Big yikes in the southern league today #mufc #marseille #premierleague #efl

One of the best games I've been to in years. #Oldham 4-0 #Halifax, May 2025 In Manchester for work; attended what turned out to be one of the greatest #OAFC games of the last 30 years. What an atmosphere, what an opening 12 minutes, what a result! Will always have a soft spot for the Latics now.

Did I just see a #Liverpool fan at Wembley wearing a #PSG cap? #newcastle #NUFC #LFC

Laurent Blanc is Montpellier's all time leading goalscorer. Before becoming a defender, "le Président" was an attacking midfielder who scored 76 goals in 243 appearances for la Pallaide. Blanc went on to play for #Marseille, #Napoli, #Inter and #MUFC, as well as winning the World Cup and Euros.

105. RC Lens With their bold and recognisable colour scheme, Les Sang et Or (the Blood and Gold) create an attractive split shield design. #RCLens acknowledge their proud working class heritage with a miners lamp, similar to #Barnsley and #Schalke. #ligue1 #Lille #PSG #SUFC #BFC #SWFC #Yorkshire

104. #FGRFC Playing it safe. A lion and a unicorn is a tad traditional and boring, but at least we get a cool lime green rarely seen in professional football. Something like a Scottish club's badge here too but I can't quite put my finger on it. #nationalleague #WWFC #WBA #BCFC #BRFC #CCFC #STFC

103. #Scunthorpe Utd 1994-2024 A staggeringly beautiful work of art. Inspires feelings of the days where men were men, and spent their days picking up girders in one hand and smashing them into the faces of their enemies. #SUFC #GTFC #nonleague #HCAFC #LUFC #SWFC #LCFC #NFFC #NCFC #NUFC #BCAFC

#Swansea entered the 1981/82 season - their top flight debut - on the back of 3 promotions in 4 seasons. The mainly Welsh squad of #SCAFC finished 6th, an impressive feat for a club who had been in the Fourth Division as recently as 1978. It remains the club's highest league finish. #CCFC #wales

102. #Carshalton Athletic Delightfully amateur. #CAFC seem to have commissioned an artist who has never witnessed a bird in flight. It's not quite #Cheltenham, but it'll do. #nonleague #SUFC #CTFC #CPFC #AFCW #Sutton #football #Robins #BCFC #STFC #London #premierleague #championship

#Pompey fans considering the visit of table-toppers #Leeds this lunchtime will be dreaming of a repeat of the 6-1 victory Blues inflicted on Peter Reid's side in November 2003. Remarkably, James Milner started that game for #LUFC, and he's still on the books at a Premier League club 21 years later.

101. #Scarborough Exceptional commitment to a lifelike gull and a soul-stirring message. Blows #Brighton, #Torquay and #WSMAFC completely out of the water. #SAFC #BHAFC #TUFC #GTFC #HCAFC #Yorkshire #MFC #LUFC #NUFC #YCFC #SUFC #SWFC #football #soccer #nonleague #nationalleague #premierleague

#Eastleigh 1-1 #Hartepool Drab game with no tempo; couple of decent goals but both teams looked flat. Not much character to the ground, but first hospitality experience was positive! Never had a creme brulée at a match before... #EFC #HUFC #nonleague #nationalleague #saintsfc #afcb #pfc #pompey

100. #Rochdale Are you #Stockport in disguise? A dull badge and a dull nickname for a dull club. Joins the list of forgettable municipal crests. #RAFC #OAFC #SCFC #BWFC #MUFC #MCFC #SCFC #BRFC #BFC #BWFC #PNEFC #LUFC #BCFC #Manchester #HTAFC #SWFC #SUFC #HCAFC #LFC #EFC #AFCF #MFC #CUFC #DCFC

99. #Aberdeen A masterful design. I wish I was an #AFC fan so I could get a tattoo of their "A" as a ball in the net. A tasteful appreciation of the sport in general, acting as a shibboleth to those in the know. #SPFL #Scottishfootball #scottishpremiership #DUFC #DFC #newfirm #Celticfc #rangers

#OTD 1962 Accrington Stanley resigned from the Football League. They were dissolved in 1966 and the phoenix club, formed in 1968, now play in League Two. One of the smallest towns to host a Football League club, #ASFC finished 11th in League One in 2021. #BRFC #BFC #BWFC #MUFC #MCFC #LFC #EFC #RFC

98. Weston-super-Mare While neither the best nor worst seagull in football insignia, #WSMAFC spelling out "Association" is rather quaint. Font looks like a heritage railway poster. In a good way. #BCFC #BRFC #ECFC #PAFC #TUFC #BHAFC #Seagulls #SAFC #nonleague #weston #Bath #Bristol #Somerset

97. MSV Duisburg Tremendous commitment by die zebras, with the flank of the animal on show in a rather complex depiction. Love a typically German ornate initialism. #duisburg #bundesliga #buli #football #soccer #Fußball #premierleague #zebras #essen #RWE #bochum #vflb

