Manchester United Current Badge

                                                                                 

 Manchester United’s decision to alter the club badge in 1998 caused a minor outcry amongst die hard fans. Up until then, the badge appeared with the words “Manchester United Football Club” on the crest. The 1998 decision removed the words “Football Club” and put “United” on the bottom level of the badge. It was meant to reflect the fact that it was now a brand and more than a football club, but it angered traditional fans who valued the crest.

The devil has been a fixture on the badge since the 1970s, after the FA recommended that all clubs should copyright their badges. The 1970s (first image) badge is now synonymous with Manchester United, even if the 1990s badge (second image) has a subtle difference. Man Utd wouldn’t be the same without it!

The Badge Of The Past

 

 

                        

 Have you ever wondered what the Manchester United badge looked like before a red devil decided to appear on it? Well if you have, you need look no further! The badge displayed above was the one that took pride of place on the jersey in the 1970s. This badge was black and white, with no red involved and was more of a true likeness to the one used by the teams of the early 1900s.

 Indeed, the current badge only put in an appearence in the 1980s when the nickname of “Red Devils” started to catch on. However, I couldn’t imagine a Manchest United logo looking any other way now!
