Time for a new logo?

[Cian]

Roundel looks better than the shield one, to me anyway.

 

[Cian]

They own the round ones but i can't find any evidence that they own the rights to the shield as a trade mark

The shield would be a 'defacto trademark' assuming they can prove they've actively persued anyone using it without their permission, at least ones they're made aware of. Some oversight to not register it though!

 

[Eggman]

Back to the old round badge for the first season at Falmer would be very good idea

 

[champion7]

I personally like this one,

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

The original and STILL the Best

Winner!

Still like the one with "THE SEAGULLS" round the bottom ala the Admiral shirts. I think it combines the heritage element of the original, with more modern and clean lines.

Disagree. It's got a ruddy great seagull on it, you don't need to take up space pointing out the obvious, especially if you compromise that lovely font.

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Something that incorporated the twin towns crest with the seagull, but without looking to busy would, imho, be spot on.

 

[Igor Gurinovich?]

this one please.. the latest one looks a bit cheap.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

this one please.. the latest one looks a bit cheap.

Are you sure? Look closely at that seagull's face. looks awful.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

In the first season at Falmer would be GRAND to change the Albion's name to The Swans.

Would make that weird old backwoodsman who runs the local pub for local people seem like the best Albion fan ever

I like the current badge - but I think I am probably alone in this.

Likes this.

[Billy the Fish]

I prefer the new one, the seagull looks more healthy, the old skinny one was like an AIDS victim

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

I personally like this one,

I agree, but changing the nickname also to just the Albion has more class to !!

 

[les dynam]

the round one is FAR nicer and i too would like to see it reinstated for 1st season in the new ground.

i think the club changed the logo to the current one when dick finally took over, 1st season at gillingham. i guess they wanted a fresh look at the time. it does look a bit cheap though.

I prefer the new one, the seagull looks more healthy, the old skinny one was like an AIDS victim

when we found the pictures of the old gully mascot from the early 90's we were going to do a front cover of TSLR with "Gully's Dad had AIDS" ... but we bottled it. probably for the best.

 

[Franks Wild Years]

This is proper imo. Add the two crests or the round badge and away we go. And red numbers on the back.

 

[Spacegull]

The round badge with the blue background is a minimalist design classic.
The shield badge is a tacky embarrassment which looks like a reject from a under fives design competition.

 

[Superphil]

I reckon we should all have patches like this on our sleeves!!

Anyone remember these? I don't BTW, just wondering if anyone knew what they were all about when they came out, it's a fabric patch, about 10cm high, I think it is meant to be ironed on, like a sergeants stripe, just not sure if it was for some sort of a campaign at the time.

Just some old tat flooged by the club shop around 1978/79 ish i think.


and why didn't we ever re- consider these shirt designs for a longer spell rather than just a one off game.......
