At least the image on the new badge now looks like the actual lock-up:

Don't know what the other one looked like, more like some helter-skelter at a fair.<br /><br />-- Mon May 27, 2013 6:37 pm --<br /><br />

Is that the reason for their awful away kit a few years back?

Probably.
 
No doubt the trend of logo simplification motivated this change, and that is not a problem in and of itself. Chelsea, Villa, Arsenal and other clubs have all streamlined their crests in the last decade-plus and achieved great aesthetic improvement. I'm personally in the camp that thinks the City badge needs an update to strip away some of the more superfluous elements (the stars!).

So the idea behind Everton's new badge is sound. The problem is that the new badge is dogshit, and the tower looks like it was stolen from Microsoft Word ClipArt.
 
Everton fans weird



A FURIOUS protest over badges suggests Everton fans may not be normal.
The club has unveiled a new shirt badge which experts say is 6.4% different to the old badge.

But supporters insisted the new badge was ‘odd’, ‘clownish’ and a ‘betrayal of the club’s heritage’ leading to suggestions that they may be the sort of people who receive daily instructions from their goldfish.

Julian Cook, a badge dispute analyst, said: “To describe the new badge as ‘odd’ seems… odd.

“There’s also significant levels of fury at the absence of the club’s Latin motto, which translates as ‘nothing but the best is good enough’. Given Everton’s recent history, this would seem to be both untrue and redundant.

“Perhaps they could replace it with ‘David Moyes is a total fucknut’. In Latin.”

Cook added: “Both badges feature the same ugly little tower, both feature the club’s founding date and both are the same basic shape. But such is the level of anger that I sense this is not actually about the badge.

“Gary Lineker needs to tell someone to have a word with them.”

It's ridiculous. Looks shit compared to the previous one and they even removed the latin motto..Why would they change the badge I have no idea, but this one is awful.

I checked and there's a few official lines, the old badge was difficult to resize and animate plus was often used wrong and they are rebranding to be modern or something. I think some people think it's because it's cheaper for Nike to get on the kit, but I don't know if that's true.
I read that one thing that companies look for in a logo nowadays (probably during the whole Olympic logo debate) is something that's pretty simple and can be printed in any colour and still be easily recognised. That would definitely apply to Liverpool and Spurs' new simplified logos.

I guess the Everton badge is a bit simpler, but it doesn't exactly stand out. It's dark blue on a royal blue background, for one.
