JCDBigBear 10,809 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Dear God, how can anyone kick up a fuss about some relatively minor changes to the crest? It makes the Club name more prominent than the old crest. Now Rangers is at the top, 12 o'clock high instead of starting upside down at 7 o'clock. We haven't crossed a historical Rangers Rubicon with this. We have far more important things to worry about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely agree with everyone that winning again matters the most and that all this means fuck all in comparison but let's hope they happen alongside each other. I agree. The two are almost different issues. After the Ashley debacle and 2012, it is extremely important we work on the brand worldwide. I think we are doing a phenomenal job at that. Just need the gaffer to deliver now.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockwellGers 14,684 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 As a graphic designer I disagree with some of their design decisions. The font is a bit silly, everything is squashed in. I like that Rangers is dead centre now but for me it's not been executed well enough. I've looked at it a few times today and I still don't like it much. Maybe I will tomorrow or next week.

graeme_4 34,350 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 See all this ‘need to worry about what’s happening on the park’ chat, it’s so naive. Gerrard and Wilson aren’t sitting there with Microsoft paint doing it, or paying for it out of the football budget. Marketing, website, logo, brand, commercials, hospitality, match day experience are all sadly lacking - need to bring them up to speed to maximise revenue streams, which benefits us on the park for years to come. No point on the marketing guy sitting on his arse for 12 months until we see if we win the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the first and last letters wouldn’t line up with the adjacent white lines. Make the font slightly smaller and boom, two birds killed with the one stone.

Prso's headband 35,338 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 99% of posters on here wouldn't give a fuck if we'd just lifted the title. The point being we'd rather see progress on the park than our own fucking font which is just ridiculous. The past few months it seems everything the club is just pushing more fans away from backing the board. After all this extensive consultation we've been told has happened I've yet to see an overwhelming majority agree with anything the club has done since March. Yet we're told this is what supporters want... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, number of fans involved, location and which supporters clubs? MyGers or the brand evolution? MyGers would have had about 150-190 fans in various focus groups always advertised on the club website. Plus I think it was almost 10k who responded to the fan survey. Ibrox and in Belfast were the locations. I’m not naming the RSCs but included majority A+ clubs but a few smaller ones too who applied. Brand evolution had 2 specific focus groups that met with Stadion before Braga at home (also advertised on the website). Marketing also met with a Range of fans when they were doing a sort of Marketing Audit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was involved in a subset which was probably around 30 individual fans from various supporter backgrounds so that is was a decent spread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
