  1. Also no star and no 1874 which fans voted for in the 2023 consultation. If you're having a claret badge on a claret shirt, may as well have a standalone lion and text. Some would say not enough blue.
  2. Looks like they are going for an embroidered badge this year rather than rubberised, would be virtually impossible to do that much detail with embroidery without it turning into brown mush. I prefer the detailed lion but honestly don't mind the "new" badge as shown.
  3. There have been plenty worse. The 90s stripy one for a start.
  4. The Adidas badge inside the "new" shape crest shield painted adjacent to the club motto, on a building the club owns, next to our ground not enough of a clue? Adidas deal was "leaked" to the press months ago.
  5. I don't think Andy Williams is on many under 30s playlists either.
  6. To the chorus of Rio "His name is Duran and he dances through defence/Just like Juan Pablo he is f***ing immense/And when he shoots, he really shows what he's about/Oh Duran, Duran, will score without a doubt" Crap I know but I needed to get it out of my head
  7. Welp...I never envisaged our new crest to replace the Lion with Adidas branding Also, there's no drop shadow in that mural.
  8. The first episode of the podcast "The Deadball Situation" is about this story - well worth a listen.
  9. I don't generally buy shirts, but I would definitely cop that!
  10. Somebody said they wanted the lion to face the right way and Heck decided this was the cheapest way to do it...
  11. Sell that to Comcast/Sky maybe if we get CL?
  12. Unai Emery's Fortress Villa Park. Sponsored by Adidas. And Comcast. And Orascom.
  13. Would Occam's Razor not suggest that he's just picked two players on form? He's picked Ollie before, and Ezri was in the squad previously. Southgate's a nob, but he's not blind.
  14. I don't know what clarky can means.
  15. Nah, they use knives now...much quieter.
  16. Ironic we replaced Purslow with "three people in the aggregate"
  17. Honestly, this is fine. Do this one. Is it my favourite amongst the fan mock-ups? No. Is it perfect? No. Does it match the badge on a T shirt that my wife bought me? Also no. There will never be one crest that will please everyone. Even the round badge from this season that some are clamouring to now keep has previously been dismissed on here and Twitter as "too similar to Chelsea" and "the lion is facing the wrong way". Personally I'd get rid of the star as it's a bit small time (obvs we are going to win CL next season, what do we do then? Another rebadge?) and change the colour of the 1874, other than that I think it walks the tightrope between heritage and modern relatively successfully. Claret badge on a claret shirt regardless of lion colour would look crap. Especially as it will be difficult to match the colours exactly between shirt and crest materials. Claret lion on blue with no other colours looks a bit dull and boring. If darker detail is used on the yellow lion, it will still be visible against the blue at smaller sizes. I'm not sure why this version hasn't been trademarked, other than we seem to have some reactive numpties at the club. Image below is 100 x 100 pixels and bottom image is 50 x 50 pixels. You can still even see the star at those dimensions for those that still want to see it.
  18. Maybe that "leak" on twitter was real then?
