I was thinking the font in the text on the badge didn't look quite right.
Wasn't sure if it was my OCD or not. |  | | |

Compare the Suffolk Punch's tail to what it should be too. Definitely not using the official badge.
Also look at the back leg of the Punch! [Post edited 7 Apr 2021 22:56]

It is the standard club badge they haven't altered it in any way.. Why do people look for things that aren't there? |  |

Look at the back leg of the horse, look at the tail etc. The font is also different. | | | |

What are you talking about?!?
This is the front cover of our local newspaper printing a significantly different rendition of the badge.
Do you not know your own clubs badge?

Copyrighted logo, so using something similar to avoid paying a usage fee? |  |

There appear to be slightly different versions around. These are very minor differences that you have to look very carefully at to notice. I suspect this is a version that is slightly out of date compared to the most recent one. |  |

Wouldn't have thought so. That is far too similar to avoid copyright issues I would have thought.
More likely that the club changes the badge slightly every so often and we haven't noticed these more subtle changes. | |

I know a bit about design and print and I think what they have done is use some software to create a vector image of the club badge, using a raster. This is probably because they don't have anything other than what you or I could get from Google, which isn't good enough to scale up for print purposes.
It looks a bit "off" because the software basically gives it's best guess. You'd need to do it manually to get a more accurate render.
Kind of bonkers that the local press don't have access to the real thing, but I've noticed even the club seem to use low res rasters all over the place. I do wonder if a print ready vector even exists! |  |

Even the tail's a weird flop compared to the sharp, graceful curve of the real one. |  |

Yup is definately been fiddled with, maybe a canary attacked it.
Strange that the club or the paper cannot supply a standard logo to use, bit sloppy from both parties.
Font is wrong, horse is dodgy. Sack the art director. |  | | |

You're right, the logo is wrong - I work in a printers in Ipswich and have dealt with print for the club for years.
The horses' legs are wrong, the joints been rounded off and the font is squashed. I don't think it's a conscious effort to change it more a f*k up with an Archant designer or what ITFCs marketing department have supplied? |  | | |

A print ready vector / EPS does exist, it's usually external designers not being able to get hold of the correct file. The guy who is / was head of this stuff at Ipswich wasn't the best, and I think a lot of the artwork for Archant is done overseas. | | | |

Yeah, it looks heavily smoothed, probably saved a few crucial kB there. And the tail outline has been manually redrawn I think, as well as replacing the text because the vector redraw of the original would have looked funny. |  |

Exactly this. Have done this in the past when clients can only provide a tiny JPG of their logo and need it blown up and it can have some strange effects like you can see on their front page. | | | |

First order of business, re-enstate the current home shirt, old, badge permanently! Next, state that next seasons kit will be an exact copy of that worn at the start of the 72/3 season.
Ground improvements. 1 ,Paint the girders in NS lower, very annoying. 2, get rid of the tarp’ that has been behind me for last 10 years at back of NS lower. 3, get rid of the puddle by the west stand where they plug in the sprinklers! The football will then look after itself😀 | | | |
