Logo still looks crap, and the away jumpers just as much.

What's the red "Cock" jumper for ? Wouldn't you just wear the V ?

It actually doesn't look too bad now, much better than the original picture shown.

According to the North web site, the white jumper with the red rooster is a clash jumper to wear at their own discretion.

The red background with white rooster will be the jumper worn by the junior grades ie. Under 16's and 18's.

I don't mind the logo now, not so sure about the alternative jumpers.

V, normal senior guernsey
Red Cock on white, alternate guernsy
White Cock on Red, normal Jnr (up to U18) guernsey

The V is apparently bolder, it also looks a bit higher on that image which is an improvement on the last few years, as for the other 2, if there has been legal threats I'd rather not comment.

It does look more modern than the first pic of the logo, but it looks like both the away guernsey and the logo are for a Chinese Restaraunt than anything else.

I dont actually mind it. I always like jumper changes never been much of a traditionalist. Hopefully the Bays do a simular jumper with the pouncing tiger, sort of like Brisy with the lion on side.

I fully endorse Psuedo's and SJABC's comment.

The only clash guernsey I will vaguely consider is our 1934 Premiership guernsey and then only to be warn against West and Norwood. We don't clash with anyone else IMO.

The new logo looks good IMO.
I don't think much of the whole guernsey being dominated by the cock though. I am generally against having a picture of an animal as a predominant guernsey design.

Reakon the new logo is very confused.

The modern 'Spiderman' font clashes with the quaint cock.

Just don't sit well.

Clubs have gotta stop letting the girls in the front office do this sort of thing...

:wink:

Wedgie, a lot of people seem to have concluded the legal threats have come from the NAFC despite you never saying this. Can you confirm if this is the case or if it is in fact a third party threatening legal action?

I showed Mrs Hondo and her only comment was that the Rooster looks "angry" :lol:

I still think it looks good, thankfully we at least have the proper logo to comment on .... I'll leave it at that. I am not sold on the Rooster logo on the guernsey I'll see how it looks in the flesh

One big plus WRT the new logo: it doesn't look out of place among the 'traditional' circular '70s era logos. Kind of a shame that some of the other clubs ditched the circles, I reckon.

I was trying to think why it didn't quite look right. That's pretty much summed it up.
