Lowensda Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Club Brugge recently changed their badge, after signing with Nike...? Funny that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenosetoffee Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 I don't know where I heard it from but didn't Nike say to Everton that could they change the badge to make it easier to make. I am sure that is what I heard from somewhere or read it from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 It's not confirmed that Nike lead the process, but the club have said they were consulted. Man city also changed their badge from being stitched into the shirt directly, to being printed onto a a fabric shield that's stitched into the shirt.

timtoffee23 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 (edited) As Fearthainn said it is shocking and rediculous...When I play pro evolution soccer as the beloved toffees I make my own crests for the shirt.. It's probably not very good but my profile picture is my current idea..It may not be fantastic but its probably better than what we have to look at next season. Granted I forgot to remove the star but could we not actually have one from UEFA for winning one of their european competitions like FIFA finally gave england?

Dalziel Kane Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 The European Cup Winners Cup is defunct now. With that, they probably won't even allow us that. Still maintain not happy about the new crest design, even if some have learned to like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avinalaff Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Far too much negativity being spread. It's nowhere near as bad as folk make out. Marketing wise, it's better for smaller images etc, and a million times better for Photoshop work too I might add. Had we qualified for the top 4 and not had the Moyes fiasco, most people wouldn't have been so upset, or at least not as much. Because there is no football on etc, people have little else to discuss ... other than how much they don't like the kit either, or the shite players we're linked with, or the AGM, or anything else worth moaning about. God help us once the transfer window ends, and we've only signed Kevin Davies on a free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Could just spend our time moaning about moaners instead My distian for the badge would've still be there even if we had signed Messi and won the league, because it terrible.

Hafnia Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 The badge and the manner in which it was changed is a fuckin disgrace, no two ways about it. I'm not opposed to change but to bastardise the clubs icon shows the shower of shite up for what they really are at the helm of the club.

Louis Posted June 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Still bubbling Haf' ? Apparently it's Alan Myers' job to sort it out when he arrives in August. He said it was a top priority for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's important to remain angered when you've been wronged. If they had gone about it the right way and the vast majority of fans agreed with the badge, I would accept it even if I didn't like it. The fact that it didn't happen like that is clearly the reason we have to accept a pathetic image on our shirts next year. So yeah, fuckin annoyed at the underhand way in which we've been treated yet again. It all adds up to me having no trust in the people running the club.

timtoffee23 Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Well there is really a couple of ways where the new crest can come from when it's sorted out from the travesty we have to put up with for this season... One would be in form of a competition from fans on which fans could submit their ideas and the FANS choose which they like and goes into a final 4 etc or for the same thing to happen but with the club coming up with it and fan participation where we as the fans of the club choose the one we like that they come up with. Other teams have done things in that matter when it comes to shirts for a season...Ones i know of being Sheffield wednesday and Ebbsfleet United. Fan interaction in the long run WILL keep fans happy at the end of the day and these tactics they used to change our beloved crest is disgusting.

Droobie Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 I don't mind the new kit... and also didn't mind the new badge. But having a look at the latest 'kids' kits with no sponsor markings, just the badge looks a bit off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's exactly the same as what they provided last season, so I was wrong when I said they'd improved this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted July 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Worse because of the badge? I don't think it's a big deal really, a kid less than 2 years old isn't going to complain because it's not a Nike kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kohen Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) Probably can't promote alcohol on shirts designed for under 18's? That's the reason and it was like that since Chang first sponsored us when we were with Le Coq so we can't blame Nike for that!

MikeO Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 That's the reason and it's been like that since Chang first sponsored us so we can't blame Nike for that! Being pedantic maybe but Chang was only dropped from junior shirts from the 2008/9 season (Josh was well pissed off), so for the first four seasons they sponsored us it was on them.

Lowensda Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I've been bored this evening, whilst the misses is at fat camp. I thought i'd 'have a go' at making some changes to the current badge. I set myself a brief of using the same components which are already present on the badge and ONLY allowing myself to add elements that have been universally agreed, should be on the badge. Please excuse the pixelated images, I've done this on Word and Paint, so they don't look professional, just enough to see what idea I was running with. Anyway, here they are. Feedback welcome. 1. 2. 3. And that one was NOT a direct copy of the barca badge, nor was it designed because we are blatantly hoping to become the British Barca ahaha. Ok, that one was a jokey one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I like number 3. Slightly controversial thought here, but how about a Liver bird in the wreath, a throw back to when Everton were the first team to issue winner's medals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 I quite like the wreath in the background Sounds a bit morbid doesn't it. I prefer Laurel Leaves, but of those designs, the fact of the matter being, the change they've done just simply doesn't sit right. Tried to say more but lost half the work as the retrieve function wasn't fully operative and not only that, been having severe technical difficulties, but say again, have to be in the majority that simply took issue with the new crest design. All clubs go through a change of insignia at one time or another, and it's not always for the better, but what they've done now, just can't get used to it. Wouldn't go as far to say it's horrendous, but for sure they should simply have left it at it was if that's the best they could come up with.
