Popular Post Fingman Posted July 14, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 After a lot of lengthy public discussions, a plethora of suggestions and of course a public vote, the Melburnians core leadership is proud to present to you the brand new Melburnians badge as voted by Melbourne City FC fans. The vote was very close, a big thank you to Tesla who spent a fair bit of time going through the votes and culling a number of multi-votes from the same IP addresses on both badge 3 and 4, this has helped us fairly work out which badge was the true winner. Let it be known that although badge 4 came off as victorious by something like 16 votes, because it was still quite close, badge 3 will still be used in some capacity perhaps for stickers, banners etc. Thanks for all having a say and helping us move forward. This is just the beginning of what will be an exciting inaugural year as a supporters group with many more challenges to come. Stay tuned for info on the FFA Cup and of course round 1 and 2 of the season proper in October! Cheers, Melburnians Core 34 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jparaga Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Gonna take into account people suggesting to add the blue stripe instead of just the away strip colours? Or is this final? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elieanid Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 whats done is done and people are never going to be happy even if there is a revote, we need to keep on moving and start organising our selves properly, season isnt far off to start but we have the FFA Cup shortly.....logo/badge has to be moved on for something else now, (congrats to option 4 great design etc etc)....lets keep on moving forward as a terrace because there are bigger things needed to be done: Chants, Match Day Planning, Media, heck even scarves need to be done before FFA Cup so.....lets keep on moving and let build our terrace again! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fentonthescreamingcactus Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 why are people complaining about having the red and white stripes and wanting a blue one, if you look at the badge closely most of it is actually blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jimmy Posted July 14, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Why do people hate red and whit so much? Did you even support the heart?

Do you care about where we came from or are you just interested in the trophies and the oil money? I simply asked if we were going to take into account the added blue stripe since its on our current home kit.. I've been a member the past 3 years I'm not only interested in trophies and oil money only otherwise I wouldn't have stuck around and gone to every game when we have been losing was just wanting to embrace the new changes rather than ignore them.. I know there is sky blue at the top but was just wanting to know if the new stripe was to be added also Edited July 14, 2014 by jparaga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you still want more blue go and buy Manchester city top. This is melbourne city grown on foundation of melbourne heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you care about where we came from or are you just interested in the trophies and the oil money? I wouldn't say these people hate red and white. We've obviously had an influx of new members on here who have come on now that we are Melbourne city, and they feel offended because they see the team as blue and white instead of red and white. Thats why their is this constant attack against the red and white because lets be honest, if Melbourne heart played in a yellow strip as their away top for instance would've that colour be included on yarraside's badge? I know it's different due to the fact we're paying homage to our old red and white but all we can do is educate these people about why the red is on there and whatever they think, they think. Life's about compromise and I think this badge has done really well in doing so but as we have said many times you can't please everyone.

You know, still clinging on too strongly to melbourne heart and not embracing the new club and owners. I disagree with this entirely. I know everyone has differing views on this but to me it's the same club with a nice splash of new paint, and I don't think there's anything wrong with those supporters who feel more connected to the red and white than the new colours, and vice-versa. Lastly, while I appreciate the investment as it'll inevitably help the club develop and push towards a greater future, I honestly could not give a shit about embracing the new owners. They're in it for their own goals and ambitions and I'm in it to support my club and my club only. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's alright, I was just saying I disagreed with it! Personally I feel as though it's more a way to acknowledge our history and respect us fans who were there from the beginning as opposed to merely throwing all of that away and saying "oh, we're Melbourne City now so let's discard everything from the Heart era".

Embee Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) As said in another thread; If the majority of the fans identify with sky blue over red and white then the terrace will adapt and evolve to reflect that. But at this point in time a lot of the feedback we've received is that people identify with Red & White (and fair enough too) and want those colours to take precedent. Clearly there are people that disagree with that, and there always will be, regardless of which colours are most visible. Anyway, it just doesn't seem like a massive issue to me, the priority here is that we turn up and create the best possible atmosphere on match-days.
