Don't like any of them tbh. 2nd is the better imo but really don't like them. Just a mess of previous badges.

Sexy Asian dwarves wanted.

Do not understand the negativity. Club listened to the fans and these options are the outcome.

Anything is better than the current badge, which i can't bear to look at.

Number 2 for me.


You don't understand the negativity? New to message boards are you ?

1 or 2 for me.

I like rather than love them, but that's probably good enough.

#1 is probably my least favourite. I find the 'blocky' font absolutely charmless, which is why I've also never been a fan of the old badge that simmo uses for his avatar.

Had it pointed out at the pub that in badge number 2 the Q extends under the PR to create a big fat cock and from then on that's all I can see when I look at it.

Personally don't like any of them and I think I could create something better while down the pub.

Maybe he's just bitter, but I wonder if he means something like this:

Added the Loftus Road bit very quickly to all the examples, though with the old font, so it's a bit of a mis-match, but again, just for a bit of fun...

With this badge, we’ve decided to go with a clear, crisp design incorporating an upwards arrow to subliminally draw the Brand’s core target audience in the Far-East to the idea that QPR are a dynamic, thrusting, upwardly-mobile football business. The #wertogether twitter hashtag is to enable our target audience to build brand loyalty via the club’s in-house social media offerings.

#weramused.

This also works very well for the pedants who insist on an apostrophe in the lettering.

On the downside, we're trying to attract younger supporters - I think children are likely to be quite frightened (and rightly so).

That said, it's innovative yet simple - it gets my vote.

Drawing inspiration from the reverence and affection in which Kemal Ataturk is held by Turkish secularists, we decided that the inclusion of a single, unifying father figure/strongman, would appeal to the brand's target audience in developing markets with limited democratic plurality.

Yes - I see what you've done there. The appearance of a strong and instantly recognisable character strengthens the brand and creates a bond - almost subliminally - with the product (in this case the football club itself).

There are plenty of examples of this in everyday life - I always buy Trevor McDonalds microwave rice, I never give other brands a glance.

Our current one is as much a nod to our past as any of the new options are.

I get people don't like the current badge, but let's not pretend it wasn't designed with some thought about what it represented.
[Post edited 16 Dec 2015 0:49]


Really?

The hoops shield is a nod to the 60's badge, I suppose the football is too though it's a different design of ball. But overall it's dominated by a tacky crown which not only does not appear on any previous badge but does not resemble any crown used in English heraldry; it's fairly obviously continental and no doubt a product of Flavio's idea of what constitutes class, plus great flouncy heraldic scroll stuff (I believe mantling is the heraldic term) which has no association with the club whatsoever.

Possibly, but that's the actual Hammersmith coat of arms - the club badge was based on that, but wasn't quite the same i.e. didn't include the the helmet and all the flouncy stuff (or the motto), which I think is standard heraldic stuff you could find on any heraldry, nothing connected with QPR as such.

If you pick your favourite in the survey, are there any more questions after question 4?

E.g. Can you type any comments in?

Do people really not see it in the current badge.

There's nods to the Hammersmith coat of arms as said, the 70's crest is represented, and the hoops are in there, and the scroll from the 80's badge.

The crown and the shininess are flourishes that aren't needed or relevant, but to say the new options are more of a nod to QPR history is not really fair.
