I know we have a go at our gear, but it could be worse. Sheffield Steelers’ new range meant to be even better…
You'd think they'd do some research. This is worse than the SS logo on the front of the Leeds United shirt.
I imagine it probably never saw a pair of eyes above 30 years old, and the printers probably in Vietnam. Either that or Dane Murphy is a closet fascist.
Murphy: “Why are neo-nazis turning up to our pre-season friendlies with our new merch on”? Marketing Manager: “Yeah, about that…”
I'm under 30 myself and struggling a little... my best guess being after seeing the comments, National front??
I suppose the Forest fans have the wonderous choice of choosing whether to be called fascists then or scabs...
You're under 30? As one of the most eloquent & intelligent posters on here, you're living proof that old adage 'with age comes wisdom' is total rubbish. Sadly, for completely opposite reasoning, I am living proof of the same!
The only difference I see is that the National Front logo, despite being very old and representing a despicable organisation, is a much better design. The Nottingham Forest logo looks like someone with no graphic design skills has attempted to copy it. That's probably not the case. Whoever did it is probably young and wasn't aware of the National Front. But you'd think someone between design, approval, order, printing and retail would have noticed. I picture the order going to a local firm who see it instantly, but they're Notts County fans, and gleefully fulfill the order, laughing hysterically throughout. But it was probably done in China.
Dunt really know, on the fence wi this one, if it wer red an white, maybe, as it is Mmmmmmmm, its only a racist slogan if you see it as a racist slogan, if it wer in black bold, definately not, im sure the Forest fans will av summat to say.
I’m not saying it’s intentionally racist by the way. I’m actually saying the opposite. I think it’s completely unintentional. That’s the point. But I’m really not sure how anyone can suggest the accidental similarity with the NF logo isn’t there. It’s an uppercase N and F connected together. It looks like NF. It reads NF. It sounds like NF. Literally everything about it is NF.
