  Random question, but does anyone have any idea of any companies who have designed football team emblems? It's just one of those things you see designed all the time (and sometimes quite badly) but you never know who they're designed by. Only example i know of is Juventus' emblem which was re-designed by Interbrand a few years ago.

  Wouldn't they be done in-house? Most of them are quite old.

  Not sure? possibly true. I know Liverpool have a company called Liverpoolfc.tv which does their tv channel and website. I went there for a day. I know that Arsenal, Fulham, Aston Villa, Wigan and Chelsea to name a few have had re-designs in recent years

  Most English football teams crests/logos have evolved over a good few years. All of them have since had a bit of "professional" treatment over the last 20 years or so by all sorts of companies.

  Man Utd famously went from this...
  

  

  To this...
  

  

  ...when they were made a plc.

  Personally (and liveforever may disagree!!), but Man U should have the right to the boat on the logo as Old Trafford sits on the edge of The Quays?

  • yeah it does make more sense. city should have B of the Bang on their's haha– hitsuji1/2

    lol tha same B thats being taken down next week ?– liveforever2/2

  to be fair, it's quite misleading. but i guess it's clever as a selling tool. it suggest success haha. they have a good marketing team.

  One of my faves (from a design point of view) was the minimalist "owls" logo from the 80's

  

  • it's pretty sweet but i quite like the one they have now. that's quite minimalistic– hitsuji1/2

    Nah, they have mixed a minimalist geometric form with a traditionally shaped shield.– stem2/2
