    Crest re-branding - update

    Correct Wicksta, as the club have now confirmed with TF explaining his earlier confusing tweet:

    Re-branding of club crest put on hold ...

    FOLLOWING today's exciting announcement that Nike will be our new technical partner from the start of next season, the club can confirm that the re-branding of the crest has been put on hold.

    QPR Chairman, Tony Fernandes, told www.qpr.co.uk: “We are fully committed to our plans for a new crest, but the announcement of our Nike partnership and the lead times it creates makes it sensible to put any changes on hold for the moment.

    “When the time is right, fan consultation will - as always - be key, as we look to design a crest that all our supporters can be proud of.”

        Makes perfect commercial sense to have the new crest ready just in time for Nike's second season. Keep up lads.

          Agreed!

                      That last sentence is a lovely sentiment, but whatever they come up with will have some people up in arms and demanding it change, and refusing to buy any merchandise. That is a fact of life now sadly, everyone gets to have their say. If they do manage to come up with a new badge that everyone will tolerate, it will rank up there with that fella who did the man-fishing and turned water into wine (and I have my doubts about that tbf, I've seen Penn & Teller...)

                      Save the money and keep the one that we have now that some people like, some people are meh about, and some hate.

                      I'd rather not waste the money and keep the one at the moment

                        How ridiculously pompous and contrived this club statement sounds.
                        Its a little logo you doodle on your PC and be done with it - if need be at all.
                        And we don't need a new one so soon after the introduction of the current one.
                        Banning people is no longer my hobby,
                        but take a look at my photo blog:

                            Dyslexic so please don't feel the need to correct my spelling mistakes as I really don't give a **** and before you say use spell checker if it is spelt right / wright but not in context spell check is useless
