It would be great if we could return to the old badge and while we are at it move back to Maine Road and if at all possible get rid of all the players we have now and get some of the old shit back so we can watch us get beat by Oldham and Sheff Utd.

You mean change it to a dow?In relation to people citing the Eagle on our badge as a nod to our owner?
Maybe someone can confirm, but I was under the assumption the sea and sailing ships were much more aligned to Abu Dhabi and this would fit perfectly with our old badge?

Would be just typical if we got rid of the 3 stars that symbolised three decades of not winning anything ,when hopefully they could symbolise winning the league 3 times !!

It's the Manchester Eagle granted to the city at some point after the war by the Royal Family that United wore on their 1958 FA Cup final kit.I thought the badge had a Phoenix on it not an eagle....a Phoenix in Greek mythology was cyclically regenerated or reborn which could have been the thinking behind it when we changed under Kappa.

Not an eagle or a falcon. As far as I can tell its got the wings of a sparrow and the nether regions of a crow.............
Even more reason why it may be scrapped, as Mansour probably know's a little bit more about birds than I do (yes he's married to 5 :/ )

According to http://www.manchester.gov.uk/info/4...anchester_city_council_crest_in_to_the_future
Golden Eagle on a Crown. The Eagle was included to represent the importance of the Aero Industry
