Manchester grew into a major city out of the industrian revolution and the cotton trade the boat is a reference to the world wide trade in goods from that trade and commerce, also the 3rd (right) flag should always face opposite the left and middle flag, the bees on a globe represent the industrial and busy labour force and the shield is a reference to the first duchy of Manchester, but also now used to represent the rivers in more modern times

Often wondered about the significance of the 3rd flag facing the opposite direction. Is there any historical/trade reason for this that you know of?

I don't honestly know to be fair always though it was the rear flag pointing to home, maybe Gary James can answer the question at one of these badge get togethers
 
[Q"the originalkippaxman, post: 8931643, member: 50944"]well that is definitely a no then the fact it's fucking red is bad enough. Though to be fair it is the only red us Lancastrians do admire.[/QUOTE]
I think a pink rose would look good on your shirt.

Only a quick attempt, it would obviously need tweaking by a pro. I tried to modernise the old one. Keeping it clean and simple, partly inspired by Club Brugge badge. Which I have always admired.
I'm not a fan of the ship, if Manchester wants to shout about the ship canal, then united can carry on doing it on their shit badge.
I like the 3 river idea, I always have. It can be represented in such a simple way, with 3 stripes.
The two stars added are for the Premier League titles we have won. The badge should be modern and represent the club right now, stars should be added for every Premier Title we win. Up to 5 stars in total. Then it could like a very dominant badge.
Never really understood the eagle - Didn't think it was necessary
I do like the idea of the bee, but I'd hate it if we began to be known as the 'bees' - Its too 'rugby'
Anyway, It's only a quick idea, with work, I'd like something clean and simple like this

What the actual fuck are you serious?
Surely you can't be.

To disregard our first league titles would be criminally disrespectful!
I am genuinely shocked at your idea. Should we change our foundation year to 1992 too while we are at it

Youcould also add the ship canal comment shows a complete pack of knowledge on the city's coat of arms,.
 
Done, told them to look at this thread for some great ideas produced by city fans. Told them to keep it simple but effective. No cheesy sayings like fight til the end and keep any hashtag as far away from the badge as possible.
Round
Shield
Bee
Ship
River

Maroon

I think that was everything...
