reaction by viewers, the fun police have decided to slap an over 18’s restriction on our latest viral. This is political correctness gone bonkers and it seems that our censorship friends could do with some common sense technology!”
