Nowt against the current crest but it does need a revamp. It’s very much of it’s time (late 80s when football clubs got a serious hard-on for shields), and it’s a lot more intricate than most of those that remain for that period. They just need to modernise the 70s magpie crest. Of the ones we’ve had it conforms most closely to modern design sensibilities, and it’s fucking mint.

I think the magpie one is definitely the closest to the prevailing style in the modern game. A modern version of that could be really good.

I can see us going back to one of the old circular badges. It’s maybe no coincidence both the old crests have appeared on our shirts last season

Lovely stuff. Those XI v XIs in training should be canny competitive at the moment.

(EVER!)

Next Sunlun badge will definitely have 'FTM' on it somewhere, marra.

Wouldn’t sell Hall or Tino either

Is it right you have to squeeze SMB in somewhere 🤔

I see Isak has come 3rd in the Football Writers awards, behind Salah and Van Dijk. Can't argue with that.

We were waved off from Bilbao by Bilbao fans in far greater numbers and with greater enthusiasm than that.

Won't somebody think of the 1000s of lads who have the current crest tattooed on various parts of their body???

I think the co-efficient thing spoils a lot of European competition. And only serves to make the strongest teams stronger. And richer.

Some concepts that people have made over the years:

Even though I love our current crest I'm not massively fussed about this If our current crest was in place since day 1 then I think it would be unanimous in being against it Also I guess it seemed inevitable this was coming so no real shock factor to it It is a divisive subject so I am surprised they didn't wait until the season was done

Not okay with this. Fine the way it is. Based on the city's emblem.

Looks like a magpie trying to play GTA

It'll end up something like this, probably.

Nope

Is he called 'Sid'?

Worrabout that guy punching a seahorse instead of a policehorse?

From that Twitter thread. If we did go for a refresh of the current badge, making it easier to reproduce but still 'simplified' in places, I think what Ash Willerton came up with is cracking.... But I certainly wouldn't be against a Man City style rebrand, and something very similar to the late 70s badge.... Keep it colour for the home kit, but I think that would still work in Monotones too, for the change kits. Maybe just have 'NEWCASTLE UNITED' and drop the football club bit. Maybe add the formation date instead?

If its a PSR deal then we take Ramsey and they take Vlachodimos. That's the rule.

Petition for 100 seahorses on the badge and new nickname is the horsies

Looks like he's back training with group:

Yeah. As long as they get players in, I guess it's not too much of a problem. I do get the impression there's very specific players Howe wants for the first team in particular. Think we'll definitely be after Guehi and Trafford again for sure, after the interest we showed last summer. Maybe also DCL and Elanga as we tried for both as part of the PSR sales we made.
