Also if I remember correctly this old badge was done by the club without consultation.  If that was the case, then those who wanted the new one done by professionals can clearly see that although it sometimes it works, in our case and others, when not controlled you get poor badges like our old one or the Leeds one, even our gas lamp one was poor. Thankfully the right one was picked.

I know we all take this piss out of this but honestly how on earth was it ever approved by anyone at all.

Indeed. Really glad I got the Green throwback shirt. 

Incidentally, I was watching the Holy Trinity podcast the other day, and he was wearing the old muller shirt, but it was yellow. And it didn't look like a Goalie top (I remember the old Bozzie rainbow jobs). Anyone know where that is from, and whether I could get one, cos it looked mint? 

It's a concept shirt mate drop me a pm I know someone that can get you one 😉

Just Googled the new crest again. It's solid compared to the last few iterations. Don't like the star as I find it small time/limiting.  Missed opportunity to do something really bold in terms of branding. But happy we will soon be done with the poorly designed current badge.

Not saying it shouldn't be there at all, it is a very logical choice for the font/wording.  We actually had a home shirt a few years ago (think it was one of the macron kits circa 2012ish) that had some gold piping.  It's just that I think making it (along with blue) the predominant colour of our badge was a poor decision, not only in terms of history but how it actually looked/looks.  

It was the Hummel one from 05/06 that definitely had gold piping. The Macron ones were destroyed by that awful Dafabet logo, likewise for the awful w88 one for Kappa.

Rumours online the clubs doing some kind pf presentation about the new badge on sundays game vs brighton

I wonder if, as it's the last game of the season and last with Cazoo, that the players will wear a special shirt with the new badge on.

Woah! That would be awesome! 

Yes! that would be fantastic, and a good way to settle the campers before the new kit launch next, which knowing us will be next February. 

 

I can't wait to see it in action. It's so much better.

I think they were possibly going to have something on seats for everyone with the new badge on but based on the Project B6 flags email stream it looks like it's been delayed until the first game of next season.

bit of a nothing account but first time Ive seen a third party use our badge. It pains me how much it looks like Chelsea’s badge irrespective of “who did it first”. It otherwise looks so uninspired. Just wish we went down the Forest/Spuds ‘logo only’ route and just had the lion.

Get rid of the star and it's perfect. Unique and modern instead of the copycat "retro" that went out of fashion ten years ago crest we got.

I hope not tbh. For me it would be nice and elegant for the current badge to earn the European spot on the final day and hand the club over, so to speak, in great nick, bowing out with arguably that badge's greatest achievement.

Then the new badge can 'take it from here'.

Just don’t see how you can prefer that to the one that we are going to have.  It’s all about taste I know.

But the issue is really just the badge bit, right? Which looks like it's from Placeit Logo Maker. Not sure about that typeface, but I like the blue lion just fine, even if "blue lion" has four-letter word in it.
