New Old crest - next season or this season?


Recommended Posts

Was properly confused by that on Saturday. Got the lineups through the BBC app and Sasso wasn't in the team, and I knew he hadn't come on as a sub during the match, so I genuinely thought he'd gone full JT and stripped down to his playing kit for the celebrations.

It seems like good marketing strategy from the club really.

 

- Announce the new badge on a Sunday evening in January when not much is happening.

- Allow all the fannys a few days to overreact and have a small meltdown.

- Put the badge on all of the club's online media channels (OS, Twitter, YouTube etc.), along with using it on the screen at Hillsborough/away grounds.

- Many of those said fannys calm down, admit it has grown on them and it was a good badge all along.

- This trend continues until the summer, when everyone is so familiar with it that nobody will bat an eyelid as it is on the new shirt, and plastered around the stands at Hillsborough and in club shop etc.

 

There will always be some that remain vehemently opposed to change, but by doing what they have been the club should see the transition come into effect with a minimum amount of fuss.

The last sentence pretty much sums up how DC and the team have gone about things...the club will be unrecognisable in 2 years time

Yeah, well, the Revolutionary Guards can yack all they want. We all know the Hogwarts badge looks like something off a pensioner's walking stick. Probably underneath a badge about Redcar. Mr C should know better, because the minimalist owl is a thing of beauty. The resistance movement against these neo PC badgists will continue. :laugh:

That old retro outline owl can roger off.

It's a symbol of what people think of us!

A club who can't let go of the early 90s.

New owl new us!

Viva Oscar the owl with his seductive eyes!

That Owl looks a bit Gay

He'll owl you to the flipping floor!!
