    AFC Liverpool's badge



    Pretentious, preposterous and ostentatious.

    I like it.

    Hmm. Years of moaning that the liver bird isn't prominent enough on the badge and when they get the chance to do it themselves...

        It looks like the badge on the front of those daft Russian hats Evra and Vidic were wearing on Wedneday night/Thursday morning.

          It's a great badge but nothing to do with Liverpool, really, is it?

          What was the last team to be named "Red Star.." anything? Has there ever been a team called "Black Star.." something

            Ghana's national team are called the Black Stars.

            Thus this kit:

            I'm not sure I get the Red Star question; most of the clubs with that name have reasonably long histories (the Parisian one goes back to the 19th c).

              What I mean is, has there been a Red Star club started since the end of the Soviet Union, for instance?

              I knew about Ghana but I was just wondering if there was a club called Black Star...

                I'm not aware of one, but then there haven't been that many professional football clubs started since the end of the USSR. My point about the French club was that the name predated the Russian Revolution by 20 years.

                Google tells me that there is a Monrovia Black Star in Liberia.

                  True. I wonder if there were any new ones started in the 80s or 90s.

                  Monrovia Black Star is a fantastic name

                    I like the AFC Liverpool badge. It harks back to the communist roots the city enjoyed during the dark days of Thatcherism, and also highlights the fact we won 5 European Cups before Bert and Ernie turned up.

                              Well, they haven't really yet. I mean, they haven't played their first match yet - they start in the North West Counties League next season.

                                  Is it a reminder that there was still a Soviet Union last time Liverpool were any good?

                                    What's the big circle made out of? Fibre optic cable?

                                    Just the middle bit would have been plenty.

                                        Oh, and it's a bit ironic that the typeface they've chosen for that badge is Gill Sans.

                                          Oh dear. Having news about them on the Big Liverpool website points all the way towards being thought of as a 'cute little fashionable non-league offshoot' doesn't it?

                                            I'm just trying to work out a set of circumstances that'd lead to FC United news appearing on manutd.com. Given Fergie has banned all mention of them from his press conferences, I can't think of one.

                                            It's very strange.

                                            But AFC Liverpool have always said they aren't a breakaway club, just an affordable alternative to Liverpool. But then so are the reserve team. Or the youth teams.

                                              I think the liver bird and the lone star at the top look good, but the rest looks like something you used to (maybe still do) get on those cheap and nasty trophies they gave out at local schoolboy/youth team cup finals.

                                              A bit overwrought and a bit of a dog's dinner overall, for me.

                                                First time I looked at that, I thought it said 'Fans Team To Play Pagan Friendly'. I can't imagine what that might involve.

                                                Nice of Big Liverpool to plug Little Liverpool on the official site, I guess.

                                                  I mean, after last week, perhaps 'Gill Avec' would have been more appropriate.
