Put it to a vote, this year's round one or that pile of Lerner inspired dung.

Whatever they came up with you would not please everyone and I'm sure there's an element of support that would hate it even before they saw it

Lion is decent and is facing the correct way, the star looks crap, the font doesn't look right, neither does having a different colour for the letters and numbers. It could have been better, it could also have been worse.

yep. The badge is something that will never unite opinion. It's meh from me overall.

This is a joke, right? If this was Small Heath we'd all be pissing ourselves laughing. Where do you start.. the lion looks even less scary than Alex Moreno at Bodymoor Heath on Halloween. Seriously, I don't believe that's going to be the real one. It's ridiculous.

It would be more one-sided than the 2002 Iraqi presidential referendum.

So similar to the previous one which was pretty insipid

Sorry Hookey but that's bollocks. If you go out for dinner, they bring your plate to the table and it looks like shit, smells like shit and unsurprisingly tastes like shit do you say the same?

Isn't that pretty much the one that didn't win when the round badge did?

So has the internet/Twitter conned everyone or have they shown you something then gone in another direction I wonder?

The problem is we pretty much had already seen it. It’s pretty much back to the badge we had before the first consultation. I can’t believe we end up with a yellow lion on a blue background again.
Put claret on blue, put gold on claret - those are strong looks. This is limp.

This is on the trademark site dated December 2023 so it looks like it’s actually it, but I am clinging to Dave’s memory saying something different.
