Queen's Park (Spider Scum) wouldn't have counted for mostvof their history, as they were amateur. 

Only went professional a few years ago.

First ‘big’ club. Forest, Stoke and Notts County all older league clubs.
… and Sheffield Wednesday

Bit of a strange claim to be making then.  Wasn't Sheffield added to Wednesday a considerable time after?

Yeah, they were just 'The Wednesday Football Club' until the 1930-ish

Saw this on Twitter. He’s not claiming it’s ITK, it’s ones he’s designed ( and missing the star in any case ). But something like this would be ok I think ?

I like that, but did the reports from the latest meeting not imply the lion was staying yellow?

It did. Sounded like they've basically kept the Lerner badge and lied about the consultation results to make sure they get it.

I didn't mean the exact badge, but a shield, with a yellow lion looking left and a star? It's pretty much the same thing, surely?

Not necessarily.

The way a brief is set out could be given to 20 designers & you would get something different from each one...

Don't get me wrong, I don't hold out much hope going on that 76ers logo they ended up with under him, & they absolutely lied about the consultation process, but I think its important that we wait & see what it looks like before making any comments specifically on the design aspects.

And checked in with Paul, of course...

Claret and blue complement each other brilliantly. There's no reason for a yellow lion. Or any yellow at all, really.
