Keyblade Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 The claret lion is just daft. The blue one in the shield is okay, but come on, it had to be gold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have gone for something like Spurs or Forest, something a bit different. At least as an option 3. Shield and round are bland. Looking at it in that context, it's not the worst (ahem, West Ham), but far from the best. Lower mid table. Like the team it represents. Still a big improvement on the current one for me. I'd be open to Option 1 if is was a claret lion on a lighter blue background, but something about it makes me think of Scunthorpe or Trabzobspor for me, just doesn't feel right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayls Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 The fact of the matter is, both of the designs are better than the one we have now. The current one is weak as piss, and I now associate it with bad times and bad owners. I’d prefer NSWE to have their own mark, as I appreciate them a lot more than I did Lerner and Mr Emoji. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really didn’t need much tinkering with…. You can see on that image that even against the purple background, the yellow bleeds. The edges aren't crisp or sharp at all. Rounded/uneven yellow shapes just don't work in design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted November 4, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 4, 2022 Neither is particularly inspiring. The shield is more unique a shape but the design otherwise is spectacularly bland and cheap looking, with the name looking like an afterthought in a font far too small and clashing with the shape. It might look better colour swapped, but there's fundamental issues with it. The round one is... sigh. It's more immediately pleasing a design, but it's so obviously template stuff because so many teams have it. And it feels really old fashioned, in a bad way, because all of these types of badge have moved towards having white space on them, and this doesn't, making it look heavy and indistinct. And the star shouldn't be there. It looks wrong. I think we should acknowledge the European Cup win, with a star, but just plonking it next to the lion looks ridiculous. The round one will win but neither are good. Spectacular disappointment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I’ve just played around with the shield a bit and if you make the purple an ever so slightly lighter shade and a bit more claret-y plus the font a touch brighter it makes it loads better.

Stephen_Evans Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 15 minutes ago, Stevo985 said: Yeah option 1 is growing on me. I don't think it looks as good as the round one on the shirts, but lined up there it looks great. It's actually the writing I don't like about it looking at it there. I think having it straight when the top of the shield is pointed makes it look like it's just been dropped on there. Like it's not actually part of the badge Option 1 reminds me of the current badge in one sense. That is, it smacks of "elements" thrown together that don't work together. To me, the bottom point is too elongated. The name might well look better in parallel to the top. Option 2 frustrates me because it's nearly there. But the diameter ratios of the two circles are wrong. I'm also another one who finds the star a bit small time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongKongVillan Posted November 4, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 4, 2022 Is it me but look closely is like the lion having difficulty in juggling the star? I prefer option 2 but would happy with 1, looks different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right to be fair. Either one will probably end up growing on us as well. Will prob Aly get a better feel for them when we see them on different applications as well.
