| Or even the traditional Cherry & White hoops with the Ancient & Loyal badge showing the "150th Anniversity" on it.
Now that would be a best seller, especially if there was no "Costa Coffee" badge depicting a old tired looking Viking on it!
I would even buy one myself!

I won't be parting with any money for any merchandise with that awful badge on it. It's not for me and never will be. That's not Wigan RL. It's just one of the catalogue of errors the club has made in the last few years to disengage the fans from the club.

It doesn’t seem to have done them too much harm if the comments about hugely increased merchandise sales are to be believed.
Each to their own but the badge has been the least of my worries this past year or two. I don’t sit watching Saints pack embarrass us (yet again) thinking ‘if only we had the old badge’ on our shirts.

Where has it been announced that there has been an hugely increase in merchantise sales with the new badge?
It indeed true, perhaps there would have been even been bigger sales, if a better designed badge showing a proper Warrior on a shield instead of a old tired looking Viking on what has been described as a "Costa Coffee" badge.
Perhaps, the person who designed it was in a Costa Coffee outlet which give him the idea for the design!
He sure was laughing all the way to the bank when he was paid!

For those who don't hail from Chorley, it's pronounced 'Pal (as in friend) Mal (as in short for Malcolm)'
It isn't pronounced 'Paul Maul".

It could be the best shirt in years but all we will hear is about the badge.
The club should sell cotton patches of the crest for an extra tenner that can be sewn on. Financial worries would be over in a fortnight.

It's not like the club just changed the badge and have said nowt since. They have given very in depth answers as to why the badge was changed and how the new badge was designed.
Plus they still intend to use the old badge in the future for special merchandise.
Baffles me how any supporter could have read all the information put forward by the club and not back the change, or at least accept it as a bare minimum.
Also worth noting that the club didn't really have much of a say in it either, it was pushed by the league, Hence the rebranding of multiple teams in the last couple of seasons.
