I’m ok with the badge being redesigned, and I have a soft spot for round badges - but that’s shite

This.

It looks like it’s been mocked up by someone in paint, because it has.

 

If (when in my opinion) the club change the badge, no one will know the designs until they do. I also think they’d try and do a better job than that.

They won’t have had enough time yet to do a design for next season, and kit leaks pretty much confirm this.

I doubt there's any legs in that post, and like everyone else under 40 the current badge is the only one I've known, so I'd far rather it wasn't changed (as I like it), but it's amazing the amount of clubs badges that have changed in recent years, so I wouldn't be too surprised if ours was altered in the not too distant future.

Nothing regarding badges will ever be as funny as that proposed Leeds badge from a few years back.

 

Haha I'd forgotten so googled, then saw a related design [emoji38]

The magpie in front of a castle isn't a redesign, though

 

Our current badge does not need changing. And certainly not to that sad little magpie in front of castle design.

If we are going for a redesign, this one is a good choice.

I'd be very happy with that. However the light blue can fuck clean off, absolutely hate how it's been adopted as our 3rd colour now.

For those who don't know, there's an AFL team called Collingwood;

 

(Named after the suburb in Melbourne which in turn, was named after our Lord Collingwood, plays in black and white, formed in 1892, and also called the magpies, mad eh?)

 

Their crests are pretty decent and wouldn't mind something similar.

I agree that no redesign is needed. That said, I love that sad little magpie. If the current design wasn’t traditional — based on something historical, I’d certainly prefer a badge along those lines than some spurious heraldic crest.
 

And that sad little magpie is preferable to rendering some kind of hyper-aggressive, power-magpie.

Yeah, that's pretty much where I am.  I don't think there's any clamour for a redesign - I've no issues with the current one.  I do like round club badges, but that doesn't mean we should change ours.

 

And I loathe those aggressive muscular magpie designs you see online or on shit t-shirts.  There's nowt intimidating about a magpie - nor does there need to be.  Hyper-aggressive animals on club crests makes me think of u-9s hockey teams more than professional football

 

Edit: I would like to see the club do some merchandise with the old badges though.  Retro tops etc.

Nunez is a very difficult deal to do for any club. His preference is to come to the premier league, but Benfica want a large sum of money. Ekitike has a good chance.

 

The first priorities for the club are GK, LB, CB and ST.

 

Paqueta is unlikely to happen, at least in this window. But wouldn’t 100% rule him out from coming in the future.

 

There’s going to be quite a few outgoings, around 10-14 players will probably leave the club.

 

Expecting a formal bid this week for Lodi.
