gaspard 562 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 6 hours ago, ranger_syntax said: Would anyone be complaining about the stars if we were closing in on 60 titles? Yes, I would, stars lost relevance a long time ago, they started as a representation of 10 titles, then as a Euro honour and finally reached their nadir when killie bestarred themselves to celebrate 50 years since they won something or other. Our scroll crest requires no embellishment and the stars should have gone years ago. Anyhoo, if we're using stars in any manner they should have 6 points not 5. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 15,294 Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 It's not a new idea, as the Dutch national team(s) introduced the lion/lioness crest thing a couple of years ago. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 5 stars should have featured only for the season after winning title #50.

I also think, from a purely aesthetic point of view, the stars just look a bit rubbish. Six stars would look even worse. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,640 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 I understand the rationale behind it, but I don't like the lettering. Every time I see it, I'm just... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexscottislegend 2,325 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 And notice that nowhere does the word 'Glasgow' appear. There are still people who don't know the name of our club. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
