Crest Review

The shield one looks similar to this one I did back in September:



Finally, about 'crest' - this is from "https://www.internationalheraldry.com/" :-

"A crest is a component of an heraldic display, so called because it stands on top of a helmet rather like the crest on a bird's head.
…
Some armigers used their crest as a personal badge, leading to the erroneous use of the word "crest" to describe a shield or full coat of arms. "

I selected the round one, but the gas lamp one is surprisingly better than I expected. If nothing else it's unique.

The lion facing to the right will take some getting used to but apparently on the very first club badge it was facing that way.

I would have got rid of the star & the 1874 needs to be bigger.

While I have breath in my body nobody's touching that star, so help me God.

I’d have just gone back to the round badge of old. Nothing wrong with it and it oozes class which is why I’ve gone for the round one this time. God knows what the other one is but I pray it doesn’t end up on a claret and blue shirt.

If we 'must' have the star, at least position it where we could drop another one next to it one day!

This is what we should have when we're next in European competition.

Except that we now can't, because we've chosen to shoehorn one in to the crest full time.

Unless people think we should do both, and have two stars to mark one trophy win?  That won't be small time at all will it? 

Going to be funny as fuck when it happens. People will be wondering why we can't have one above the crest because they demanded one NOW.

I'll be manning the barricades with you against those who wish to cancel our glorious history, as well as providing the shuriken.

They both looks shite, the reason the lion is the wrong way round is because Jools, Gemma and Josh in the design team had to do something to justify their money, the star is smalltime and the round one will win because we've had years of being told how great it is, just like that abomination of a Luke shirt when it first came out.

Nothing to add. 100% this.

Same

This.

You finally really did it. You maniacs!

My view on the new badge.

[amfy]

I think that it would have been better to have shown us the badges a few days before voting started.
I am seeing a few people on Twitter who went straight for the round badge but are now finding that the shield has grown on them and think they made the wrong choice.

[Bad English]

Brexiters probably.

[Smirker]

The shield is really, really shit. The round badge is less shit.

[Smirker]

Not that it matters but I showed two friends the round badge and they both said it looks great.

One is a scouse Liverpool fan. One is an Arsenal fan.

Scouser even said to keep the star on it. I disagreed.

But both said it looks way better than what we currently have.

I fit in with the demographic view, 'gas lamp' all day for me. I'm bored with circles.
