Romey 1878 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Exactly what I just said to Josh....but it's the least worst option. I'm still hoping Louis is taking the piss and these are knocked up by his nephew. They're on the official site so they're real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 1 or 3 for me... I'm not overly impressed with either of them though. Very disappointed. I'd rather go back to the badge before they tried to change than have any of these options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 if you're right then we need answers as to why the old badge was ever changed. pic.twitter.com/U3EHZGazws ^ that is what badge 1 will look like on the new shirt, I'd post the picture but I can't directly from Twitter on my phone.

Mike21 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) If I had to vote it would be the 1st. I like the 3rd but it looks cheap. The "wrap-around" effect on the Everton below the tower looks like something from clipart in Windows 95. All of them are better than the current logo however, and I still haven't seen any fan-made logos I prefer to these three, despite everyone claiming otherwise.

Sibdane Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I have to admit the third one is growing on me, but I still like some one the ones that were made on here more than these three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fearthainn Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I saw this on facebook minutes ago and I thought it was some joke at first. Seriously? Complaints about the current badge, months of listening to the fans etc and this is the best they can come up with? Number 1 will probably win I suppose. It looks pretty much like our previous badge, the difference being it looks much less modern (which I though was the point of a badge change). Number 2 no thanks. Number 3 will probably get my vote, as it's the less shite out of the 3 imo. Seriously hate that thing at the bottom though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Everton showing clearly that they don't give a fuck what the fans think. They've already got us hooked, Av, we're never going anywhere, but this redesign is aimed at any potential new fans. That's why Everton being part of the badge is a necessity to the club. So, you're right, they don't give a fuck, they know they've got us. Rightly or wrongly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fearthainn Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Everton showing clearly that they don't give a fuck what the fans think. Sarcasm? Don't really see why it's necessary. I think it's fair to be disappointed after seeing the options we've been given. The club seem to have done their best to listen to the fans, unfortunately that doesn't seem to have translated into the designs. Maybe they employ poor deisgners, I don't know, but those are average at best. I also don't see anything wrong with people "moaning" when the current badge was unveiled by the way. It's an aberration. But each to their own... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Wow. I'm actually a little appalled. I genuinely can't believe that some "design" agency has been paid to come up with those. Avin's were better. All of the fan efforts have been better. Number 1 is some Chinese cheap imitation of the original badge. Number 2 looks like an awful version of the current one. Number 3 is my lesser of three shitters. I'd chose that one, based on the fact it looks the most 'professional' All in all. Terrible. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike21 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 The banner beneath the 1st one needs to be a different colour, otherwise from a distance it looks like the bloated shield from the current crest. White background with blue text would work well, I think. Or perhaps some yellow, since the board seems to like it so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Actually looking again, they've not 'thought' about those designs at all. No love's been put into them. They are just "end products" from a criteria list. Any computer could have created them randomly using 'key' elements. Shocking. Actually prefer the current one. At least some effort was made towards fucking the badge up. These don't look like they've bothered to even fuck it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I know which circular design you're referring too, and that badge was miles ahead of these badges.

Any choices regarding the survey were manipulated votes from a forced selection, and nothing to do with fans. They've dictated throughout and made it look like they have consulted us, but it's bollocks. It's insulting to think that is the best professional designers could come up with, especially given the inspiration from thousands of fan designs. Not happy at all, and certainly in no mood for sarcasm. Fearthainn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Is it the same bunch of useless cunts using clip art again? Thought the club would have learnt from last time. Can't help think that they are shitting on the fans to try force this years one on us "here's 3 bollock ones, please tell us how much you prefer the original effort" Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 From the mock ups on the current shirt I'm thinking number three. That ribbon on the first one just kills it for me. Looks shit like the one on main stand. Just knock the little chin off the third one and I would actually like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted September 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 This new tower on the 2012 crest without the text "1878" and "Everton" would be good, sadly it's not going to happen. I've just created a poll thread so that people can vote on which they prefer. http://www.toffeetalk.com/index.php?/topic/25587-poll-thread-proposed-everton-crest/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incorporates modern and traditional styles. Loses this clumsy, fat shield for something more dynamic. Number 2 is outright horrendous. Number is a get out of jail card IMO. And ironically, goes against the original design brief. 3 but it won't even come close. Fearthainn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avinalaff Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Fair enough, thought it might have been because of your previous comment about the moaning, I mean a degree of moaning should be expected after this whole process! Most level headed folk accepted the reasons for change. Others used the changes to fuel their ongoing agenda against the club, and certain sites became platforms for a little shit stirring, and they're the 'moaners' that I was referring to. Again, not sarcasm, but more a recognition of Karma. I didn't like the new badge, but then again, I tried to create a few myself and not everybody liked those either, so you have to put your own individual preferences aside. Why fuck around implementing aspects of the badge that were taken away for reasons of reproduction? It makes it seem a little farcical. Why go back to a silly slanted helter-skelter again? Why use the same silly shield and colours that were clearly unpopular? They sat fans voted on a shield. We didn't. We voted from the choices that were offered, and those choices should have been elected; not dictated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I really don't think number one will win. It's the only one I defo won't vote for, it's two or three for me. Seeing them in different places on the site is making me think number two. I think I'll be having lots of changes of mind before I actually vote. Number two looks better in the reverse colours for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I like number 3, in the reverse colours. Av, could you do the reversed number 3 on the current shirt please? In my head I think it'll look awesome. But it's always hard to imagine it, until you see a representation. StevO, I would bet a lot of money that number 1 will win.
