'ERROR'
Apt
No No No No No No
Christ alive it's awful.
And yet
it's still better than most new badges these days.
That's rubbish!
it looks like they took about 5 minutes to come up with the bit in the middle!
What happened to the Zidane rumours in the end?
Did anything materialise?
Zidane?
Figo was 'the' rumour in terms of big names. Maybe I nodded off.
On Saturday word was Zidane was gonna be unveiled as manager/coach
with Figo joining as a big-name signing. All seems to have gone quiet noew though...
Why
the change?
I don't know
I think Gigi is a top boss, who will really take us places. A full season with an actual defence is the least his efforts this year have deserved
Aye.
It'd be silly to replace him (esepcially with someone with no previous experience of management, no matter how big a name).
You've improved massively over the second half of the season and, especially if QPR spend wisely over the close season, I'd tip QPR to be right up there next year.
Also, what does Zidane know about the Championship?
He'd be so lost
Zidane rumour to QPR?
Oh dear
Just to prove I'm not making this up
(although others might be):

By which I mean...

I heard it too
that he was taking over as coach
New badge?
Why do they rebrand football teams? I hope the bevel effect is on the final version.
It looks like someone's been let loose
in adobe illustrator.
It's also lacking in animals and/or swords.
it's terrible
the new villa one's a bit meh, not as good as the old one but it does have a star on it.
The old QPR was great, the new ones a steming pile of mundane shit.
I find the idea of a new badge a bit bizarre
Surely the club's badge is just, like, the club's badge. You can't change it. I don't go round changing the colours of the Union Jack or sticking a Latin motto under the flag of St George.
NIL SATIS NISI OPTIMUM.
NIL DESPERANDUM CARBORUNDUM.
NIL SEDAKA FOR GLASTO '08.
It happens more often than you'd think
There was that paring down of the Arsenal logo a few years ago from that mighty shield thing, and Coventry dumped their elephants at some stage. We've only had our fox-doing-impression-of-him-out-of-Flowered Up badge since 1994, and the one before that came in in 1983.
WEEKENDAH
Yeah, I know it happens but it shouldn't. I'm a sucker for tradition. I still think the entire league should only be made up of twelve teams and there should be no offside rule.
League football based on Emlyn Hughes International Soccer?
I like the sound of that. I hope we get pitchside adverts for the Early Times and scorers flicking the Vs in celebration too.
It is going back to how it was before
but maybe it was changed with good reason initially?
This one won't make a very good birthday cake
It's so they can copyright the image
and stop people making money off it. At least thats why Arsenla changed there's so i presume the other clubs will have a similar reason. It's all a big load of rubbish, I hate football.
Aye
It's not appalling, but it's not a patch on the old one.
Are our beloved Rangers going places next season?
Big time
Get a whole new back 4, a 20 a season poacher, and a DM who can free Buzz up to unleash hell
its better than the one from that team
you know, where there is a picture of two guys fighting, and theres a pool of sick and stuff and then the bird
i dunno, whatever, i like it.
Elaborate please
that sounds pretty good. Where can I see this?
Sounds like the Springbok
3 hours after full time
I like the 'and then the bird'
bit, intriguing.
i made it up
but its the sort of thing i'd like to see. Fuck this cutesy sheilds thing, have a picture of one of the QPR players nutting the shit out of a kitten or something. much more fun.
The Q block would like that
right I'll get the coffees in, cheers.
The Chinese Team would probably be more apt
EPIC FAIL
looks like it should be on a police helmet.
i don't get it
i mean, it's not awful but it's really boring. why did they change it?
i don't like qpr much, they stole players from us.
'Us' being who?
As LLB pointed out above it's basically our old badge from way way back, even before I was born. Why? We know not.
They tried to change Coventry's
not too long ago but the backlash from the fans made them go back to the trusty elephant.
It's only so they can sell a load of new merch! Doth protest not enough!
That was the reason
why the directors tried for a short time to change Leicester City back to Leicester Fosse five years ago. It was at that point we started thinking maybe the club had its priorities all wrong.
