Chansiri uses 'traditional' as reasoning to change our badge and kit. I think he has got the football bug now but he has to remember we have been here through thick and thin. We followed our wednesday. Him spending money is fantastic. However being a dictator and loosing our identity as our wednesday, will end up in even the happy clappers turning on him in the end. Premier yes but not as a different club 'Chansiri FC' The thing is it's all illogical so we aren't going to agree. Pining for stripes is illogical because it's only a shirt. Wanting a centre forward to not be number 6 is peculiar - it's only a number. Wanting to play at Hillsborough alone is a bit odd - it's only a pitch. Wanting blue and white to be our colours is just a surface thing - like I said it's only a kit. What's it matter what we're called? Wednesday? It's just a day of the week - change it to Thursday if that's his lucky day. What's in a name anyway? Supporting Wednesday for all these years if it's all about "entertainment" and the Premier League has been hugely illogical with Championships since I started following Wednesday going to lots of clubs within a short journey of Sheffield - Man Utd, Leeds, Man City, Derby, Forest and then Arsenal when I was down south. We each just have a different level of illogicality. Enjoy your football tomorrow - win or lose. Edited August 6, 2016 by rickygoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does he have to make a statement by changing the badge and the kit (both for the worse in my view)? His legacy should be based on successes - not aesthetics. This is what bothers me most - it's so unnecessary in the first place. To be honest, i'd do the same. Maybe not the same in terms of changes that have happened, but anyone can change the structure of a business and no one will ever know, outside looking in. There are several ways a man can affect change, and cosmetic is the most obvious. Structure, stability and weeding out the processes that don't work - such as catering are all well and good, and are very good long term, but no fan will ever look back on these things and say "well done" or even remember it happened. The man who builds a brand, gets that brand into the top flight and keeps it in the top flight? That's a total other matter. To me and you, Wednesday are a way of life, to Chansiri, it's a business model. I don't begrudge him that, and if he says he has bought into the Wednesday family, I am almost inclined to believe him, but business is business, even if your son is pulling at you saying "Buy Ross McCormack, you know you can afford it, please daddy please" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey_wells Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Badge on stadium looks a bit crap, to be honest. Needs to be bigger and not have all the horrible white box round it, just a nice white outline to set it off against the blue background. Wonder whether they've just not been able to get it printed large enough in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only positive I can take from the negativity I see on here is that it's probably saving wives being beaten and dogs being kicked. And while you're here rickypoo, the comparison to Bates was laughable.. You should do a bit more research before you make that particular link.
