LondonBristolian Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) Back in the dark days of 2020, me and some friends in a WhatsApp group past the time with a “crest cup”. I was the only City fan involved so did not have that much influence on the result. We beat Worthing in the semis to set up a final against Swansea, who overcame Derby. The plans for the final then got so convoluted it never actually happened. Nonetheless I think Four Four Two are talking nonsense. Mind you, I think a lot of people miss the B-shaped Robin and the C-shaped ball so they are not alone… PS just read the article and realised Swansea have a far worse crest now than they did then.

BanburyRed Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 It's our badge and our city (literally), irrespective of the design, FourFourTwo can **** right off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Our badge ain’t the best / probably a fair reflection. Our nickname too is pretty boring too being shared with many others. I think the Forest badge is one of the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keepers Ball Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Pff FourFourTwo? Became an uttely shite magazine. I used to get it every month and it never mentioned us in any way in the last years i bought it apart from the predictions at the start of the season that allows rated us to go down. Stopped buying it a few years back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Just one of many polls of these kinds. Seen our badge do very well on other Social Media polls. Just the way it is, personally think Derbys badge is miles better than Forests when it comes to simplistic designs. Ours isn’t too dissimilar to either. Its all a load of bollocks really.

Dredd Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Hated that badge since it was released, I don’t have a single nice thing to say about it, but I don’t care what some magazine or podcast or Twitter poll thinks. The opinion of our own fans should be all that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 I’m not massively keen on our badge, but it’s all so subjective. I think the Wolves one is awful, and that one’s ranked highly in the article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBW Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Who uses 4-4-2 anymore anyway? If they knew what they were talking about they'd have changed formation by now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Hitler Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 I quite like 442 but this article seems to be written by someone who has zero idea what qualities a club badge should have: it should be instantly recognisable and look cool. The coat of arms badges are neither of these. They are overly complicated and a blob of too many colours from any distance. Whatever you think of the particular clubs I'd say Forest at one and Wolves at two are fair choices. Barrow at third though? This is dire: As is Barnsley at fourth: Neither of those is recognisable from any distance; when you see the graphic on telly of all the club badges in a division you identify Barnsley by a process of elimination. That article is a truly terrible ranking selected by an idiot. I'm not bothered by our badge's lowly position but am amazed that the editor okayed such utter ullage for publication. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42nite Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 I don't like our badge at all, it looks very childish and would be more at home in a Disney shop...in my opinion. When I see Nige doing interviews, this badge on his chest just doesn't look right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
