The worst one by far is that West Ham 'London' one, just awful, I'd hate us to have something that cringemakingly shit.

My preference is for a round badge. Our current one is pretty shit. Whoever designed it clearly has no idea of even the basics of typography.

I note that the page on the OS where they announce the consultation has a pic from Rotterdam, round badge obviously on show.

Wonder if that is an attempt at subconscious marketing.

So very much like the Liverpool shirt, but with our full name?

I think we've sorted it folks, shall we go to the pub for the rest of the day?

Leaving aside feelings about the actual teams, of the this season's Premier League badges, I think the Spurs one is the best. It's nice and simple, but quite stylish and recognisable. I also like the simplicity of the Wolves one.




I don't like the "simplicity" of them at all. As someone else said, that looks like a polo shirt. I want it to say "ASTON VILLA" on it. We have the most beautiful name in football and should be showing it off.

Sheffield United is the best badge in the image you quoted.

The Spurs badge says "Tottenham Hotspur" on it. Simple design element, full name of the club, sorted.

The comments in the "What changes will be explored" section point towards that as well.

Yeah, fine for a polo shirt.

Not everyone has the electron microscope required to read it though.

At least they have listened.
I am sure I am not the only one who has complained about the Badge.

I've just checked that, fucking hell. Proper cringe shit that, as well as that crossed arms thing their fans do to the cameras when they've scored. Cringe fanbase in a shit stadium.

Someone on Twitter has posted this:





I don't like the 1874 and Football Club bits on there and I'd move (or remove) the star and give the lions some claws but it's going in the right direction.