Swindon Town 2-2 Salford City #Swindon go nine unbeaten at home but were wasteful in front of goal and sloppy at the back. County Ground a decent enough atmosphere at times just a shame it's half empty. 39 away fans is the lowest I've seen at an #EFL match, I think. #leaguetwo #SCFC #MUFC

Unsure how much comfort might be provided by this these days #STFC #Swindon #OUFC #Oxford #leaguetwo #championship #premierleague #nonleague #football #soccer

96. #Oldham Beautiful. But we must be in alternative timeline because that badge should rightfully belong to #Sheffield Wednesday. #OAFC #SWFC #SUFC #LUFC #RFC #BWFC #MUFC #MCFC #Manchester #LFC #EFC #HTFC #SCFC #championship #football #soccer #premierleague

Civil Service FC is the only original member of the Football Association still playing the game today. The club compete in the Southern Amateur League Division One, and play in #Chiswick, West London. #AFCW #BFC #Chelsea #FFC #London #footballhistory #soccerhistory #QPR #spurs #AFC #arsenal #CPFC

95. #Farsley Celtic Atrocious. American sports franchise. I feel there's more to the story here, with the club's colours, badge and name changes coinciding with a previous owner being forced out. Still, those gates! Not having it. #nonleague #leeds #LUFC #FCFC #Bradford #BCFC #HTFC #SUFC #SWFC

#Bristol City have spent the last 40 years in the 2nd or 3rd tiers. Each of the past nine seasons has seen a #Championship finish between 8th and 19th. Are #BCFC lowkey the dullest team in England to support? #BRFC #CCFC #SCFC #PAFC #ECFC #STFC #AVFC #PNEFC #BCFC #WWFC #football #soccer

94. #Gateshead More public art. But this depiction of sculpture is bland & unimaginative. I'm sure the town had a rich history before the Angel of the North; they had a Football League club! Paints an uninspiring picture, combined with the athletics stadium. #NUFC #GFC #SAFC #MFC #HCAFC #LUFC

Sir Tom Finney and David Moyes absorbing the Deepdale atmosphere after #Preston North End were crowned Second Division Champions, April 2000. #PNEFC took the following season in their stride, narrowly missing promotion to the #Premierleague by losing to #Bolton in the play off final. #BWFC #EFC

93. #Basildon United One of the more abstract designs, the central image depicts the bronze 'Mother and Child' statue in Basildon town centre. Perhaps they don't quite pull it off, but I admire the intention to accurately communicate the post-war heritage of this new town. #BUFC #SUFC #WHUFC

#OTD 20 years ago #NCFC #ITFC #football #soccer #premierleague #championship #EFL #LUFC #CUFC #THFC #CFC #AFCB #BHAFC #EPL #MUFC #MCFC #PFC #EFC #AFC #PFC #saintsfc #FFC #WFC #RFC #CCFC #PUSB #Norfolk #suffolk

92 badges ranked: 1. #Forest 50 yrs ago #NFFC designed an iconic image that's outlived its contemporary cultural touchpoints, yet remains so disarmingly 1970s. Perhaps it’s that seductive kick of the “R”, or the understated dynamism of the River Trent. Impeccable and faultless. #NCFC #DCFC

"If I were a linesman, I would execute defenders who applauded my offsides." Half Man Half Biscuit, Paintball's Coming Home (1997) #TRFC #LFC #EFC #Liverpool #Birkenhead #MUFC #MCFC #HMHB #Yate

92 badges ranked: 2. #Derby County Vital and vigorous. #DCFC toyed with a roundel, but the simple aggressive ram alone makes a statement. A wonderful image reminiscent of the Futurist art movement. #NFFC #SAFC #NUFC #MUFC #ITFC #QPR #PAFC #LCFC #LTFC #PFC #CCFC #NTFC #MKDFC #AVFC #BCFC #WWFC

In the 1870s players in matches between Scottish pioneers Queens Park and English amateur side Wanderers wore different colour socks to distinguish their identity and position. Surprised modern marketers haven't restored this tradition. #footballhistory #premierleague #QPFC #RFC #CFC #soccer #EFL

92 badges ranked: 3. #Burton Albion The rotund alcoholic! The sublime calligraphy! Yellow and black! A startlingly creative work of originality. #BAFC #NFFC #NCFC #DCFC #PVFC #SCFC #CAFC #Staffordshire #LCFC #AVFC #BCFC #WBA #WWFC #villa #brum #premierleague #championship #leagueone #nonleague

92 badges ranked: 4. #Bolton If #BWFC kept the ribbons from the previous badge, it may have secured top spot. Alas, they place the red rose of #Lancashire underneath the impeccable circular lettering. An instantly recognisable classic, nonetheless. #MUFC #MCFC #BRFC #OAFC #SCFC #LFC #EFC #RFC

