Does our Badge need a make over ?

[city stew]

Changing the badge now is not possible we're trying to make our "brand" global so until were on the scake of dare I say it the scum the badge will stay the same.

Fun Fact, that first badge was actually the "new modern rebranding" which didnt really catch on so they went back to that second one, which looks more like the original, only slightly modified.

Personally I think any badge should contain the full name of the club rather than an abbreviation (Mcfc)

I wonder what one of the reasons our owner chose us was?
Oh yes - the eagle. Convert it to the Abu Dhabi Falcon by all means but it stays.

 

[Manchester33]

I think the stars are there to symbolise the 3 lights that still work on the Hilton.

because man city was the right club to buy. we have a history, big stadium, loyal fans etc .

Yes, I hear it was a close race between us and Pescara because the dolphin on their badge amused our owner.

 

[The Pink Panther]

I'd get rid of the 3 stars. Apart from that it's OK. However, I'd like some reference to Manchester.

The eagle and the three stripes are a reference to Manchester

I must say that when our current badge was first released I thought it was shite, and now years later, I still think it's shite
