Has anyone heard the news about the new crest and the name reverse back to the Warrington Wires ????

Back to the Warrington Wires? Surely back to Warrington RLFC, with the nickname The Wire.

Warrington Wires is ridiculous.......

Lol

Wigan are reverting to Wigan RLFC the pies.

Does anyone have a pic or can anyone describe what it looks like?

From the look of the crest, it is staying Warrington Wolves with a recognition in the logo that we are called "The Wire".

Anyone who posts it will be banned, just a head up.

Round, triangle, square, shield? Primrose and Blue, black and white?

Oh right, haha, fair enough!

Not because of copyright and stuff, just because it's terrible.

Is it that bad? Oh Christ! hope it's just an idea...

You only have less than 2 hours to wait, but I like it personally. It's definitely different, but it'll grow on people I reckon.

Not sure why all the secrecy its on the warrington guardian website ???

We can only hope.

Think of a bad shape, a wolf that looks like a transformer, a crap colour scheme and a crap font that doesn't even have the word Warrington inside the logo. That's just for starters.

If someone came up with that at the end of a design course, they wouldn't be marked very highly for it.

Haha, it's on the club website now. It is genuinely awful, but at least it says "The Wire" on it. Small steps.

I quite like it. It reminds me of an NRL badge. It would be good as well if they could incorporate the
date of club formation.

its simplified I'll say that! to be fair Its what a number of sporting clubs have done with various logo's. It does makes sense....

like I said in an earlier post the rhinos badge is the best because its relatively simple. The opposite of that is the Wigan Crest which is not instantly recognisable without the Words Wigan warriors underneath it and also its choc full of detail.

its ok I suppose.... but what are the three zig zag lines and the little love hearts for ....unnecessary for me...it looks a bit unfinished !!!! but I'll get used to it......

we've more serious matters at hand than a badge....

Oh my dear god. It's taken me 278 years to get used to having a wolf on the badge, a fluffy grey sheepdog as the mascot and being surrounded by people calling us the wolves as though we're from Birmingham, and now this.

Genuinely awful. In fact it gives awful a bad name. I'm off to the loft to get my old vladivar kit out and pretend this is happening to someone else.

to answer my own question the zig zags = "Wire" obviously!! and the love hearts stand for the 7 clubs that formed the Warrington rugby club..........an underwhelming tribute for me...

Don't think its too bad personally.

You're stuck with it now so better get use to it.

I'm not crazy about it, but I don't think it is terrible. The only things that bother me are that there are two different blues and, overall, the logo isn't predominantly primrose and blue. I had thought this was so that it stands out on shirts better, but that has never been an issue before.

EDIT: Just seen that the logo they are using on the official Twitter has blue in place of that steel grey. This is an improvement, and I hope they use that on the shirts, but it still needs more primrose.

Not an easy change for anyone with a tattoo of the previous one. Could have just added the wire to the old one. The wolf doesn't look 'ard enough either

Looks OK to me.
