From SB Nation Soccer's newsletter this morning:

quote:

How did we get it? From the government! City's new trademark can be found at the UK's Intellectual Property Office, so sorry about that big launch you had planned, City.




Here's the link to the government website: LINK

I want to know what's wrong with their current crest. This one is worse.

FWIW, this one is harkening back to their older crests... Still, meh.

Also mirrors their crest from an Australian club in their hierarchy.

I like how it incorporates the history. Not a huge fan of the design though. Some of the ones mentioned early on looked better. Some of the fan created ones were great too.

I like it more than the current I think.

It's fine.

The current one is kinda shite, really.

Hardy har har.


But seriously, they went back with the team's original crest. I'm not a huge fan of it but it isn't bad. I liked the mockups with the bee on them. I really wish they would have incorporated the "Superbia in probelia". It wasn't incorporated until the 1997 crest but I've always liked it. It emphasizes the club's past, similar to how United, Tottenham, Chelsea, and to an extent, Pool did their most recent designs.

Could be worse. I don't mind the current crest, but I do like the tribute to the old one.

I saw on the Reddit sub the other day that they may break out the old red and black unis sometime soon as well. I'd like to get my hands on one of those.
