Wellington Phoenix Logo Unveiling

Impressed enough by how the club has thought about this, and the execution, to the level i have bothered to update my avatar.

New logo is briliiant, genuinely might buy a kit this year because of it

This mean Te Atawhai Hudson-Wihongi and Moses Dyer now on the transfer radar?

Maybe splash out for Winston Reid?

I'm loving the new logo. Not a big fan of the FC bit, but everything else hits the mark really well. Feeling really pumped up for the season now.

Over all really like the new design, a couple issues but a major improvement on the previous imo. Not sure how it'll go on the kit, and I didn't like the shape of the shield they proposed so did a thing. I'd prefer the 3rd option, but hear it might be a circle. Thoughts?

Shield 3 look much better than Shield 1 imo.

Yep, sheild number 3 please.

Players Suits had no boarder around the pocket emblem

Looks like the logo for a Craft Brewery

Usually I'm a fan of shields but I like how it sits in the circle to be honest

Panhead or someone needs to do a nix beer now, will look great on a bottle

“For me, the strongest aspect of this new logo,” said Sigmund, “is that it draws upon a story, a story specific to Wellington, that is based upon key values that we want to build this club around.”

craft beer you say?

The Panhead one is already very similar

You realise that Garage Project is a sponsor and did a Nix beer last season right?

"Lest We Forget"

I drink wine

#sophisticated

Were there any other announcements at the breakfast?

new striker has been signed just waiting on a visa, could be on plane tomorrow

NZ likely to play Japan in October (away)

like the new logo, wouldve liked to see the fc below the bird but other than that its very nice

Wow. I should have known not to 100% trust the blurry image I saw from a catalogue on the internet.

That actually looks great. Much like everyone else has said, not sold on the F|C but hey, that bird is nice and that's all that matters.

I might be in the minority but I really liked the old logo.

Having said that the new one is kinda bitching too.  It looks like it could have been a logo for many more years with its simplicity.

Hopefully new logo, new coach, new stage of the finals to be reached?

Hey Phoenix, please supply us all with some stickers of the new logo withe the season pass delivery.

Need a smaller one for the car.

One to put over the Apple logo on the computer.

Some fake tribal logo Tatoo's for kids would be nice.

Thanks. :-)

I think there is another interesting angle to this.  This logo draws very specifically on a Wellington story/identity.  The club have said they want to place more emphasis on a particular story and the logo represents this.  It's interesting that this seems to be a doubling down of the Wellington angle of the club which I personally think is well overdue 

Love the logo; and the tangata whenua reference and use of te reo seems so us, somehow.

You reckon all the Aussies, etc. in the squad will think so too?

Tourists love Maori culture.

Didn't one of them steal your bike? 

I think the type is pretty weak, the eye of the phoenix is not overly considered but it is an improvement on the previous.

I really liked the old logo - but when you put them side b side....the new one is far better.

Not sold on the font, but apart from that it's class.

As long as the kit aint godawful black I can cope with a loss of stripes

The type is absolutely horrible.

Well done Wellnix for this, bloody awesome. Tino pai rawa atu!
