I don’t mind the one we’ve got tbh.

Hope not. Looks like a child drew it. On the back of a packet of Seabrook ready salted.

Cheap and old fashioned, not in a good way.

Being very clever with what they are doing with the kits this season. Will gauge fan opinions a lot

You could level that at the current hotchpotch of a badge we've got now.
Modern way is to have a simplified badge which the Ship version was.

He might just be alluding to the three badge approach for next year.

All I’ve even known is the new one but it feels very busy and old fashioned. Would be happy with either the old badge or a redesign but may be harder to win people over with that

Is any badge permanent?

There's a deep question for you all this Tuesday afternoon.

Nothing looks more cheap than the present one imo. Just a load of shite heraldry that many hoyed on badges in the 90s and the majority then got rid of.

We need something far simpler for branding purposes

Hopefully not. If they make a change they could simplify the current one for use on strips by just having the shield part and removing the lions etc that clutter it up. They can then still leave the full version of it in place throughout the stadium etc.

Across the leagues there will be few teams that haven't changed their badge in the last 20 years

I’ve said this for donkeys. Just leave the shield.
Are there any photoshop whiz kids that could knock that up on here?

 

[herra soul mob]

could we not wear a different badge each game ?

Not if they are only printed on and not embroidered. Then it depends how many times you wash it

Prefer they simplified the current badge. Think the old one looks incredibly dated and not that special to go backwards to. Current design is busy and very intricate, so simplifying it makes most sense imo. Or blend the two and have the main body of the current crest instead of just red and white stripes on the old one

Those who went to Roker Park will want the old badge...those who have only ever known the Sol, will want the present badge. Simple as that.

Isn't the 'modern way' just to have clubs keep more and more money like all of greedy modern football?

Like Tottenham now having a basketball on their badge. Leeds tried that awful wrestler thing.

y nt a modern blend of both then get creative

Then a brand new, simple one to keep all happy?
