Herman Hessian Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 fleetwood town - this is just terrible; why is the bottom part of the anchor shown in faux 3d and the rest not; why is the faux 3d shading not consistent; the flukes should be on a plane at right angles to the horizontal stock, not parallel to them (an anchor made like this would just drag along the bottom of the sea, flat, with nothing to "kick it" as it's dragged along until the flukes snag something); the letters are in a crap typeface and not evenly positioned; the white letters have black keyline, and the black ones don't have a corresponding white one; and the rope's not even a proper three-strand twist - and where are the ends !- absolute crap from top to bottom, is this - shameful effort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I suppose the Warriors could claim its unique but to be honest, it's a bit dull. Historically accurate (by at least 34 years) I suppose but if they'd offered me a couple of pints I could have come up with a half decent effort.

Latino Lover Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Almost all the argentine league badges are fairly plain initials in shields. Bit like rangers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stenny badge must have been designed at the same place as the BSC one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Hessian Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 shrewsbury town's clipart lion badge this is not in its own right particularly shite, but it does rank amongst my own finest moments (of which there have been very, very few); when STFC introduced this badge back in 2007 I immediately recognised it as having been based on a bit of freely available clipart, whereas the club claimed that it had been specially commissioned from a "respected, professional designer"; it was, of course, my duty to immediately go on their forum and take the piss out of them about it; this spawned a petition to the club, a dedicated protest website, an eventual change to another badge and - as of october last year - the original thread clicked over to its tenth year ! the original thread: (shame that a lot of the pics have disappeared, but still a good read) - http://blueandamber.proboards.com/thread/79559 further goings on: http://blueandamber.proboards.com/thread/83678/crystal-palace-unveil-new-badge the protest website: https://bringbacktheloggerheads.co.uk/ When Saturday Comes: http://www.wsc.co.uk/wsc-daily/1034-May-2012/8620-shrewsbury-fans-campaign-against-qclippyq-the-badge I believe that their fluffy lion matchday mascot, officially called Lennie, is still referred to as Clippy by all and sundry....

It has the same expression as the UKIP lion. Someone best summed it up as a lion watching his house burn down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Quite like the Kilmarnock one, just because squirrels are such a naff thing to have on a badge. Don't like the current Villa badge much. It doesn't say "Aston Villa" and the Lion Rampant looks fat. Bring back the round one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
