Does this mean that City Cabs will recruit a raft of new taxi drivers on huge salaries who'll subsequently refuse to pick customers up? .....and then get loaned out to other taxi companies at great expense. It will also turn out that one of them can't actually drive and another has drug and drink driving convictions! |

Let's face it, ours is so fucking shit anyway, it probably already comes from a generic U11's sunday league DIY template, where you simply pop in relevant words. I'd let the cab company have it, and get the attached back. Attachments:

One oatcake user was threatened with legal action for using stoke badges on his driving school car, just after we got promoted if I remember right. Don't know if he still posts? Not sure. He was a massive Stoke fan. Real nice guy. He used to go home and away with his Mrs. Not sure but after Scholes called him in he was that pissed off he stopped going. I think Yeah this was muckakev, don't think he posts on here anymore. Recall he was teaching Kenwyne at the same time as me, think be passed his test the week before I did. Kev was Stoke mad and travelled everywhere but said he was done giving the club any more money after the manner in which they threatened him with legal action. |

We ain't Sunderland or Grimsby so let them keep that. We should return to our traditional logo which we can be proud of.

It's a grey area. Logos and brands get hijacked and altered all the time. Some copyright owners don't care, others are more than happy to take legal action. There was a case in Nottingham a few years back where a car dealer blatantly used a logo from World Wrestling Entertainment in the USA. They had to alter all of their signs, vans, stationery and so on - WWE have absolutely zero tolerance for anything like that. Vince has ruled with an iron fist on the copyright's since he took over in the 80's. They're now in the process of trying to get the copyright again for WCW pay per view names that AEW wanted, even though Vince has no intention of using them. so why did Vince use the WWF logo? |

I remember some time ago there was a guy on here used the Stoke badge to advertise his driving school and he was told to remove it. You’ve a good memory it was years ago.........it was Kev from Stoke Driving School, he doesn’t teach anymore. Massive Stoke fan and a great guy, although I won’t go into to much detail, he was very upset with the heavy handed stance the club took on the matter. |

It's a definite copy. These sorts of things go on all the time and businesses/people are taken to court for much much less. Paypal vs Pandora (Paypal won and Pandora had to change their logo):  Goliath doesn't always win. deadmau5 vs Disney (deadmau5 got to keep his):  A lot of companies get away with copying big brands though. I see shops outside the UK mimicking famous brands, especially when it comes to fast food. |

I thought the whole thing of going away from the city crest was so we could brand-erise the logo.
City cabs could be in hot water here.
