The Wasps were relegated from the Scottish Championship in 2015/16 but fared better in the third tier last time out, finishing second. He’s totally air-kicked this, right? Maybe the Romanian title chasers are trying to lure opponents into a false sense of security. However, the attempt to market the club globally upon their move to Stratford – and removal of Boleyn Castle from the badge – is so cynical, so blatant, that it feels as if LONDON should be followed by the word (HONEST).

Or is that what Chelsea were going for?Īlternatively, the king of the jungle may have been distracted in the middle of doing something important. Numerous changes were made in the revamp of an older crest, so there’s no excuse for a supposedly ferocious creature merely looking miffed that an opposition striker has beaten its offside trap.

Unlike the roaring beast that dominated the Blues’ badge from 1986 to 2005, this incarnation of the Chelsea lion is far from intimidating.
