Selling em here - in medium only.

 

Look pretty good without Carlsberg on though.

Makes the badge look even bigger and uglier, though.

[Guest Si]

Whats ugly about the club crest?

[Guy_Incognito]

Just stick your top in the tumble drier like I did with my 2005 top.

 

Does the job a treat.

Looks like it was designed by committee in the early 90s......wait....

 

Too many redesigns over the years. Too many colours.

 

A simple Liverbird should be the clubs crest again, so simple, and the brand would be a lot stronger visually as a result, which would sell more merchandise. I don't expect it to happen though.

[mickdundee]

if the club were to put the price of a shirt up 5 or 10 pound to cover the loss of having the sponsorship on it would people wnt that?

 

Just asking like

OR the crest incorporates one of the most important parts of the club ethos - remembering Hillsborough.

 

Are you seriously suggest we ditch the eternal flame because you claim it will help sell more merchandise?

 

That argument aside the club sell plenty of stuff with a simple liverbird design on.

£60 f***ing quid

There was a very simple design on here a while ago that featured just the Liverbird and the Eternal Flame (but not the Gates or the YNWA). It looked great.

No worries, when DIC come in, they'll pay us 60 quid to wear the shirt and promote Dubai

Was this it?...

 

[smicer07]

You can get these direct from the club if you ask them over the phone. For far less than 60 quid too.

[surf]

No.

It was that, without the LFC, without the YNWA, without the badge shape (i believe) and two larger eternal flames, one on either side.

[Duncan Disorderly]

thnik the flames were taller on the logo i remember, not sure now

[Duncan Disorderly]

Oh I give up!

No the flame could be retained in a variety of ways, i preferred just a simple liverbird with the flame to one side, but its not just about selling merchandise, or even the strength and impact of the brand, it is about tradition. a liverbird on my chest.....as it stands it is just too literal, to complicated, and the main graphic element that best represents the tradition is obscured by a poorly conceived 90s design job, that was itself an attempt to embed tradition within, yet has the opposite effect.

 

Even if the green was removed it would be a start. I hate any kind of 3D rendering or lighting effects on it too.

Arsenals badge is another example of how not to redesign. their old crest was a classic.

That way you can get more than one sponser on your shirt

point of trivia:

 

arsenal changed the direction of the cannon on their badge (from facing left as is the heraldic norm) to facing right so the club could copyright the design.
