It’s my understanding that there now won’t be a democratic vote on badge as promised by club they are just going to amend it slightly for our centenary.
Whole thing has been a or shambles from start to finish and not over yet if they’re going to go back on consultation they promised.
New badge

I couldnt really give too much of a shizzle about the badge. Yes its part of the club - But so is the stadium, shirt sponsor, fan behaviour etc.
All I care about is to get back to the promiseland and for the club to be run in a way that would never trigger such a fall as we saw in the early 2000s.

Sounds like thevdirt if comments before we had that disaster of an idea from AR dumped on us thays resulted in worldwide ridicule and petition etc.
AR and AK thought salute was excellent idea, now they’ve taken away any chance for fans to choose what’s to stop there being another gaffe.
I’ll bet the words Leeds United make their way in to replace lufc, same way as they found prominence in our socks.

All they need to is let fans submit their own designs, choose the best 10 and let the members vote on it.

bad idea lol
the backing that awful wooden thing got highlighted this for me
there is literally nothing wrong with our badge.
like jonty above , i believe they will shoehorn
'LEEDS UNITED'
onto the new one. tbh this whole debacle is a joke.

just asked phil hay and he told me this -
for the centenary year they’ll tweak the current one. Think it’s still the plan to look at a new one after that but we’ll see.

Rich, I’ve been talking with popey about the badge for a while. He asked club for me yesterday hence their response which Phil hay has reported.

The whole scenario has been a shambles but if this is all we've got to worry about then I'm a very happy man

Hope not. I reckon they'll add '1919' split '19' / '19' either side of the white rose. Logic says they will, at least. I also wouldn't be surprised if they revamp the white rose itself - simplify it more. Kappa has got me liking the badge now after years of hating it. Part of that is the new regime (Radz/MB), but also the way they've treated it graphically. They tend to simplify the badge (more 2D less 3D) when applied to the shirts/kit.
And also agree with what Gelderd said.

Hi Batty,
Coincidentally or maybe because of its association with Leeds United 😉, Kappa has exploded as a brand worldwide. Supposed to be poised to be a big presence in the USA but I have not seen it yet.
