Old badge coming back according to Fernandes..... on 11:39 - Apr 15 by Antti_Heinola | The badge really is next to irrelevant. Don't mind the new one, the one before looked very dated to me. Camberley's one, however, is lovely. Always preferred that one, and has a lovely retro style now. Would be very happy if we went back to that. |
Agreed, we've got bigger problems than the badge. It's a non-story for me. | |

Guinness as a shirt sponsor. And free Guinness, or Prozac. As most others have stated, there are bigger issues, but I will be pleased to see the back of it as it will forever remind me of the orange one and his 'boutique'. | |

Would love to see the back of the new badge, would like to see less hoops than on the current shirt, but most of all I would like to see a reasonable drop in ST prices. Otherwise shirt and badge design won't bother me too much as I won't be able to be there that often to see them. | | | |
Old badge coming back according to Fernandes..... on 13:08 - Apr 15 with 1599 views | QPunkR | It is a small change of something that matters to QPR to generate good PR among the fans. I'll take that news any day over the original Flabbio decision to change the crest, which was a small change of something that matters to QPR to generate bad PR among the fans. Decisions like this demonstrate at least a rudimentary understanding of where us fans stand. Can't wait to be rid of the disgusting Tango-commissioned monstrosity | |

Some people may not care, but I havn't bought anything with the new crest on it and never will, I care a lot about the crest and hopefully it will start to signofy a new direction for the club and getting back to what many perceive to be better days. | |

No, it looks like the schematic for a cetrifugal pump. Our current badge looks like it is designed to be cast in plastic. The previous one was always about enamel, and stylish to boot. | |

Works for me... I always disliked the Briatore chest-hair badge. Getting our club back one small step at a time. Thank-you, Tony! Next, the apostrophe? Or is that asking too much? | | | |

Old badge coming back according to Fernandes..... on 21:17 - Apr 15 with 1484 views | Esgaroth | I spoke to Uncle Tony outside the ground at the START of this season about getting rid of flavios horrific crest and he and Phil Beard both said that the "Crest" is going to be changed along with a whole rebranding exercise. Admittedly other plans have taken a back seat in the public eye because of the situation we are in but they are still happening irrespective of what division we are in. The Badge, The Training Facility, The New Stadium etc......its all happening so its ridiculous to expect the entire clubs focus to be on the playing staff. Yes sorting the team out is obviously the top priority, but thats the remit of the manager and board of directors. People have to realise that there are many aspects of change happening at QPR.The marketing department however can't influence that can they! so they have to get on with the job they are paid for, and eradicating Fat Flabbio's influence is a major part of it so try not to think that everyone at the club including the tea lady has total focus on where our expensive players are going. I for one will be glad to see the back of it and i think the "Majority " of our fan base would choose to return the the previous incarnation all be it an updated version. | |

Old badge coming back according to Fernandes..... on 10:15 - Apr 15 by RBlock | This. It is good to see it coming back, but it is a superficial PR change to please us, and this is not the the area the club should be focusing on. I hope Tony is still focusing on the long term planning, for this summer and the Championship. |
Not that superficial when you've painted airliners with the old bage! Hate the current one - I like others have not bought anything from the club shop with it on, so it's got to be bad for revenue. Actually loved the last one - just liked the lettering. | | | |

I agree with this - may not be a top priority but I would never buy anything with that crest on! Not that that would bother the club as anything I'd get here is moody anyway! | | | |
Old badge coming back according to Fernandes..... on 05:25 - Apr 16 with 1347 views | Esgaroth | I wont even have a car sticker with the new "Crest" on in the motor. And havent bought any form of merchandise from the club shop since it was changed. Tony was asked if he would change the badge and he answered the question. Its something that was happening anyway so I can't understand people saying he needs to get his priorities right and sort the team out first..........he will!!!! Should the catering staff put down thier aprons and go and find us some players? Not everyone who works at QPR has a role in doing that so get a grip and embrace the fact that the Tango & Cash era is coming to an end and we are geting our club back. | |

It's not about priorities, it's more that this is just a sop to supporters at a time when the club is a mess and we're on a knife edge as to which way things will go next season. | | | |

One way of looking at it. Or it could be a return to actual values at the club. Focussing more on what local fans would like and starting a wave of positivity that will extend onto the pitch. Like Esgaroth says the marketing dept will be sorting this out at the same time the playing staff is being looked at by different people. The club should be able to multi task various issues or else they will be in trouble. | |

Exactly my point. I too have never bought anything with that shambles of a crest on it, nor ever would. I needed some new white shorts for football and saw the home ones on sale in one of the sports shops. Just couldn't bring myself to buy em cos they had a small version of that abomination on the side. Looks like I'll be able to buy new QPR shorts just in time for retiring from football in some 18 months! | |
