Everyone of them would stand out against the blue kit because of the outline I'm not happy with the whole scenario if I'm honest. I think the club have been manipulative throughout and haven't given fans respect for their intelligence. To suggest they've listened to fans is outrageous. Listening isn't giving somebody options to choose from. That is simply dictating the outcome. They should have just done what they wanted to do - end of. Just don't pretend that these designs are as a result of consultation with fans as that is an action that will see fans turn against them in a huge way.

Not really sure what you are getting at to be honest. The shield design was heavily voted for, the club have got a company in to design 3 options and given the fans a vote. Much more than they should have ever done

Not really sure what you are getting at to be honest. The shield design was heavily voted for, the club have got a company in to design 3 options and given the fans a vote. Much more than they should have ever done Look at it more closely: The club designed it's crest and announced it. Whether fans liked it or not was unfortunate, and the club should have stood strong and said "ok, when the next one gets done, we'll invite ideas". They didn't. They were weak and back tracked, and told the fans that they would redesign the badge again, but this time consult the fans, and it would be changed for next year. That was a mistake, but pretending to do so is an even bigger mistake. The fan survey was a farce. It didn't ask fans what they wanted. It gave the fans a list of ingredients and asked them to vote on which ingredient on the list was important to them. Fans didn't have a choice. They simply had options dictated to them, a bit like if you rent a house and the tenants give you 5 colours of worktops to choose from. You can't say you want Butchers Block if that is what you like. You can only choose from black, white, blue, red, or yellow for example. If you don't like any, you're stuck. They didn't ask the fans for 'their' ideas. We were invited to upload images to them, but they were clearly ignored, and only the ingredients decided upon by the club have been implemented. Now, we have a choice of 3 designs, none of which are anything to do with fans, and all to do with the club. Vote, or don't vote, but the club will say the winning crest was decided on by the fans, and that will be their biggest mistake, as it is clearly deception and manipulation.

Couldnt disagree less. This isnt a Blue Peter comp, lets have millions of ideas and choose who has coloured in the best. The consult was clear and concise, do you prefer shield, circle etc.....what are the important elements you want on it...name, wreath etc. The have collated these and sent it to a design company who designed the National/Aintree. I agree they should have said this our new badge, shut the ***** up about it but they tried to do a PR exercise and fans still want more, if nothing else i hope they learn from that
