Our Badge

No fucking way. My ancestors were ruined by the Viking invasions.

The original “York away”

I propose we replace the sailing ship with this, in keeping with our modern identity.

Our badge is justified and no need to link slavery to trade. I'd imagine few people knew of slavery at that time, as they were too busy working as kids in the mills.

Ar$enil badge offends me. Promotes warfare and weaponry. Their nickname insults many.

Brentford highlighting the need to save bees, and work together industrially, shows class.

What the flip is a Liver bird anyway?!

Forest, known to have felled most of the trees of Nottingham and still boast about it.

Wolves have a wolf as a constant reminder that extinction means extinct.

It could be argued that West Ham show communist undertones in their badge.

Tottenham. Bland and forgettable badge. Their manager should criticise that too.

Look hard enough, and think long enough and everything is connected and there to be learned from. Or paint a dull picture and reword history to suit a narrative.

Just think how many slaves we could fit in that, it'll be a goldmine

Put some fish under it like Grimsby have

How about the Bristol badge

"The badge of Bristol Rovers reflects the club’s nickname of “The Pirates” and lends itself to the seedier side of Bristol’s wealth of maritime history. This history includes the incoming of cargo from around the world including, sugar and cocoa beans for the making of chocolate and sweets in the area, less sweet was the cargo of slaves. "

World's gone mad. Is sheff utd's badge going to be questioned because it has two swords on it? or are ships more offensive than swords?

Good idea..we are famous for chippys and chip muffins.

How about a chip muffin and a pint?

nah...the barm lot would start writing complaints the yonner barmy cunts

To take this view on slavery to an extreme when are they going to start on those people who enjoy a bit of BDSM. I mean if anything is a symbol of slavery then it's whips and chains, right?

Christ, can't we enjoy anything any more?
