Certified Legendary Thread Winged Guernsey Petition/Letter - #ReturnTheWings: WINGS RETURNED, PERIL RETURNED - JOB DONE!

[wing it]

Just voted for the wings (obviously). I would prefer royal blue at home (and all finals), navy blue away and yellow peril clash, but I think we need to keep it simple at this stage. Get the wings voted in, then push for royal blue.

The guys that started this campaign and forced the club to take notice deserve so much credit. Top work guys!

I agree with you on all counts.

 

[MIKE85]

The club won't accept royal home navy away, they have already said so. Also a dark away guernsey isn't really going to work, as majority of teams have a dark coloured home guernsey (crows, blues, pies, bombers, freo, hawks, dees, port, saints, tigers, swans, dogs) so the only way this thing will get up is if we all vote navy wings and learn to live with the compromise, navy wings beats tri panel everyday!! We need to think about this realistically, not just what we want.

 

[Sammy J]

I'm cool with navy wings at home, royal wings away and peril clash.

So I take it other members have seen the letter?

Might send these in:

I reckon do another lot with that newer eagle head, the one on the lanyard. Send both in. Can't see them reverting to the old logo tbh - that is marketing's call Stocks has nothing to do with it. Still worth a go though!

What new head?

 

[MIKE85]

My mate just got the senior IT job at the eagles, starts pretty soon I think, I'll see if I can get him to hack into the poll and dodge the numbers up so we can't lose!. Not really, but interesting to see if he can get us a bit of inside info over the next few months

That eagle head sucks imo, I hate the current head in one colour.

I'm still diggin' this

 

[MKMatty]

Current eagle head needs the ochre IMO

 

[larrikin]

Current eagle head needs the ochre IMO

Yeah, there's too much detail for monochrome.

 

[Shmiddy15]

Agreed, I think the ochre looks good on the royal and navy, and the peril is just so beautiful I can tolerate the ochre even though it doesn't look perfect.

 

[wing it]

I guess I'm being a little old school, when it was just blue and gold, and it worked so well.
I definitely think the gold jumper needs more blue on the logo. It looks a little stark otherwise

 

[wing it]

Yeah, there's too much detail for monochrome.

I reckon a lack of detail on a footy jumper is no bad thing. The finer detail gets lost in the flurry of an AFL game.

Just start at the monochrome version for ten minutes. It slowly grows on you

stare, I mean

Yeah preferably I'd like to see the old head because it works perfectly in one colour, but I just can't see the club going for it.

It's not that I don't like the single colour concept, but the logo looks s**t in one colour

 

[Boohemian]

I think the current logo would work a hell of a lot better if the "trail" on the left wasn't so long.

[oak79]

My mate just got the senior IT job at the eagles

I think there was 2 IT jobs going - which one did he get?

 

[Sammy J]

When they say return the wings, is it just about getting rid of the tri panel? Or about bringing back the big wings?
