Now this is definitely a good one ... I like it (wonder if I should get one even though the wife would kick my @rse )

Does that mean Jay's staying?

I really liked it at first view. Then someone posted the up close shot and now I like it even more.

Our badge is our badge. Whether you like it or not it shouldn’t be tampered with. It’s part of our identity.

When the badge was changed to the current one there was no consultation with fans at all it was just changed, no reason why it can’t be changed back or a different one made.

No reason at all. But then that badge should be the same across all our strips.

Agree with that, but while it is the badge it should remain the badge and not be tampered with.

I know you’ll never be convinced, but for me the badge is the crest, not the colours. I wouldn’t want the crest changed or messed around with, just the colours so it suits the kit.

I don’t think the light blue background / yellow border suits all kits, especially black in this instance.

Personally prefer the old badge with no blue background / yellow border, so suppose we wouldn’t be having this debate if we’d kept that.

No, It need's a splash of colour otherwise it looks like it came out of the photocopier.

Fair enough, that looks crap. I’ll shut up.

What about a clarety badge though? That would be some subtle colour

It's all opinion but I don't like the tonal badges. That badge is our identity right across the world, it should be consistent.

I would be interested to know amongst fans which badge they prefer the present one or the one when Coyle was manager and the one in the nineties.

Maybe the club should ask us which we prefer?

I’m not arguing one badge against the other just that I think that whatever badge you have should always be in the correct colours.

I know why they changed badge. The club were planning to put the old County Borough Coat of Arms back on the shirts in 2009/10 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of winning the title. As it happened, we were promoted and we got worldwide exposure. The club then felt that the coat of arms was recognised across the world so they adapted it and continued with it.

You are right, there was no consultation whatsoever and we’ve seen issues at other clubs, notably Everton, where they have changed it.

I was brought up watching us in the 1960s when we wore the coat of arms and I think I prefer this current adapted badge. But I appreciate that a lot of people don’t and I don’t think it should have been changed without proper consultation.

The one in the 90’s was the one which was designed circa 1974/75. The club had a competition to design a new crest. Can’t rememember what the prize was, possibly a season ticket? Tony will probably remember.

Thanks for clarifying Tony I’d like to see some proper consultation maybe before next season on its popularity ( this new badge) as I think it could be a real boost to the coffers to get some designs and a badge that the majority of fans agree on.

There is a reason the old shirts go for so much on eBay so they must have done something right in the nineties especially the Ribero kits etc.

Great design as well, mind boggling why it was changed into this old school one which makes the club look ancient.

Bring this back and look like a South American club.

It was introduced in 1973 but not worn on any kit until 1975/76 and then only the away kit. First worn on the home kit once the shirt with the big V was replaced.

I wonder whether you would have a chance of getting it changed now. We have a major problem in any case in that we don't always use the correct badge, too many examples around the ground. Makes us look like a really unprofessional outfit.

I think that there are plenty of example of brands adjusting the colour of their logo, which is effectively the same thing. A good brand logo is identifiable whatever the colour.

I’m not really a fan of the current badge, though I do prefer it to the previous one, which was looking dated and over complicated. Simple, identifiable and adjustable in colour to suit the kit, would be better to me.

Last season’s top four and Arsenal have all got different colouring on their badges, home and away. For me it works, though it’s all about opinion. I don’t agree though that the colour must stay the same to keep something identifiable.

It's personal choice and so many Burnley fans can't remember using the old coat of arms so I can fully understand why they would definitely prefer the one that was ditched in 2010. And I couldn't agree more that there should have been consultation before there was any such change.

At least I don't do tattoos and didn't have to get another one done

I got the 70s, 80s,90s,00s crest tattooed on my arm when I was very young. Had arms like twigs so when the tattooist came to writing 'Burnley Football Club' on the banner he could only fit on 'Burnley FC'

After seeing the close up of the collar and the claret on one side I thought the shirt could do with a claret stripe on the other sleeve. On closer inspection there is a matching claret stripe on the other sleeve, probably more evident in the flesh. Prefer this to the new home strip.

Some strange bits on it and I don't really like black kits, but this looks better than the home kit for me.

I like it and will buy for our son & grandchildren

Decent other than the gambling logo on the front and the sleeve. Why it needs to be in both I don’t know.

You can have two different shirt sponsorship deals on your shirts, one front and one sleeve. We’ve just opted to go for the same company for both.

A lot of clubs have gambling logos. Sign of the times and clubs can't afford not to have a sponsor.

Actually looks really nice on the match highlights!

Gabriel just shores from the shoulder for Arsenal. Made me think of this kit.

Like the home kit I don't think it's a coincidence there's a nice visual distinction between what we think is the shoulder and the arm using the claret and blue piping here.

Much, much nicer than the home shirt design.

Looking on the club’s website it seems Mr Dyche is pleased with the new away kit.

“ We also have our new away kit available online and in-store, which the Gaffer has hailed his favourite kit since his time at Turf Moor”

Mine arrived in the post this morning nice shirt, and will get its 1st outing tomorrow at the Pub.
