Much worse, especially from their point of view. The whole point of their sponsorship is to have their logo on the competition badge, not merged in within it.

Echo those sentiments, badge is awful. Hopefully it'll look better on the sleeves.

Why not? I'd have offered it them for a year.

Super League gets advertised nationwide on Stobart lorries and then they get first refusal on next year when hopefully we can add a few big names to the pot.

Amazing. Do you work for the RFL. This is their actual effort!

You've clearly missed the convo that preceded that effort.

The point was that the RFL effort had the Stobart logo in a red outline that doesn't go with anything within the shield. It would look far better without the red line.

It already is merged in within it. They've changed the shape of the competition badge to merge it in.

If they're going to merge it to within the badge, they should have at match. Otherwise they should have done something similar to engage and Tetley's and have it outside of the badge.

By the way, does anyone know the terms of the deal yet? I hear people talking about our logo on the Stobart trucks and I can't help but thinking they're getting very ahead of themselves. There might be a few, but I'd be very surprised (and delighted) if it was anything significant.

Saw it but just did not register!

Gold looks better than red yes. Suppose sponsor want some of their colour in?

Not very imaginative full stop.

Like I said though, they've had just white text on their logos. That would have been fine. The red outline just makes it look a cheap photoshop jobby.

Well I hope they do plaster it on the lorries

How would that shield look if the blue background was Stobart green instead?

Here's very rough version in green. It took literally 30 seconds with the paint tin. I can't be d doing a proper one, but this should give you an idea.

That actually looks a lot better.

Had a quick play. Sorry about the size!

Nothing wrong with the logo, it stands out well and is bold and clear.

Obviously the idea is that it stands out on the sleeve and also doesn't interfere too much with the individual clubs designs. Does the job just right I reckon.

Stobarts get involved and games are now delayed till a Monday
