Nice change of logo.

Coming on here and seeing the new badge kind of made you think about the exciting new era at the club with Pep at the helm. This one just makes me think of Blue Peter. The crescent moon thing doesn't really work either. If there was only one "o" I could see the idea stylistically, but with the crescent moon next to a normal "o" it just looks awkward and as others have said, looks like "Bluemocn".

Other than that, I love it ;-)

Would be interesting to know Ric's thoughts on it.
Why make the change?
Why do you like this design?

It was done more out of necessity than anything to be honest mate. The previous logo was done back in 2009 (I think) and incorporated the old badge. When the club launched the new badge this summer I just quickly updated it with the new one as a short term measure. People complained about that too, incidentally! Also, doing that (i.e. including the new badge) was always fraught with potential copyright issues as well, so I was conscious that I needed to change it to something different at some point. It's not like I had my heart set on this design or anything, it was just something I quickly knocked up when I had some free time. I'm not a graphic designer, as you can probably tell! If anyone comes up with something I like better then I wouldn't have any qualms about changing it.
