Ive had way too much time on my hands over the winter which got me thinking on the England logo/shirt design debate.
I personally agree that the new logo isnt right, so i looked into it, from what i can find, Englands first logo was the roses of england (red and white i think), which led me to think , could we not add this to the current logo, thus recognising our RL heritage with the RFL saving face having paid someone to design the shield. I picture the roses at the sides of the shield with the green stems interlocked coming down to the bottom.Maybe add a lion or 3 on the top, and bobs your uncle!
Anyone whos a bit of a whizz on the computer could have a go.
I was also loking at what an england rugby league shirt should look like, now I like a white chevron on a white shirt, but rugby league isnt just chevrons, we have the butchers stripe a'la Fev, the irregular hoop, and the garish 80s splash designs, now being so obviously ripped off by the union fashion police for thier european jersies
But when i personally think of an England rugby league jersey, i think of the classic cotton cross one, which for me is how the jersey should look, yes its outrageous, yes its a design not common in rugby league, but its the jersey we have played in since 1995 (off and on), so why not stick to it, its ours! better than the generic one we have at current.
Id love to have this settled by the fans of the game insted of the often faceless people at the RFL, so we can all have an identity we feel proud of!
Id love to hear what you guys think.......
