Club Badge (merged)

This would be better - and make the shield triple topped.. but thay're not going to change that now :(

Best we can hope for is a change of the writing to include FC.

Apologies for my poor photoshop skills btw! (only did it quickly)

It wouldn't surprise me if the leak was done on purpose to gauge reaction. Politicians do it all the time with policies.

Fair enough but as I said to SWP in an earlier post today (which he duly ignored as it didn't serve his narrative) I've had the opinion of three professional, mid-to-high level designers and artists and they all said it was poor design (none of them have any interest in City or sport in general, so they do not bring any personal bias or nostalgia). They mostly focused on the execution, rather than the elements, which I think is the reason many dislike it and refer to it as "cartoonish". It won't age well, I am convinced of that, as it already looks dated from the gate. Put beside other badges in world football it looks even worse.

I'll live with it but it is a missed opportunity in my book.

So what is this execution please? Surely these 3 mid to high level designers are only voicing their personal opinion. As we all are on here.
 
More I see it, more I like it. Would have preferred football club, and the badge within the inner circle. But small issues really.

General opinion from non-City is positive. Which doesnt happen often.

Self-explanatory. Should be a relief for all the 'Eagle' fans out there.
The mono badge registered in 1972 and version thereof must be of its time. The coloured version was effectively protected thereafter as anyone else attempting to use it would fall foul of the law of passing off.

As I understand it the 1972 badge wasn't registered as a trade mark but was simply copyrighted to MCFC. Copyright expired after 25 years in 1997 so the current badge was then produced but was registered as a trade mark allowing it to be renewed every 10 years.

It's

The rose has only been on one of our previous badges from 1972 to 1997 and it looked hideous then, in my humble opinion. Mind you I hate anything red, you obviously do not, as is your right.

(did you notice its the twat with cuntish views defending you bish'shair?)

Not, that's like saying someone can only critise if they can do better, so navas can cross the ball because no one that criticises him can cross better and a fan can't have a pop at yaya because they can't even decide to "turn it on", like he does,
If you get me?

But i was talking about the badge. Trying to get a design person to improve (to the unhappy) the leaked image.
