Did they let children design it? It looks awful.

I think it's illegal to own and operate an elephant in this country without the proper licences and stuff.
And you need a big shovel.

Wanderers have confirmed that the club’s new kit will see the return of the elephant logo after an absence of 40 years, plus the town motto “supera moras.”
The elephant appeared on various kits between the 1920s and 1970s, including the four successful FA Cup finals.
The town crest, translated to “overcome delays,” will appear on the new kit, created by new sponsors Macron.
Richard Gough, head of commercial for Bolton Wanderers, said: “When we looked at the elephant design from down the years, the hand-made nature of the badges from that era meant there were no two alike.
“Without a single reference point, we had the opportunity to update the design for the 21st century in such a format to be trademarked as our own and for it to be more easily reproduced both in print and on fabrics.”

i'm happy the elephant is back but i would have preferred a more traditional type of badge, something similar to the official town crest or one of the older badges (1958 for example).
the one in Hipsters post would have been much better

I'm also confused.
I mean, to anyone else... its just an elephant.
We know its the BWFC logo, but unless something relating to 'Bolton Wanderers football club' is on it... how are people supposed to know?

I guess the badge will stay the same and the elephant might appear over the top of it like the 1958 badge, or maybe they will put the elephant on the sleeve or on the opposite side to the badge.

Its Gartside's way of redeeming himself, you should all go back to kissing his feet now.

When I read the thread title I expected it to be about a certain fair-weather fan who had yet again temporarily switched allegiances and then come crawling back. I know ex-models can put on the pounds once they're out of training but ....
