The one we have now looks like a Tesco Carrier Bag ...bring back the camel Every time I see it I know I have seen it somewhere before, I always think it must have been on a packet of crisps, but you are right the colour palette for the red, blue and white are straight from Tesco, and appropriately I suppose the kindest thing you can say about it is that it looks cheap and cheerful!

NO BLUE
NO BLACK
ADD KNOT AND/OR DATE TO TASTE
SORTED! Like it. I'm not sure about the shape, but I do like the idea of moving away from the traditional shapes. What about a badge in the shape of a bottle kiln, it would definitely be unique to us? Bottle kiln shaped badge? Now there's an idea; SC and/or 1863 in the 'hanging loops ' ?

I don't mind the blue, no offence but I think that straight up red and white one looks terrible. I'd even prefer black with it than just red and white.

Sorry, but that's terrible. Poor version of Nottingham Forest (which is also terrible).

People seem to be basically describing the crest which Stoke Load & Proud uses?....

Sorry, but that's terrible. Poor version of Nottingham Forest (which is also terrible). Except this was from 1968 and designed by a Stoke player (David Herd) Don't know the Stoke Loud & Proud badge, any good?

Be quite happy to see a reworked version of the 80s one, with bottle kiln and Staffordshire. Smartest badge we've had by a stretch.

#1 is good, minus the black, and kilns don't have curved tops. #2, they're not kilns, they're power station cooling towers (think Rugeley!)

Graphic design - deceptively simple. Badly done with ease.

Change the shape to that one or similar, keep our colours and current simple layout, change the club name and year and change STOKELONA to VUF. Done. Unfortunately I'm shit with editing images and don't have photoshop, otherwise I'd do it myself.

At risk of upsetting Lakeland, a plumber has just been round to mend my boiler with the city of Stoke-on-Trent badge tattooed on his arm. By far the best badge we've had!!

Graphic design is intellectual problem solving through type, colour, composition and meaning. And iconic representation as necessary, obv. A great graphic designer could design a timeless classic badge for their worst enemy/team. But they wouldn't accept the job in the first place of course.

Anyone checked out the Stoke City image at beginning of MOTD2?
Bottle kiln, knot, just needs name/initials and date, simple.

Real poor. Especially the one with black and blue on it - didn't his mother ever tell him "black and blue never do"?!
