Reading this news for the first time (stats Herm hibernated, it seems).
Anyway, just to say 'thank you' to those players released. I hope they can find a good, new club to continue their careers.

Not a fan of the new badge - it looks like C*ty’s - but other than that, it’s yet another professional bit of marketing from the club.
Hopefully the new kits look good and it’s great to be getting support from local celebs. You can see the new owners are already trying to build a ‘brand’ that people want to be associated with. Another indication that it is now our time to emerge from the doldrums of the last decade, move out of the shadows and give Stockport a team to be proud of again.
I’ll forgive the badge if they keep doing everything else right!

There was no worse badge than that awful 96-98 effort, though, the design of which looked like it started life being scratched into the top of a school desk with someone's front door key! I get what you mean, mate, but at least this one has the proper badge within.

My first thoughts about the badge that it were more akin to those of Halifax and Rochdale than to C*ty's! It's a fair point - although, as Gazz says, the crest is correct, and I also think (without being anything approaching an expert in such matters!) that there is something in marketing theory that favours a circular image to strengthen the brand. Good messaging once again from the Club's new regime, too.

I agree the 96-98 effort was dreadful... fortunately I was only about 3 years old then so I had no strong feelings either way! Haha

I also think (without being anything approaching an expert in such matters!) that there is something in marketing theory that favours a circular image to strengthen the brand. If so, that would probably explain the proliferation of circular style badges recently. I guess everything follows trends - what is great is that there seems to be a plan in place and a strong focus on building the brand.

And have just noticed that this very forum's logo on here is circle-shaped! County Heaven - leading the way in cutting-edge marketing since 2011.

Not good news as Elliot Osbourne has joined Stevenage.
Do we have better?
I think we should have kept him.

I think we'll bring in better players. He'll make a good quiz question in a few years.
