Worst badge

Watching the Fulham vs Sunderland match tonight, and my view is that the Fulham badge is simply devoid of anything of any merit or belonging to the location or community of where the club is / comes from

Putting aside the recent shockers (Leeds !!) what do you think is the worst club badge ?

Appreciate that many clubs (Charlton included) have had a few different badges - so feel free to pick a few from the same club if you want - obviously pics would be great !!

    And whoever decided on this was obviously getting it for a friend.

    Been told this, but would like a second opinion

    I call Arsenal and West Ham's current badges 'cartoon badges.' They look ridiculously childish to me. West Ham's has to be the worse though simply because they have written London on it. Mind you, at least they realise that people consider them so irrelevant that they don't know where they are. It helps away fans to plan their route, so fair enough I suppose ;-

    Otherwise I've always thought Watford's to be bad. It's supposed to be a Hertfordshire stag or elk but it looks like a moose.

    Also, why do Shrewsbury now have three little lions? Why do Chelsea and Millwall have lions? I asked my ten year old son what kind of stupid club has a lion on it's badge when there are no lions in London. He replied 'but England have lions on their badge' which I thought was a fair point (although I did explain that the lions have a history going back to when a standard with three gold lions was carried into battle to inspire the troops).

    Should clubs and countries have animals on their badges that do not represent their territory or history? I think Chelsea should put a dog on their badge as it was thanks to a dog that the club was formed in the first place.

    In a similar attempt to recognise Arsenal's history I think they should have this as a badge:

    Prestons badge, also Hull's badge, are shit.

    Overly fussy badges like Barnsley and Bristol City also annoy me, they are essentially town emblems.

    As "wisdom and courage" is the translation - I'm sure KM will soon fix that.

    I don't know about "worst" but this one is pretty crap on a number of levels.
    I give you Dungannon Swifts' badge:

    image

    So, first, what has a horseshoe got to do with anything? Second, I guess, maybe, that Dungannon once had a castle but I doubt it looked anything like that. Third, and finally, according to the RSPB, swifts are a sooty brown colour and look black in flight. Was their "swift" designed by the same person who gave our "robin" mascot yellow legs? I'm hoping @NornIrishAddick can assist by explaining these important issues.

    I quite like the town crest used as a badge, but it is a bit "lazy", so I do appreciate what you are getting at Sam. I agree with the OP that badges with just initials are crap, like Leeds and Luton in the 70s. But this contemporary baby must be fairly high up the list...

    The guy below had the Fulham badge tattooed on his back as a Christmas, only for Fulham to change it to the current design and the end of the same season.

    This little monstrosity deserves a mention. It looks like one of those crap find-the-word things you used to get on "The Young Soldier" puzzle page, crossed with a figure that's fallen off a toby jug - note the huge belly and the heels on the "boots"...

    Pick any A league club badge here. Perth glory, yes, that’s the name, my local team have a shite badge. <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/5000498/uploads/FileUpload/db/07c1a030c2bf211c261635d99f71f6.jpeg"
    They all seem to have a football at the main theme here. A lot of imagination used by the Australians.
