**** I hate when they say wanky shit like
"Our aim was to create an identity that acknowledges everyone who plays a part in one of the most exciting leagues in the world."
Yes it perfectly represents all of the lions who play in the EPL.

PL, please. We would hate to imply that the league was in any way connected to England!

 

[Craegus]

No, surely not.

Shop, yes. But it's an official one, not just speculative.

It is just a proposal for how the patch could look (thus why on the design companies website and not part of the official announcement). The official patch has not been released yet and will be along with other elements as the new season gets closer (as per the Premier Leagues press release).

 

[Mr Eagle]

What a terrible placeholder...

 

[Dylan8]

Why bother putting it out if it's a placeholder? Why even have a placeholder?

It isn't a placeholder, it is a concept that the company came up with, it may end up being the actual badge, but it was not announced with the logo package so it is likely just an example that the company put forward for a potential design, the same goes for the logo on the ball as they used this years ball over next years which is supposedly this one (with the new logo of course):

Where would I post soccer concepts. I don't really want to start another portfolio.

On my phone but here's Sydney FC Champions League shirt

 

[Dylan8]

Cool. Looks straight out of 2001.

On my phone but here's Sydney FC Champions League shirt

Absolute shite. Brought to you by Puma the same people that brought the 2007 Brisbane piss clash. It looks like a training kit.

 

[Dylan8]

I reckon it's real tasteful, and I love how the shirt number takes precedent over the sponsor.

 

[Freight Train]

I agree with both Dylan8 and Klim - it looks classy and old school but it also looks like a training kit.

 

[Klim]

I would like it sort of like this. A minimalist approach.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Nah that's a pretty good shirt I say. It's a bit empty looking but I think people are used to seeing A-League sides have garish logos and plastered words all over the shirt. I think this works, and the number is just throwing people into a training attire mindset. I think the sponsor is a cracker too, I would love for that to stay on.

 

[aCunningPlan]

I just don't like it because I'm not a big fan of round collars on football kits, just seems like a t-shirt.

Perth 20-years-of-QBE-sponsorship shirt for tomorrow vs Brisbane.

Many things wrong with this one.
Shit template
Sydney FC colour
Unreadable '20-years' type
Wrong 'Insurance' font (unless there's some SGI-shit change that hasn't been rolled out)
Ordinary graphic and interplay with the purple, just going to look like an indigo blur on the gut
No connection with anything PGFC from the last 20 years, aside from this exaggerated and derivative pinstripe device that was only ever in the first -vertical- stripes

I can't see purple shorts and socks saving it either.

That's so shit.

Should have been a throwback to the original piece of shit we wore, at least it might have some meaning.

 

[chibimatty]

What a meaningless design for the Glory. Could have thrown back to their first QBE kit, the black and white Umbro one. It's ugly and weird, but hey, that's the beauty of throwbacks...

I still have this one in my cupboard somewhere...

 

[Fizzler]

I urge people to post pictures of their shirts on this site:

Macron have made class throwback kits ala Lazio but this is really bad. Its a 50/50 for me.

 

[Silent Alarm]

That's ****in shit.
