Newcastle United Reveal Three New, Extremely Similar Logo Options
28 minutes ago, by Chris
- New Crest Options Released: Newcastle United has unveiled three new, highly similar logo options for an official supporter vote, advancing their long-running crest overhaul project.
- Design Evolution, Not Reinvention: The club emphasizes an evolutionary approach to the crest update, ensuring all three designs retain core elements like the striped shield, seahorses, castle, lion, and club name ribbon, despite earlier leaked designs causing backlash.
- Supporter Voting and Fan Reaction: Eligible supporters, including season ticket holders and members, are casting votes for their preferred design, though many fans express disappointment with the similarity of the options and a preference for a retro badge.
Newcastle United have entered the next phase of their long-running crest overhaul, with three redesigned badge options now landing in supporters' inboxes for an official vote.
The move is the latest step in a process that began back in 2024, when the club first signalled that their famous badge - unchanged since 1988 and the oldest in the Premier League - needed an update for the digital age. An early leaked design caused plenty of backlash last year, but the club has since stressed this is meant to be an evolution of the crest, not a full reinvention, and all three of the new options keep the core elements fans would expect: the striped shield, the twin seahorses, the castle turret topped by a lion holding the flag, and the sky-blue ribbon bearing the club name.
The Three Options for the new Newcastle United Crest
All options for the Newcastle United New Logo revert the current logo to the "digital age". They simplify the current logo, with fewer details and more sophisticated colors.
The options are extremely similar, with only the horse being different apparently. It is not a real choice, but rather a "fake" vote for us.
Many are disappointed with the club's options, and rather want a retro badge back. However, according to the club, 85% wanted the current crest with some changes - the results are not what many wanted, apparently.
What Happens Next
Eligible supporters - season ticket holders, Mags and Mags+ members, and fans who attended multiple women's fixtures at Gateshead International Stadium in 2025/26 - are being asked to pick their preferred design as part of the club's official poll. Newcastle have promised full transparency throughout the process, with the winning design expected to be confirmed before it eventually replaces the current crest.
What do you think of the three very similar options? Let us know in the comments.
Singapore Switch Kit Supplier Mid-Tournament
The Singapore national team debuted new Adidas kit during their final group stage match of the 2026 ASEAN Championship. In their previous three matches of the tournament, "The Lions" were using Nike.
This switch occurred mid-tournament because the sponsorship agreement between the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) and Nike only officially expired on July 31, while the new deal with Adidas took effect immediately.
