Finners, that article is dated 2015 I think. Would love it to be true though.

Yes I noticed. But we need to talk about this. It's plain stupid to be sidelined voluntarely.

Procentages are quite close what I expected.
Strong emotions.

In a strange way - although we miss out on the branding and the advantage of using the city name we remain true to our identity. That means we don't piggy back onto the city from a location that - in 1892 - was outside the city boundary and our symbolic use of the Tower reflects one of the most significant events in the history of the area (unlike, for example, the absence of any railway reference in United)

Though it's interesting that City and United both have the sailing ship..without any bitching. So if someone wanted to make a good case and avoid Kopite whinging there is it.

From 1910, years before WWI.

erm, cheesy...why?

Its the citys logo, cant really have a go at that lot for painting it red to make it their own and then go and do the exact same thing. Getting a blue one would just come off as us ripping off their logo (even if thats not the case).

Just use a nice generic silver one or something thats not a massive part of the badge or kit.

Looks a bit sad that. Any chance it could be moved near the new ground, or is it all protected and that?

You could work for the council with ideas like that!

Leave it where it is!

Could build a replica though...

An interesting article which certainly has me rethinking my initial No vote - the pictures in the article are tastefully done also and I could go with something like that - but certainly not at the expense of the tower or NSNO.

Clearly im not from Liverpool, but as an Everton fan that bird makes me puke, its on their shirt and it reminds me of them.

Let them keep it, I dont want it.

This is it really, its got too much to do with them. Plus if they hadnt been using it would this thread have come into fruition? A non-issue imo and we dont need the liver bird.

 

[ROBERTOMARTINEZ]

Yes ofcourse mate. But voluntarely giving them the edge on this one is just daft imho. EFC is the senior club in the city of Liverpool this should be no brainer...we should be ruthless.

Are you being serious? "We should be ruthless", that's an incredible thing to say for something so pointless.

If they can take and own the symbol of the city they absolutely can sabotage our stadium plans in the docks. Just watch.

Finners, this is a dumb statement, even by GOT standards

Seriously mate, the two things are completely unrelated.
