marcus jones Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 Ahhhhh there ya go now... this looks rather trick... That's really good Robatar!! I know it's a big ask and you can say no, could you please put all this inside a long circle like the one AC Milan has instead of a shield? I'd love to know what it would look like!!

Dalziel Kane Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I couldn't quite comprehend the thread title ? Had a look at all the designs presented, and first impressions, not really in favor of any of them. The shape appears wrong, and while an improvement on the awful fat design we have now, just couldn't really take to things. Heard the club have actually settled on a new design I read a day or two ago ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robatar Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 The thread got moved for some reason... if the club has settled on a design that's fine... this is more an exercise in broadening the scope of creativity more than anything else. I would agree however with the 'plump' look and that it looks hideous (in my opinion). Ive done branding for companies for 20 years or so now and Id have to say now that while it embraces a raft of historical and unique attributes which are absolutely required to maintain its integrity, uniqueness and purpose... it somehow falls short in projecting some other progressive and modern qualities... aspects that reflect the 'now' and the realisation of greater 'buy in' and in the greater context of its scope for greater merchandising/marketing potential.

It was supposed to have been moved into the general crest discussion thread Robatar but somehow it created its own new numbered one. I've now moved it to where we meant to put it in the first place .

Dalziel Kane Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 When is the decision for the new design ? Have they made an annoucement yet or a final date for this issue. Say again, sure I read in recent days a decision has been made, but appears this debate is still ongoing ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avinalaff Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 You can have as many fancy designs as you want, but when they lose clarity as they become smaller, they are no good for merchandising needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Page 4.2, two designs under "Alternate towers", I actually quite like. The others. Not so much. Great reading though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Page 4.2, two designs under "Alternate towers", I actually quite like. The others. Not so much. Great reading though. That's a theme park in Staffordshire isn't it Had a look at the above link incidentally, and for all the fancy scribbles and ideas, just couldn't settle on any one design. Some of them are quite atrocious in actual fact. It's almost as if they gave a class of bored ten year olds some crayons and 'see what you can come up with in fifteen minutes' This debate will run and run until there is some kind of finalization, or someone can agree on a finished article, but thinking right now, why did they have to tamper with the fucking thing in the first place ? If it isn't broke, don't fix it, etc. Some of the most recent presentations have been borderline ludicrous. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
