The 4 of Us Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Well learned summat today. Here’s me thinking it was Neptune’s trident. Not quite sure how the grammar school rebrand translates as Salford being a Superleague Club or in fact a club that is anything to do with sport. In fact the Red Devils on the logo now seem completely at odds with the badge itself. http://www.wiganstpats.org Producing Players Since 1910 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I really, really like the idea and really like the idea of the traditional badge but that just doesn't work at all. The willow looks awful and totally out of place. Substitute that for a devil, particularly as it actually says Red Devils, and it would look so much better.

Tre Cool Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 The idea's ok. The execution's awful. Cheap and amateur looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanaBull Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Initial thought was it looks like something a local council would pay a consultancy that knows nothing of the locality millions of quid to end up choosing something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave T Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 If it had a Devil instead of the tree it would be decent. Instead it is horrible. Truly terrible - who the hell signed it off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanaBull Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 So if they had come back with something akin to the Toronto logo (one of the most inspired parts of the whole Toronto operation, IMO), would Salford fans feel shortchanged by something more simplistic?

So it's heavy symbolism - even heavy-hearted symbolism perhaps! Salford leave their old ground and The Willows weep. Pass me a hanky, please...

Truly terrible - who the hell signed it off? Yup have to agree, its the tree that just seems out of place. With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure all the symbolism is very well conceived but, ho'way, this is 2017. The modern world, the age of Aquarius etc etc. Just who tf do they expect to inspire with this insipid effort? It's suposed to be a rough tough rugby league side...aka the red devils, not some protected wood near Hebden Bridge. FFS! Forever in our shadow, forever on your mind.
