Thanks Matt. I sent it to Everton FC as a proposal for 2014/15 crest design (selected one is really terrible imo). but they said that 10.000+ fans voted for it and they wouldn't change it.
This is so much better than the version they've picked. It is appalling, it looks like some terribly designed badge from the 70s. I thought this seasons crest was bad but imo the one they selected for next year is far worse.
One the other hand this would be an excellent replacement. Although I really don't see what was so wrong with the original one that they and to replace it in the first place.
thanks DANUFC. They needed to modernized their crest (mostly to make it more simpler and to place all the elements in more optimized way) but they done bad job and people was furious. Then they came up with that design that indeed looks like bad design from 70's.
There were just three changes that the old crest needed - the removal of the 1878 and Everton script, and a reduction in the size of the scroll and motto to make it the same width as the shield.
I think present crest (13/14 season crest) concept is fine, just poorly made (especially the tower). if present crest was designed well, I don't think people will complain and asking that motto and the wreaths to be back again. now it is too crowded.
