Leeds United ... the gift that keeps on giving.

They've just unveiled their new club badge

Looks like some kind of nazi propaganda poster from WW2

Can't imagine where they got the design from

My first thought when I saw it was how much it reminded me of the "quenelle." One of the above pictures confirmed my impression.

It is Leeds we are talking about, right? No need to look any further than this then:

That is absolutely awful. As the article states - like a bloody video game badge.
The George Weah’s cousin tweet is particularly enjoyable to me.

Gary Lineker has tweeted that it gives him heartburn just looking at it.

I wonder why?

It's enough to give their fans heartburn.

The best part of this is that Leeds have had to pay some coke addled graphic designer a shitload of cash to come up with this. & an even bigger shitload to have it focus grouped by some consultancy outfit. My bet is they'll have to do the whole thing over when it gets hammered for potentially right-wing/nationalist overtones. They may as well just have gone the whole hog:

Oh for **** sake. Is there a petition to keep the new design going? Bet it would win.

A pair of crossed riding crops would make that a proper badge.

It's given me heartburn laughing at it. Next up is a proposed name change to Gaviscon United

Maybe it's actually meant to depict someone using their elbow - a true homage to the history of Leeds!
