HKP90 Posted December 20, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 20, 2023 20 minutes ago, ThunderPower_14 said: I think this has really been missed in this release, the colours, which will have far more bearing on our identity than a one-off 150th logo element. I've been on this forum for 20 years and in that time every time a new shirt or badge is released, people complain the claret "isn't claret" and is too purple. At the same time you've got people here and social media complaining that he doesn't listen to the fans. He's listening. I guess if you put a gun to my head and said 'say something nice about it', yeah the colours are good. That said, there is a massive wang on our logo!!!!!!

Has he? 23 minutes ago, Risso said: And it's shite, really, really shite. This is opinion. I think it would be completely shit as a club badge. I'm not sure how I feel about it being part of a rebrand. There's elements of it that I like. 24 minutes ago, Risso said: the rubbish way he's gone about it aren't exactly the mark of the marketing genius he's supposed to be. No argument here.

"We'll even launch, erm, our 150, err, anniversary mark and logo, erm, on this video." Shite logo duly appears at the end of the video. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulie Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Only thing to take from the commemorative 150 year marque is the colour palette… this will match the new branding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a massive argument with a bloke when I first started work, he reckoned, there was more vitamin C in apples than oranges a simple argument that would be sorted in 20 seconds nowadays took two weeks and a visit to the library and the hiring of a book to conclude. As you say Mate, most definitely the days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
