It took me about 10 years of watching football to realise that the Fulham badge had FFC in the middle. I thought it was just a weird symbol until I was about 21.

[@SocialStigmaPodcast]

You have just educated me🤣

[@GoldenKnightsFan-dv9er]

QPR badge is elite. Good work CC

[@rogerioceni2640]

Was so relieved when QPR finally went back to something resembling their classic badge after that awful thing that was used during the Briatore era. Hopefully Middlesbrough follow their lead and go back to the iconic 1986 badge.

[@jackolivant2771]

Grimsby supporter here. Couldn't help but laugh that when you were commenting about our badge you displayed our old one, and still put the new one on the tier list 😂

Is there a bull in oxford? No, but there may be an ox.

newcastle and sunderland actually are pretty similar. two of the best badges as well

[@alfiemarston4807]

Just a bit of context on the Coventry City badge, the bird on fire is a phoenix- symbolising the blitz of WW2, the elephant is a symbol of the city

Went to uni in Lincoln and the Imp is absolutley everywhere. It's in the cathedral and it's holding its leg because an angel jit it with a stick or something

Most Cardiff fans agree with you, we have a very boring badge and it lacks our Welsh identity

[@callumcooper97]

Your red kit had plenty

[@jacalax3152]

​@@callumcooper97 were the BLUEbirds why would we be red

[@jacalax3152]

As a cardiff fan i think we should go back to something like the 1998 -2003 badge as it showed our welsh heritage but keeping us as the bluebirds unlike what tan did

[@CreedM8]

Aston Villa’s badge was better before they changed it 😢

[@dinohermann1887]

Nope, the new one looks like the one badge from the 1980s that they‘ve won the Champions League with it (in an era, where clubs like my Hamburg (HSV) or Nottingham Forest could win a European trophy).

[@KismetMulhaneski-to3wg]

Yes it's unfair to judge a badge design which is basically transient even though he's still being harsh. But IT'S MEANT TO BE A ROUNDEL (just like Middlesbrough's). Also I can't be doing with Stars on badges even though clubs want to flaunt their Champions league status (the Italians have a much more organised system on shirts with regalia showing what each club has done etc). I notice the real Villa logo is so good that some of the training shirts etc i saw on tv have a retro badge on just to remind everyone?

I appreciate u putting birmingham City in the perfect art section

[@mikelitorous5570]

Not being biased but I think the Sunderland badge is actually one of the better newer badges. Due to its detail and it’s meaning as well as the colour scheme

[@Lawton008]

A lot of fans prefer the old ship badge and it boggles my mind. Ours now is near enough perfect.

[@sprinterofficial8457]

Wolves probably have the best badge in the uk, is simple straight to the point, unique colours and shape, and it’s so recognisable, like it’s got a wolf on it so no one would be far off

[@Cunha-10]

Ye go on wolves

[@mishyinoz]

It looks like a Tangram set

[@KismetMulhaneski-to3wg]

I love it and the Plymouth one is Tier one also. However - checkout the OLD Wolves badge too (underrated).

[@CabbageSim]

[@alexthacker210]

Came for the Birmingham ranking, stayed after the placement.

[@NoLuckJKMY807]

Imo the best looking football badges among the 92 clubs (in no particular order) are: Crystal Palace, Southampton, Liverpool, Middlesbrough, Sheffield United, Cheltenham, Portsmouth, AFC Wimbledon, Carlisle and Leyton Orient. Meanwhile my runners-up go to these: Man United, Chelsea, Coventry City, Exeter City and Gillingham.

[@ryanrawlings8670]

I live in phoenix Arizona, USA and every time I proudly wear my Tottenham shirt some bloke says “hey, Tottenham hotspurs! Alright!” The badge (logo) is iconic and recognizable around the world!!! In my opinion it’s perfect art Btw, love your channel and content!

Holy shit. I didn't realize I needed this

[@Ruaribush]

You should do a follow up with non-league badges. Some absolute howlers

[@1882osr]

Once messaged Basildon United to try and work out wtf their badge was meant to be, only for a few days later to see them post the meaning and then a couple months after that a slight redesign... I feel sorry for whoever ran their social media after realising how much they must've been asked

[@stevejohnson9234]

Coventry city badge explained...the elephant is the mascot of the city of coventry with the castle wall,the birds are the phoenix rising from the ashes of the blitz and the Griffin,so a lot going on

[@ryanrawlings8670]

Way too much going on

[@JustDeezel]

Big up the reading badge 🙏🙏🙏 Just a shame that we're in league 1 now so you don't get do rate the kit

[@setokaiba.]

I dont know how to properly explain it, but Newcastle and sunderland have the most "football club like" crests in england imo. Theyre literally perfection. If i had to make my own football club crest, their crests would be a sort of template id go off. I do have to also mention though that they look like they could be houses in harry potter or something though 😅

[@TheQuestionableHippo]

Well good badges for crap teams

[@KismetMulhaneski-to3wg]

Actually just to be fair - even though I diagree with almost everything here - you - and all your rivals doing this subject - should do a video comparing THE OLD badges with the new ones as a redux video i.e. how does the 'Etihad Eagle + Stars' compared with the 'real' City logo, the modern Forest 'tree' vs the trad stag badge, the 70s aerodynamic Ram vs the old crested Derby badge etc. Everybody on YT should do em all!

[@Millie_fozers]

The Oxford badge is actually an OX, not a bull, and there is an OX statue in Oxford

[@jayshai]

Man City badge looks like something you'd find on a coaster in a gastropub

[@craiglittle1437]

It's amazing how I could agree with you so much on some but disagree with you so much on others.

[@glen1555]

A bantam is a colourful bird, the claret and amber realistically reflect its plumage. All Bradford's football teams, city, Park Avenue, the Bulls and their previous incarnation as Bradford Northern all used similar colours, claret, amber, white and black. Recently there was an attempt to update and simplify the badge, to emphasise the bantam, but it was voted down

[@benm431]

Anybody want to do the birds and bees conversation with Ciaran seeing as he thinks cockerels lay eggs.

[@mathewperring]

The Southampton one normally seems to divide opinions. But I was glad you thought of it positively.

[@puffin7285]

@6:20 The colour scheme is the one good thing about Bradford. It's unique, how many more clubs with the same mostly borning red, white and blue schemes in varying degrees? @28:40 You rating have no consistency though, make comment about other crests not representing the area but middle eastern scimitars for Sheffield United is good? Like what. Reading doesn't have too much going on but Rochdale does? I'm a Villa fan for reference and I agree our badge is a bit meh. I preferred our early 1990-2007 badge

The afc Wimbledon's badge means the legacy of the old version of mk dons. Barnsley's badge has the coat of arms of the town. Barrow's badge is a visual pun. 🐝+🏹 Blackpool's badge has the town's coat of arms Bournemouth's badge represents the top scorer of the club Bradford's badge should change the badge to a literal c0ck Brentford's old badge is a epilepsy of a badge Glad that Burnley's badge changed Cardiff city's badge removed the luck.