West Ham's 1975 FA Cup final victory was the last time an all English XI lifted the cup. Eight of the #WHUFC starting eleven were born in East London/Essex. #hammers #FFC #fulham #COYI #premierleague #football #soccer #LOFC #AFC #arsenal #THFC #COYS #irons #London #eastlondon #Essex #efl #epl

92 badges ranked: 5. #Chesterfield A perfect combination of Victorian-cum-1970s initials and a stylish depiction of a local landmark. Red and blue aren't always comfortable bedfellows but #CFC pull it off. #DCFC #SUFC #SWFC #LCFC #NFFC #NCFC #footballhistory #EFL #nonleague #championship #BAFC

Still one of the greatest goals I've seen live (7:25) #GBFC #HWFC #PFC #pompey #saintsfc #sfc #football #soccer #premierleague #nonleague #AFCB youtu.be/6cT2pcW_K88?...

#Kidderminster Harriers' Aggborough gotta be one of the hardest sounding grounds around. #football #soccer #premierleague #nationalleague #nonleague #KHFC #WBA #WBAFC #WWFC #BCFC #BRFC #AVFC #villa #CCFC #SCFC #NCFC

92 badges ranked: 6. #Fulham A badge that isn't nearly as old as I expected (2001!). Maybe the twee cottage, traditional feel and peaceful environs led me to place #FFC on a pedestal of tradition, but I stand by it. The angled, fused typography creates an initialism of beauty. #CFC #CPFC #QPR

Stan Mortensen scored a hat trick in the 1953 FA Cup Final, only for the game to go down in the history books as the "Matthews Final". Must have hurt. #Blackpool #BFC #BWFC #Bolton #HCAFC #soccer #football

Anyone know what club this is? Assuming it's #football... #soccer #premierleague #buli #bundesliga #laliga

An absolute gem of BBC archive footage examining #Bradford Park Avenue in their final season as a Football League club. #football #soccer #nonleague #EFL #BCAFC #BPAFC #LUFC #SWFC #SUFC #championship #premierleague #HTFC #yorkshire #MUFC #MCFC #BFC #PNEFC #BRFC #BWFC #LFC youtu.be/i2tFFib2IOw?...

92 badges ranked: 7. #Wolves Simple, iconic, menacing. Communicstes all in an economical fashion. I could show my mum this badge and she’d clock who it represented. So similar to #Salford, and yet so different: heritage vs. novelty; meaning vs. marketing. #WWFC #AVFC #BCFC #WBA #villa #MUFC

Steve Bloomer (1874-1938) scored 293 in 474 apps for #Derby. A bust of Bloomer sits besides the home dugout, and a song, 'Steve Bloomers watching' is played at home games. Are #DCFC the only club with a tradition (albeit recent) referencing a player from the Edwardian period?! #NFFC #LCFC #SCFC

92 badges ranked: 8. #Birmingham My heart rate quickens when I see one of them old-timey balls. The addition of a globe (world conquest? Dream BIG!) + the simple banners is delightful. Peerless with its odd double circular design. #BCFC #AVFC #villa #brum #WWFC #WBA #WBAFC #wolves #WFC #AFC

92 badges ranked: 9. #Swansea Critics may call it sedate, but in actual fact that is the purest distillation of elegance. Immeasurably glad #SCAFC ditched their recent flirtation with innovation. #CCFC #NCFC #BRFC #BCFC #Wales #football #soccer #premierleague #championship #swans #Wrexham #WFC

On 14th June 1947 #Stoke City visited Bramall Lane knowing that a victory would see them crowned Champions. 10,000 #SCFC fans travelled to #Sheffield to witness their team lose 2-1. The title went to #Liverpool. Stoke ended up 4th, equalling their highest league finish. #LFC #SUFC #football #efl

92 badges ranked: 10. #Fleetwood You can probably work out by now what makes a good badge. Two or three bold colours; simple, clear iconography; straightforward, coherent typography. #FTFC a great example of bringing it all together. #afcf #bfc #lfc #efc #mufc #mcfc #bwfc #pnefc #brfc #lufc

#OTD 1987: Spain 2-4 England Gary Lineker got all four and 20 year old Tony Adams made his debut. #threelions #arsenal #AFC #Gunners #THFC #Spurs #COYS #EFC #LCFC #Barcelona #premierleague #football #soccer

92 badges ranked: 11. #Wycombe Wanderers The Chairboys (excuse me?) depict a goose choking on one end of a gilded chain while the other hangs out its arse. Batshit, and I love it. #wwfc #wfc #leagueone #ltfc #qprfc #bfc #rfc #oufc #championship #football #soccer #premierleague #afc #spurs #cfc

Nothing against #Sheffield FC and appreciate the importance of their history to their branding, but why have they called their current home "The Home of Football" when they've only played there since the 90s? Surely Bramall Lane has a greater claim... #sufc #sfc #swfc #dcfc #nffc #yorkshire #lufc
