Club Badge

[cufcwill]

Was my favourite of the three and while I don't love it I don't think I dislike it more than the current badge. My only big issue is that it's only monochrome which I don't mind too much on the kit but when the badge is on its own I don't think it stands out that much.

I agree with others; it's not that exciting but design-wise it's the best of the three.

I still think it's a bit embarrassing that it's such a blatant River Plate rip-off. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Escudo_del_C_A_River_Plate.svg/1200px-Escudo_del_C_A_River_Plate.svg.png


It makes me think of Forest Green running round in that ridiculous Barcelona knock-off badge before they had their big rebrand.

For some of us on here the nod to River Plate is very meaningful 😀

So... the badge...it's just really bland.

I think like others have suggested, I'm not sure if the Cambridge Utd and 1912 will appear on the shirt under the logo or not.

The shared promotion images, suggest not.

[Dylan]

The sensible choice. I think the other two show how difficult doing something original is.

The sub identities are absolutely lovely.

UP THE U'S!!!!

I assume similar to the Liver Bird and Cannon on the Liverpool and Arsenal shirts for example that the badge wont necessarily match the crest.

With this much consultation it was always going to be a bland yet sensible copycat of the current trends choice.

Still think (with some basic design alterations) the crest they initially suggested could have been an improvement.

Bold statement! The first one was a shocker with its squished Nazi vibes.

If we are going for that then we might as well have saved the thousands on a designer and used AI.

If you're going to make an effort to change the badge that's been around about 30 years, then at least produce something that is less naff.

The designer was free

I was happy with our current badge but the longer the process went on as regards new options the less I was bothered. It's not original but it's tidy and if that pleases potential sponsors/investors fine. Gary Gardner not doing the unveiling was a real missed opportunity though.

I've just written a fecking big cheque to the club. It's worked.

What was point?

A nice image in your profile picture - I like the idea of incorporating a 10 pin bowling venue in our new stadium re-development.
