This, but with the St Marks crosses.

Pray to God Nike and Kitbag have nothing to do with this. This were behind Everton's abomination of a badge to seasons ago (the cartoon looking one). I imagine nike will want the badge to be as 'simple' as possible to save costs (like they do by printing out badge on to their standard shield design) http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images...5/27/1369673443627/Evertons-new-crest-008.jpg

I'm pretty sure Nike had nothing to do with that mate. Kitbag designed Everton's kit and they licensed the use of the swoosh and Nike branding.

@Shaelumstash Gav is on to something but he's over thinking it. Those small details he's including will never fly. whoever did the NYCFC crest should be given the job. I loved it. I cant see us going with the rose again. no red in the badge for me. And the 3 rivers diagonally doesnt sit well on the eye. Its gonna be tough to incorporate the elements required but i trust the club to get something great this time.

I love the main elements of Gav's design, but I agree with you, the tiny latin writing and text in the background is just not needed and looks fussy. The core design though is exactly what I'd want to see - roundel, full club name, Manchester Coat of arms in the middle. It's simple, as most iconic brands are.

I'd be really interested to see your interpretation if you are a professional designer?

The guy who did the NYCFC one is called Rafael Esquer. People have approached him on Twitter and he said he's not been approached by the club yet, but he knows all about Manchester City, he loves us and he'd fly to Manchester tomorrow to be involved. He also commented on Gav's main design and said he thinks the three stripes and the Maltese cross should be included. I hope they do get him involved because I think NYCFC's badge is absolutely superb and if he could design something similarly as iconic for us I'm sure we'd all be delighted.

Rafael Esquer (NYCFC badge designer) has said he's not been approached by the club yet, but he knows all about Manchester City, he loves us and he'd fly to Manchester tomorrow to be involved.

He also commented on Gav's design above and said he thinks the three stripes and the Maltese cross should be included, but suggests he could improve the design even further. I hope they do get him involved because I think NYCFC's badge is absolutely superb and if he could design something similarly as iconic for us I'm sure we'd all be delighted.

Everton fans started a petition against one of their shirt/badge designs. 20,000 signed it and the club listened & backed down. Fair play to Everton fans.
