While the badge has been brought up, what is the meaning of the boat? Of all the years I've supported the club I've never known what it represents.

Manchester grew into a major city out of the industrian revolution and the cotton trade the boat is a reference to the world wide trade in goods from that trade and commerce, also the 3rd (right) flag should always face opposite the left and middle flag, the bees on a globe represent the industrial and busy labour force and the shield is a reference to the first duchy of Manchester, but also now used to represent the rivers in more modern times

The 3 lines are symbolic of the three rivers in Manchester get rid of the red rose as keep the river lines. It's Manchester our city our heritage not Lancashire the county.

just to add the first official use of the coat of arm of Mcr was in the 1840's and I only point this out because someone earlier on said ditch the ship as the ship canal is a salford, stretford thing so let the rags have it, where in fact the ship canal hadn't been built when this design first came into being and the ship on the CoA is not one that would have been use on it anyhow(the canal), I really feel any new crest must have the ship and shield on it as that is the emblem of our city.

Thanks Gav. It was the text showing that I didn't think would show the image.
