Basically that. No idea how we got there or why we've done it.

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

Not a fan. Over complicates something that was already simple and clean in design.

The mock ups they've done of it on this seasons shirt look dreadful.

It ain't that bad. Looks quite smart, I preferred the black one tbh. Not like it has completely changed it's just basically got a white circle around it.

Not sure why we felt a need to change our badge in the first place.

However, everybody hates change. I don't think I've seen a single club change their badge recently and the supporters be happy but it gets forgotten about in the couple of weeks.

The badge ain't terrible and it'll be a grower for sure. How many times do you see someone say "Urgh, I HATE the new facebook layout, bring back the old one", all for people to forget what the old one looked like a week later.

The major change explains that one. All the new designs had 'Milton Keynes Dons' instead of 'MK Dons'.

My biggest issue has been how we've got there as I have eluded to multiple times elsewhere.

No proper public consultation other than some conversations with SB which were not part of the formal minuted meetings, Neil couldn't even give any explanation to the meaning or the value of changing the badge other than it's in a circle (very informative) and whilst it has been presented as a decision of the ST holders initially it was highlighted that it was a decision of stakeholders too.

If there had been a proper process into the development of the badge I'd be more accepting. But nah just dumped it into a white circle so it is an easier cheap sticker for Castore to put on their kits.

Me making a joke about what marketing nonsense the club could have come up with to at least pretend there was some effort made
-As part of Milton Keynes celebrations becoming a city a round badge also provides a nod to the city of roundabouts.

Neil Hart in May
- But it also nods to something closer to home, Milton Keynes’ iconic roundabouts. It’s a subtle tribute to the city’s unique identity, woven seamlessly into the heart of our new look.

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