If the new owners want to change the badge they could consider holding a competition. Each local school is asked to come up with a design. A panel comprising representatives of the team, the non-playing staff and the supporters pick the best three. They are then professionally prepared and a vote amongst supporters held. The badge with the most votes becomes our new badge. The prizes for the three schools submitting the "best" entries could be seeing the badge professionally produced and a visit to the training ground including dinner with the players. The winner gets to see how the badge gets onto the shirt, a tour around the KCOM on a match day and a seat to watch the game. The winner to be announced at a special dinner at which all the schools submitting entries are invited. The number of teachers/pupils attending each of the events to be sorted by the club and the school.
I'm a real fan of the simplified Wolves badge and others of the 70s era I'd like to see some ideas included that simplify the tiger image - like team GBs lion logos for example (obviously in a single colour) Stay away from cartoon , RL / US sporting imagery. Also it would be good to have H.C.A.F.C. On the badge instead of HullCity or 1 904 .
thanks for that!!! haha It's not the easiest animal to try and draw at the best of times, but then to try and make it into some kind of logo. I'll give it another go
What's wrong with the current one? It's powerful, distinctive, stylish and confident; it is the badge of a confident club, a PL club with ambition. Look at the colours, the tiger head, who in football would have any doubt who it is - the 1904 boasts our history, it has been integral to our fight to keep our name, a name that can be emphasised in other ways. WE are the Tigers and this badge says it, it's the one good thing that could remain from a turbulent but hugely historic period in the life of Hull City AFC. Don't throw this fantastic badge away by making it state the bloody obvious; let's be confident in where we've been and where we're going.
No it's not, they shot themselves in the foot with it, as 1904 was inspirational during match protests; they didn't have the football nous to understand that, but we should.
