Leeds United have unveiled their brand new club crest and it’s… well, it’s definitely going to inspire some lively debate – put it that way.

The Championship club proudly announced today that, after six months of research and 10,000 consultations, this is the best they could come up with…

Celebrating fans by maintaining some of the highest ticket prices in the second tier. What a club.

Anyway, Pro Evolution Soccer 6 called; they want their ‘Yorkshire White’ badge back. In fact, it looks more like an emblem for an after-school martial arts club. Or an alt-right boy scout initiative of some description.

Leeds reckon their new crest is “ready for the next 100 years”. Pies think it’s anodyne shite – even worse than Don Revie’s gimmicky ‘smiley badge’ from the 1970s.

How about you?

    Ha ha spot on!
    I can’t believe they’ve gone with this and taken the white rose away. Reckon it’ll last a season before they change.
    Bit like Cardiff and a red home kit.

    for me, the old crest conveys a bit of english tradition and charm, while the new one was cobbled together to appeal to the dullest american schoolchild

    This has got to be a joke. Anyway, your review of it is great, so that’s a positive.

      … and it is so nice to wash carpets with those special sliding washing machines. My father would love to do that.
