Tell me you had no understanding of the composite parts of the original crest, without telling me you knew sweet FA about the meanings behind the original crest.

Saint Peter's dropped one of his keys, for starters.

It is actually two keys in the logo if that is what you mean?

Well the lion thing looks like he’s thinking ‘if that’s the size of the fling key, how big is the door???’

And i presume it’s a door on a boat as POSH stands for Port Out Starboard Home

Actually, according to the internet ‘The keys represent Saint Peter, as the city is named after Saint Peter's Cathedral. They are often referred to as the "keys to heaven"

I’ve been to Peterborough. Heaven it’s not.

According to my edition of Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable (with a foreword by Terry Pratchett) that traditonal explanation of POSH "is almost certainly fictitious", the dictionary assuming it was just a slang word for a "dandy".

The club's nickname, of course, was due to Fletton Utd manager Pat Tirrell's desire to find "posh (i.e. good) new players for a posh new team."

As for your assertion with regards to the town itself, I can only concur.

I worked in Peterborough for over a year and I think you will find that it is a city, it has a cathedral and everything. I mean what type of conurbation with a cathedral and a league football team could rank so very, very far below a town ?

If that's the case, it's very poorly executed.

It looks more like a silhouette/shadow, and St Peter's Keys are traditionally crossed, rather than stacked.

A pretty damning indictment of their 'engagement exercise':

There’s a negative space cross IN the keys, if that helps…

Personally, think it looks awful, but I’ve not seen the rest of the brief.
