Posted on: Thu 04 Aug 2011

Check out the video of the history behind our current club crest, and the plans to have fans choose a new one.

Take a look at each of the badges below and the galleries depicting how they would look on merchandise and around the stadium.

Also I find it rather odd that they haven't given the option to keep the old badge.

The QPR crest is the three Horseshoes. Everything else is just "Fluff" - Some good fluff. Some truly atrocious fluff - The current being gaudy, pretentious - and absolutely non-QPR

I understand the copyright issue when they changed from the horseshoes. Don't know why they couldn't come up with some "Derivative" that would include them and make it QPR.

But at least they have been given a choice. Ours is one of the worst designs I've ever seen on anything.
