On Friday 9 May 2025, Newcastle United announced that they were beginning the process of updating their club crest ⚫️⚪️
As must be done when refining a clubs identity, the fans must be consulted and are the leading voice in supporting or rejecting any attempts to bring their club to the modern era.
Newcastle United's crest is currently based on the coat of arms for the city and has been in need of an update for some time, as has been common place for many clubs in recent years.
It is important not to alienate a fan base when redesigning the clubs primary identity, especially those as passionate as those on tyneside.
This is my attempt at redefining the clubs identity with a modern, sophisticated, simple, adaptable design that makes subtle nods to the clubs rich history.
What would you rate this design?
