Not too bothered about the prepared bit, but a return to the 70s 80s classic round , with added star would do me

I'd normally air the opinion that you're all being overly pessimistic and let's wait to see it, not now, it's going to be really embarrassing isn't it.

The almost regal 'prepared' replaced by some cheap marketing bollocks like, I dunno.

'Only 100 miles from Heathrow' or 'Not quite as shit as other Midlands clubs, yet'

Also reported that the new badge 'rebrand' has cost us £2m quid.

Almost makes you pine for Randys crayon effort.

I think it's estimated it will cost us £2m. That will include the cost of changing badges on mosaics etc around the ground and BH. Rather than we paid £2m just to someone to design a new badge. Seems a strange time to do it though, even though it was decided a while ago we've been so crap all season it must have crossed their minds. Although with Charlie and Fox behind it, i'm not overly surprised.

He paid £2 million for a tattoo?

Still better value than N'Zogbia, to be fair.

I'd imagine it's all part of the process of making the commercial side of things look good for buyers, can't help but think it's an awfully expensive way of dusting glitter on a turd.

Not on its own a major issue but, if we can't pull out and not spend the money, another straw the Camel is to bear.

They should bring this back, be appropriate as we win the trophy again next season.
