Question Opinions on Current Club Crest?

[OpenFC]

Hello, I'm a design student working on a football project and would like to know what you fans think about the current club badge?

 

[Supershrimper]

I've always liked the badge with it having the key ingredients that make us Southend (a football, three notched Saxon seaxes, a shrimp and the waves)

Always wondered what it would be like if someone was to redesign it with a few more colours. I've only ever known it to have limited colour (white and blue or yellow and blue)

No No No.

Please leave it alone.

Leave the badge alone!

Essex football club, by the sea, nicknamed the shrimpers, all summed up pictorially in the badge.

The changes clubs like Arsenal and West Ham have done to their club badge are garbage and look like they've been drawn by a 10 year old!

If you're bored go and muck about with Col U's!

The enamel pin badge I bought in '78 had the Essex badge in red, with the seax's in a brass colour, as was the football. Shrimp and the waves were blue iirc.

Love the badge and is in keeping with the club and city. No need to change it

 

[leeblue]

Love the badge

My personal favourite.

On the shirt it looked like this.

Nothing to see here, move on

Untwist your knickers chaps, seems like the guy asked what we thought of the badge.. not that it was changing

*JOKE!

 

[Tinks]

No leave it alone
Sometimes things need to be left alone and dont need any “Upgrades” they are fine the way they are

 

[rlb999]

Very trendy to upgrade your badge currently, but not for me.

He only asked for opinions on what supporters think of the badge.

I like the current badge. Has all the right elements in a tidy design.

He only asked for opinions on what supporters think of the badge.

and I gave an opinion!

Might be forceful, but if you don't like the answer, don't ask the question!

People are "answering" a question that wasn't even asked. The poster only asked what we think of it. They didnt say "what changes would you make?" People need to read posts properly before getting all weird about it. It might be part of a wider project on brand recognition and the role of club badges. Back off. Chill.
