If that's the final design then I don't mind it. The absence of FC doesn't bother me, but given the choice I'd rather have the three rivers on the shield than the red rose. I like the inclusion of the date.

If it is that design, the three rivers are still there

Picky :-P

But a little "fussy".

I get what the boat etc symbolise, but is it really relevant to the modern day?
We're not the "shippers" or "rivers" or "rose's" or eagles! Not sure working in a hammer and sickle or a few commy stars would go down though...

The more I see it the less I like it.

Lekos

Is that the confirmed one then?

gavin

Yes, they showed it at the game. Looks great. Well done City.

Brilliant badge, massive improvement

lee

im sure it will have different colour styles on away shirts/chumps league..looks good like this


Ludo

Black white doesn't make it any better.

i think a lot of people love it and a lot of people hate it.. im delighted to see the back of that shit eagle and stars and back to a badge that actually means something to us who have supported city for 40 years+

I'm in my 50's and have seen quite a few incarnations of our badge but the designers of this one have missed a trick or two.

I'm all for a round badge like older versions but this just tries to put too much in an oddly shaped logo. Do we really need a ship, the stripes, the rose, the date, the shield that sits strangely outside the circle of the badge? It's obliviously been constructed by a team that's thought "some people want a ship, some want a rose, some like the shield, some want the rivers, some want a retro roundel. I know, let's just throw everything at it and make it look like cartoon"

What's wrong with throwing a few designs on the official site and getting fans to vote?

The shield not fitting inside the circle properly is doing me tits in!

Ludo

Couldn'tve put it better myself

Now I do like that, making me feel better about the design already.

gavin

It's the badge that I grew up with modernised. The more I see of it the more I reckon they did a great job. I can understand a few gripes but dunno how anyone can hate it.

nimrod

Never thought Id see the return on the round badge, I thought we were stuck with the Eagle and stars forever

and yet people still moan  ::)

Thank you City
