    On footy away days via Facebook?

    Is this a wind up, or is this actually going to be your new badge!?

    It' not a wind up pal.

    Leeds say they consulted more than 10,000 people and concluded that their supporters related to nothing more than the fanbase itself. Kinnear was previously involved in a change of badge at Arsenal, who are defined by their iconic cannon, and at West Ham United, where two hammers represent the iron work and ship-building heritage of what was their locality before the move to the London Stadium. At Elland Road, the Leeds salute seemed apt: tribal, individual and hard-edged. A representation a club who don’t lose sleep over popularity contests. The move is bold and certain to divide opinion.

    As of the badges Missing factor.

    Q: What do Leeds fans & their New badge have in common?.

    A: They're both empty from the neck up.

    I bet Glory was one of the 10,000 asked and he was probably shopping in scumland at the time.:emoticon-0105-wink:

    As for the badge, horrible. I wouldn't have minded if the old Leeds hanging sheep one was brought back. The only thing to do is boycott the shirt and just don't buy it..<ok>

    My 14 yr old son texted me just after midday to tell me he no longer wants a Leeds kit for Christmas (first time in ten years!). The club will have to seriously consider the down turn in income if they go ahead with this. Even if they can't see how **** it looks surely they'll realise they stand to lose out on a lot of cash with the backlash that's in full swing ?

    Gives you an idea the quality of "professionals" the club are hiring

    When a 14 yr old Leeds United fan says something like that, you know there's something wrong. I hope that a backlash will get Raz to change his mind.<ok>

    Eires been hacked by Glory but to be fair this is a joke. Why not go back to happy times when we were the best side in the world and have that owl or even get Leeds City Council involved and use their crest, all Leeds arent we. Would have been better with a Spearmint Rhino logo FFS

    They asked over 10,000 under 8s from schools in the Leeds area to design it:wink:

    Glory was right again.

    All we are getting is pr bollix from Rad.
    He won’t improve the team but he will make lots of money and produce loads of gimmicks.

    I am not interested in anything but the state of the first team and them making progress and on that basis it’s time to say sell the club Rad and **** off.

    Looks like something the Soviets designed in 1930. Awful.

    I'm thinking this is a hoax, a clever marketing ploy to get everyone going(and laughing) and then bosh!!! they'll introduce something half decent.
