Neil Hart has done a lot of good, but this is a massive cock up. Waiting for replies to be turned off social media posts soon


Be nice if the club published the vote count wouldn’t it……


Let's be honest, it was the best out of the 3.

To Corner's point, its clear we wanted to include our full club name on the badge, as opposed to just 'MK Dons'.

I don't think there are any clubs that shorten their name on their badge, but I may be mistaken. Obviously we were unique in that aspect and it wasn't a bad thing, but clearly from an identity point of view there is strong reasoning to have your full name.

It really isn't that much of a change so I don't particularly care. The dodgy photoshop of the new badge on old kits is so hilariously bad :lol: :lol: who thought that was a good idea.

Quickly proved myself wrong by seeing Burton's badge.

64.8% voted for a change, not necessarily this badge. It could be all of those votes were for this badge, but I think it is telling that Neil only quotes how many opted for a change rather than this change.

To me this badge was done and dusted, the vote was never for genuine consultation. There was never clarity on how the vote would work, they could just manipulate the numbers to pass it off as a supporter led decision and a cheap win for Neil Hart

Just seen, how bizarre.

Have they done that to try and show that it looks good once on the kit? If so, it has the opposite affect as I didn't mind it until I saw the picture of Leko.

Seeing it directly against our old badge kinda hurts. The old one does actually look so much nicer. There is too much white space on the new one and makes it looks quite amateur. The kind of badge you'd expect to see the NL and below.

Sorry, I meant a shortened name (like a nickname). Those either have their initials or no name at all.

Evidently a lot of people judging by the wider reactions.

Why are you moaning at people moaning for the sake of moaning?
