Liverpool do it I know that, but their badges are pretty iconic. This is

I think Utd do the same. They have their established badge + a crest for stuff like suits etc.

May be going over the top with this but after the season we're having due to covid when the club asked fans to donate some or all of their season ticket money to help the club ,and the club to then mess about with such an emotive issue as the club badge is frankly taking the p*ss

It does look rubbish tbh but I'm not that bothered

So which of the seven dwarves is it modelled on?

Dopey designed it that’s for sure

Why's it got cat ears? Absolute rubbish. Shows they're completely out of step with the fans.

The new kit is even worse. Looks like a poor Salford kit.

If it’s not got lions and a castle on, it’s not a Wigan badge. What a clanger! Leeds United released a new club badge a few years ago and fan power destroyed it in a matter a days.

ATEOTD it’s our club, the fans will be judge and jury.

That new badge is very amateurish. It should remain the 'Ancient & Loyal' .

I feel quite passionate about this.

I think our current badge is iconic, worn by the greats through the years. Passed on from generation to generation. It’s an honour to wear that badge.

I always liked that we had a classy traditional badge and not a silly cartoon rhino or wolf.

Really hope it’s not a permanent change.

Where have you seen the Kit?

I think you will find the vast majority of supporters are bothered.

Yup

For the club to even considered getting rid of the badge showing the Ancient and Loyal Coat of Arms of the old Wigan Borough which was granted a Royal Charter in 1662 is sacrilege.

Is nothing of our local and national history sacred any more?

But, as the news of the change in the club badge has not been on the club website, is somebody mischief making?

I wish they were, and if they are they've gone to great lengths to pull it off

What an absolute pile of sh!!t. I wont be buying any kit with that crap on it. Looks like a child has won a competition to draw it. No doubt been done to look like an NRL badge. Stop this debacle before it starts.

It’s bizarre. The video of the players reactions is quite awkward they are all clearly thinking ‘wtf’. Hopefully by 7pm it will make more sense. Surely it can’t just simply be that they are changing the badge.

If it is a new badge, hope you make a better job of it than we did with our 80's Thundercat.

If they do move to this badge (which I’m sure will be met with disdain from most fans over the age of 9),it’ll be right up there in the bright ideas department at Wigan,no doubt filed alongside the “we will make millions from taking a game to London/Australia.

I just don’t see the need for a change it’s very shaky ground when messing with badges as the club may find out by 7.03pm

They should know already going off posts on social media. Our marketing team seem totally inept. They regularly post incorrect details and dates of fixtures, and now this. Even the happy clappers that would normally buy a cherry and white coated turd seem to hate it.

They have previous, the bright ideas dept. with the "Riddle" merchandise not so long ago.

You should see the kit as well. Mainly red and black stripes. Proper Salford.

I’ll wait and see what it’s being used for before getting too annoyed. If it’s actually a new club badge replacing the crest on the playing shirts, then I’m absolutely staggered! Hopefully that isn’t the case.

I got shown this travesty of a badge and the kit at the same time about a month ago.

Ghastly effort!
