Better that the beswick buzzard, not as good as the 70s-90s badge.
- The 18 -------------- 94 bugs me.
- The curved text of MANCHESTER at the top half followed by the straight text of CITY at the bottom half of the badge bugs me.
Free your mind. To hell with imaginary rules.

Typical City...get grief for too many stars then get rid once we've earned them. ;)
I like the current badge, never bonded with the eagle.
Is it perfect? We likely all have something to tweak. Never liked the straight CITY but it'd maybe look wrong being curved as it's so small and would need to be CITY F. C. but it's good enough for me, fans & public identify with it, it's my mobile screen background...job done.

How have we earned them.
A star normally represents having won 10 league title or the european cup depending on the country.
Also used for world cups.
The stars the bog roll bandit added were an embarrasment to us and helpful for ridicule from the rags

I like it. It’s close enough to the original for me. I thought the eagle was ridiculous, In all my years living in Manchester I’ve never seen one of those perched anywhere looking for prey...

Yes like it a lot. Better than the eagle one who wasn’t bad. Even got it tattooed.
