    It's shocking. Looks like some sort of national front logo.

    Just googled it.
    The old one did need replacing but I actually quite like this

    Different distinctive, not unlike ours.

    In that case I think they should keep it.
    :D

    If they want a picture of a bloke fondling his own nipple then so be it.

    On the bright side, some branding consultancy will have made a packet out of it

    Genius. That's what it is.

    Sales guy to designer
    "We've just go the contract to redesign the Leeds United badge"
    Designer:
    "Any brief?"
    Sales guy:
    "Doesn't matter we've made a fortune" patting his top pocket.
    Designer: Lightbulb moment, job done.

    Can we have crest with a boot kicking a backside entitled 'Sacking head coaches since 2012'?

    I think we should have a special one just for our head coaches to wear.

    Leeds have now "re-opened" consultation.

    I think the >50,000 name petition against the new design might have made them realise that they've been fleeced by a media/design agency and that the emperor's new badge isn't quite as good as they originally believed?

    You'd have to think the front man for it, the Managing Director, will be looking for a new job shortly. Complete disaster of a re-branding effort.

    I can never believe it when i see owners of football clubs try to fob rubbish like this off on the supporters. Surely they must be somewhat intelligent people and should know that followers of the game wont accept wholesale changes.

    I see they've modeled it on a man who is a hero to many of the Leeds neanderthal support:

    Thinking about badge changes would anyone make ours different ?

    Cannot really feel there is any need to!

    Stands out and very simple which seems to be the theme for these club creasts now..

    Agreed. The only change would be to make the hart's Antlers less moose-like but I guess that's what you get when you stylise things to make them simpler.


    The single biggest feck up our marketing department did was set-up a twitter account referring to it as a moose. A hasty explanation followed by a quiet withdrawal of the service in the end when they realised what a foll they had made of themselves.

    Yep, our badge is brill and I love it. Like you say it stands out, simple, unique design, bold colours. Even though we're a tinpot club we are instantly recognisable by our badge.
