The front runners were Newcastle Rangers, Newcastle City and Newcastle United, imagine (MLF klaxon!) if we'd gone for one of the other two?

Leaked option for the new crest....

I remember talking to an Irish kid who swore we used to have a mad shirt with the 'no smoking' sign on it. After I stopped laughing I pointed out that it was West Bromwich Albion who had that one.

I'd be like the shagging couple from the fast show if I was him tbh.

I'm not too arsed about getting a new crest I just hope it looks decent which I have a few doubts about. People are allowed to have an interest in it tbh.

But that same lad whinges about everything and anything in virtually every post he makes.

I have no problems with interviews.

I couldn't get away with Lego or Meccano at all. Probably why I had no interest in DT at school which I wished I had of shown more interest for being an adult. My patience with stuff like that was nil, same with art. If it didn't look right straight away I'd go in a huff with it.

Aye that's the one, saw his civil war one as well and I think it was him who did a shorter one about buffalo and them being almost wiped out?

I watched some of this, as TBD says, it was epically bad. Unless either team luck out on some good season long loan deals they're absolutely fucked if they get promoted. The quality was atrocious.

Not sure what month it was but I've a memory of that year playing subbuteo in the dining room with lampshades as floodlights and listening to the recently taped top ten featuring talking heads, fergal Sharkey, Jennifer rush, Madonna, Elton John and aha. It's funny what sticks.

Is that the one that was on BBC 2 then later repeated on Netflix? Absolutely superb if it's the same series.

Tbh, that's almost certainly better than what we'll end up with.

YP.

Salford?

Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City and Spurs just did their older badges and they looked better for it but any genuinely new designs have been generally dumbed down. Yep.

It's nailed on to look shit, doesn't matter what they decide on ultimately. I loved the magpie in front of the castle, loved the NUFC badge, when the current one came out I thought it was brilliant, still loved the others though. But if you look at other modern updates on club crests I'm struggling to think of any that's been an improvement for whatever reason they give? It's almost a dumbing down because in this day and age modern technology can't handle copying an image? I reckon it be a bolder version of the shield where it looks like it pops out the screen/shirt/whatever with some token magpie or something with Newcastle United only or maybe just even NUFC? There'll be no 'football club' on it that's for definite.

They didn't. It's apparently 'Because the current crest is a raster-based image that doesn’t scale well across different platforms.' (unless someone's having me on?) So the new crest will be a Bob Marley mash up. New run out anthem... 🎵...he was a Gallowgate soldier, Taken from Leazes end, Sent to the Corner, Fighting for survival, Fighting in the resale He was a Gallowgate soldier, Taken from East Stand, Sent into exile Fighting for the survival Fighting in the resale...🎶

They seem to have my email still and have had no bother sending out invites to buy tat or tickets for pre-season friendlies at home they're struggling to sell? If they send me it and I'm dead nobody will know or care.

I hate the colour, it's better than the castore green one but everyone of these Saudi green shirts are wank. I don't even think it's because it's green, it's the shade of green. I don't know?

Have the club mislaid the historical data from purchases, etc?

No. We're going to end up with a cartoonish badge like arsenal and Man U whatever they decide. Also nice to see I'll have no say, (most of us won't anyway in reality) as it's ST holders and members only so any old timers who've given this club a lifetime support can't even vote on something as simple as a club crest. Cheers NUFC, loud and clear as usual where I stand in the hierarchy of customers, sorry, fans.

The thrill of finding a dirty mag in a hedge or bushes is something the youth of today will probably never experience.
