Zoo Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Nil Satis Nisi Optimum is missing? If they change to this badge then I hope they put it somewhere on the shirt (like Liverpool did with the flames). I'm not a fan straight away but it could well grow on me.

Fearthainn Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) That is fucking shocking to be honest. I've seen so many fan made alternatives on the web that are so much better than that (the one I have as an avatar for instance - took it from somewhere else). I seriously hope we won't have that on our shirts next season. Edited April 19, 2013 by Fearthainn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 It wouldn't surprise me. Graphics/Art is always changing so Everton will want to keep up with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I've not got a problem with it being dropped either, I'd just like it to be moved somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hope its just for a clothing range. Don't think it would look to bad as a small metal emblem on a polo shirt or jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Dont get what this thread is about?

This isnt our badge it will be a retail number, fuck me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoward18 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 This could easily just be a patch for the shorts or to put on souvenir mugs or something. Let's not jump the gun here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I doubt the thread was supposed to cause a massive kick-off. It's just here for people to debate whether or not they think it will become the clubs main crest and if they do or don't approve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that's what it's all about...just a stylised version of the true logo. Hope to god we don't lose the original though....OK I'm an old fart, but the history of this club goes way back beyond my lifetime, my father's and his father's too. The logo and the motto are as much a part of the club as Goodison itself. Change it for keyrings and beach towels? OK, but leave the original on shirts and Goodison!

Louis Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 That logo is being used to promote this product: http://www.danburymint.co.uk/football/everton/everton-victory-pin-collection-EVVP-C64-P4074 This is the envelope: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 I posted a few months ago that we were rumoured to be changing the badge for next season. I hope that's not it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we have at the moment isn't "the original" though is it? It's changed numerous times over the years.... Didn't have NSNO on it 'til the late seventies.

Louis Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Second bottom left without 'EFC' would do me. Have you ever noticed that the graphics on Sky and BBC often cut the 'marquee' off the crest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I prefer to have NSNO on it. I had to look it up when I first read it -- before I was an Everton supporter -- and it gave me a sense of pride knowing that "only the best is good enough" for this club. From there I look up more information about the club, because it sort of inspired me. I think it's a good thing for supporters like me(supporters who come into the game late without any direction of a club to choose). Obviously, it's not the only reason I like the club; it just added to my opinion of its values and determination. It's a motto that anyone can get behind. Just a thought.

Lowensda Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Is it true that they consulted with fans during the design process? Was it the young fans? Kids even? Would have liked a mass consultation? Like when the lower league teams have several kit designs on offer and there's a public vote? I understand that a lot of money has already been spent on the redesign of the crest but it's pretty poor. It'll grow on me I'm sure but for now, I don't like it.

Zoo Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I think all motto's have a good meaning with football clubs. I actually like Tottenham's old motto which was 'To Dare is to Do' although after they changed the badge they too dropped it from the crest. I'm not overly happy with Nil Satis being dropped from the badge but I'd still be happy if it's still implemented throughout the football club. (i.e. - on the advertising boards around the stadium, on merchandise etc...) Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I thought the ones that Aston Villa or Glasgow Rangers had, such as 'ready' and 'prepared' were good enough. Nothing too extravagant. Had another look at the design and is that the color they're going with. A mundane gray variety ? This debate will continue, but can appreciate why so many are against this.
