Crystal Palace new badge.

by Platypuss » 05 Aug 2011 07:59

Palace fans are gettignt he chance to vote on their new club badge. Co-chairman Steve Parish said: "There will be a video feed going out next week which gives a bit of background history and the fans can vote on which crest they want, which is quite exciting.

"I just don't like the current one. It's not very good. It is hard to reproduce and doesn't lend itself to clothing or putting on other merchandise. It's not classy or stylish and is from a bygone era.

"We've got four modern pieces of design. There is one I like but we'll see what the fans say. We've already listened to what they had to say and we're going to evolve it."

While I applaud the idea to provide choice, this lot are rancid.

A) Poor
B) MLS franchise
C) Bland. Looks like it's been knocked up in 5 minutes for a Year 8 design project.
D) Ghastly


So A it is for being the least shit of the 4. I'd say the current badge is pretty classy and stylish in comparison to those 4

But you can be sure that there'll be no clear winner - and the one with the most votes will probably have no more than 40% of the total votes.

So Palace will end up choosing a badge that almost 60% voted against.

Poor selection to choose from, but A.

B, C and D are horrible and some very American.

I think B is ok........football these days is moving more towards a franchise so why shouldn't the brand follow?


One things for sure - ALL of those badges are 10x better than our shite one

I think Reading need to change their badge - looks like a kid designed it.

:lol: They are hideous! Wind up or not, our badge is nowhere near as bad as them.

Fulham still win the worst badge challenge though.

The most surprising thing for me is that people manage to get so aerated about something as trivial as a badge.

All new badges are shit, I just don't think ours can be put in the same league as the choices Palace fans have to get their heads round.

Only 1 badge says that they are a football team, and that badge looks like something out of a 1936 German propaganda film!

I like B, it looks really good. Just not as a football club's badge.

None of them are a patch on their current badge. With these polls where the club are looking to change something, I think they should offer an option for keeping the current badge. I bet that would get more than 40% of the vote!

Of them, A. Even though it's basically Spurs' new crest.
