Club Badge (merged)

That stitched badge won't be on the shirt. With Nike making the kit it will be on a patch, similar to the shield, and much crisper. More like the picture than hand stitched.

That bage the rose is off centre and the shield touches the 'E'; it's just a fan done one.

Proof - it's nothing like the Blue Peter badge apart from the fact the BP badge consists only of a ship & our super new badge has a ship as part of the whole package.

and..... we've had the ship on our badge for most of our history. yes there is a ship on the blue peter badge. apart from the colour, shape, size, shading being completely different you have a point.

that looks absolutely nothing like our ship

Again, it's not the fact there is a ship it's how it's presented.

On the current one it's flat, the other two are made to stand out hence the shading. As if they're actually sailing.

I haven't a problem with the symbols used. Personally I just think they could have been incorporated into a better design and presented better. Like the red rose on a two toned blue background doesn't go well imo.

Wow, the new badge looks like a Pirates of the Carribean poster... smh

Totally agree and so do the majority of people on here.

i think most fans on here like it now. it absolutely shits on the eagle badge aha, its a proper city badge.

You don't like a ship looking like its sailing? What else do ships do. If the rivers part wasn't two tone how would we notice the
rivers? Not taking the mick but don't get what your saying.

The two shades of blue, if one set of lines were blue but the other lines white say, it would add more distinction to both the rose and the rivers imo. Red on blue doesn't go imo and it's on an all blue background.

The current badge's ship is like a picture taken side on if you know what I mean whereas this one is made to look at an angle, like it's popping out. Like the shield. Just my opinion, it's no different to people voicing how perfect it is and the club nailed it. Not everyone was going to or has to like it.

I've clearly voiced my opinion, perhaps too much admittedly so I'll leave it there as on record that I'm not a big fan of it but I'm sure it will grow on me. Especially when I see it officially on a kit.

And your point would be?

The Manchester coat of arms:

From 1842: http://www.bbc.co.uk/manchester/con.../110209_manchester_coat_of_arms_feature.shtml and yes those sails are shaded.

Edit: Hmm, there's a link in there that insists on being invisible, no idea why.

Wasn't there a graphic designer on the Aston Villa forum? The one who told us that it was Mangala rather than Delph? We could contact him and end this debate.
