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.

Why don't we just have the old one back we had before ? , fcuk all wrong with it ,
and we would save money on employing a bunch of fcukwits who don't have a clue what they are doing as well
seriously can't this club get anything right,


Yeah , the last one was perfectly good.

When we got our terrible new badge, we were told we’d had to change the old one as the council owned the copyright. Turned out that was a load of rubbish and the club actually had a copyright on the badge we’d been using. Not sure if it had anything to do with Hoos, but I’m sure he was at the club at the time; just out of interest has anyone independently confirmed that there are copyrighting issues with your old badge?

From the outside, most other fans and the media refer to you as QPR and everyone knows what that stands for, so I can’t see the need for having the full name spelt out as well as having QPR.

Probably for the global market. Same reason, on a massively bigger scale, why Man Utd have Chevrolet as their shirt sponsor when Chevrolet don't have any European dealers anymore.... it's not done for the domestic market.

Okay, but does it matter if someone from Seoul knows you as QPR, but doesn't know what those letters stand for? Would that really impact on your "brand" or commercials in any meaningful way? 90% of pitch side advertising in the PL seems to be in a non- Roman script these days, as we've moved on from "Dave the plumber - 226 High Road", so I understand your point re sponsors, but not sure I agree that QPR need the full name on your badge. You and WBA in England could get away without it.

We're the opposite, we came up with a badge that had our initials and no name, despite no-one knowing us by our initials.

Oh God. The crest nightmare re-awakens.
Chances of getting a crest everyone likes? Zero
Chances of crests being designed that no one will say look like a child did them? Zero.
Chances this row will go interminably for the next 10 years? 100%

They're all fine. 1 or 2 best. Just vote and for fks sake let's move on.

Sorry, in a bad mood today ;)

Bare bones.

Our previous badge which came out circa 1982 had both on and it's one of the most popular amongst the fans. I don't think anyone minded the last few decades that both the full name and the initials were on it. Most comments seem to be about the missing apostrophe!

No 2 is pretty cool, though why not just have '1882' instead of 'est 1882'.

Fair enough, I just reckon in your special case, it would look better as a simpler badge without the wording. You've got a lot of information on that badge: name, initials, date of establishment, stadium name; maybe you should go the whole hog and throw in the full postal address and directions from the tube? And most importantly, a badge with just the initials is easier and quicker to draw on your school books, scratch into your desk and carve into toilet doors. Has anyone thought of that?

I know what you mean but I don't think having the full name or not will make much difference to wannbe Banksy's .
Our 70's shield had both too so I guess it's as much about tradition as any marketing aspect.

I don't like the lack of options we've been given. It should have been like the recent vote for a flag for New Zealand; about 25 different options from a variety of sources. I wonder if we're paying a design consultancy and if so how much. A competition to create the best design would cost nothing.

Finally got through.

They are all much, much better than Flabbio's current effort. If it's got to be one of those four, then the 2nd is my clear choice.

But when it comes down to it, the one in Juzzie's post above is pretty near perfect.

Paying a design consultancy? Based on what we've been offered, I'd say we paid for crayons and a pair of scissors.

Dan Thingy (the guy that did DaveB's avatar, him) did better and I'd have had no problems with any of his designs. The club missed a trick there.

Apologies to Dan and all the members of the Thingy family for forgetting their names.

3 and 4 - spaghetti hoops.

1 and 2 are basically the same but with fonts from different eras.
3 and 4 are basically the same but one of them has a nipple on the top.

This has been going on for ages! Can we just get on with it?
Pick 1 or 2, (2 gets my personal vote) and move on.
the sooner we get rid of the current abomination the better.

Incidentally, I'd love to know how much this actually costing? You can bet your life that some marketing/graphic design company is charging our club a small fortune for all this "work"
we should be told! Sort it out!
