Man City: Fans have their say as new badge is leaked
24th Dec 2015
Manchester City fans got an early Christmas present when the club's new badge appeared to be leaked by a government office.
The new crest was supposed to be revealed on Boxing Day, and the club had put posters up around Manchester, teasing fans with clues of what the design would entail.
But their big reveal has now been ruined after the Intellectual Property Office published it on its website. Three days early.
Gone is the golden eagle, the stars, the motto, and the letters 'FC'.
In come a circular design, a red rose and the date 1894, when the club became Manchester City.
Fans have been quick to have their say on social media and not all of it has been positive.
