IF they do change the cest it will only be the stars at th top. They have no meaning on the crest but it will probably be replaced by one star (which will be one of the cups we win)

Something along the lines of the top one would be great. I like the way 'Manchester City' is at the top and 'football club' at the bottom break it up. Though, like you say it'd need to remove the MCFC bit from the middle. If the club went along similar lines to this we'd have a badge to match the fantastic kit we've got.
Replace MCfC in the middle with 1894 to keep it nicely weighted and youre close.
As for the idea of dropping the red rose of lancs, well im afraid thats not my idea of celebrating heritage.
Manchester and City (and me) are proudly part of Lancashire and the lack of connection to lancs for many people is due to the administrative changes made in the 70's.
Thats why Lancs CC play play in lytham, preston, manchester and even liverpool.
A red rose would have to be on there somewhere for me.

Agree with all those comments mate, 1894 would be a great touch as well.

I agree with this ^^^
If we went back to the old badge it would look so out of date now and it wouldn't be long before we changed again! Anyway I honestly don't think we will go back to the old badge, our owners seem to have made a big deal out of this "Pride in Battle" thing so I can't see them just dropping it completely?

I can't say I care for the old badge at all I like something more like a coat of arms(I know we can't use the Manchester one).

I hope it does mean something and is not just an inanimate animal like some of the Rugby teams here in Oz...
South Sydney Rabbit-o's FFS
Manly Sea Eagles
Parramatta Eels you get the picture....
Haha Rabbitohs is the worst name I have ever heard for a sports team. Didnt know whether to laugh or cringe when I used to hear it when I was in Oz. But when they played the Roosters & they would say the Bunnies v the Chucks I just used to sob. Embarrassing.
The eagle was on the Manchester coat of arms. Think its on a ribbon around the knights neck .
