est1874 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 16 minutes ago, romavillan said: No, you can do a round badge though with modern typography and clean it up a bit so it works well across all the platforms it'll be used on. A simplified 82 badge done right would be the best looking thing in football, everyone knows we have the best colours and if they don't they can **** off coz they're wrong. I don't disagree. Just saying it's not going to be 'The 82 Badge', so the OP's point is moot. And to your point, as soon as they change any element at all (you've mentioned the typeface, for instance), some fans will be very vocal about not liking it. It's just how things are.

Tayls Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) So like Arsenals badge just with a lion instead of a cannon and an extra pointy bit on the top of the shield? Edited October 6, 2022 by Tayls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the "Gaslamp" is in reference to the era, and not the shape. It's probably just been lost in translation, so to speak. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burchy Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Would be interesting to know how much we’ve spent with the agency for them to come up with a round badge, shield and lamp design. I bet they’re rubbing their hands together thinking they’ve won the lottery. If there’s no real evolution to it what’s the actual F’ing point.

The work agencies do is massively under appreciated and comments like this are equivalent to “it’s just 22 grown men kicking a ball around how hard can it be” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t suggesting it is no different to Arsenals, was just merely making an observation to the shape of the crest and it being similar to Arsenals…but with a lion and a pointy bit.

I'd rather stick to our current badge than have a claret and blue Chelsea badge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
