Poppy badges (8 Viewers)

[Tommo72]

Royal British Legion doing some great badges this year....worth a look if it’s your thing.

Shame they haven’t been given permission by Cov to produce one...

Is it down to the clubs though?

It is mate, Cov said no to using the emblem with the poppy....shame.

 

[Nick]

Has it been confirmed the club actually said no?

That's very odd, especially with our city's affiliation with the forces/blitz etc.

Walkers.
I would have got one.

 

[Tommo72]

Has it been confirmed the club said no?

I made an enquiry and got an email back confirming this was the case.

Very unfortunate to be honest.

 

[christonabike]

So they said “NOPM” then.

 

[WhaleOilBeefHooked]

Don't the Twist n Shout brigade get their own manufactured? Might be worth seeing if there's enough demand and getting some made up?

Strange, who was it at the club who said no?

Who did you email?

 

[the rumpo kid]

I got one last year. What's the problem this year?

Bit strange though to get an email along the lines of "there's no poppy badge because we didn't give permission...."

I emailed The British Legion to ask if there would be a Coventry City Edition and they replied with the info....I never said I emailed the club....

They specifically said the club had refused permission when asked?

Jesus Christ what is this? LOL

Yes they specifically said the club had refused permission......is that ok with the Skyblue Talk police?

It's fine. Just that I spoke to somebody at the club who said they haven't heard anything about it and had no reason to refuse it as they always work with them.

As there are only 7 League One Clubs listed, it would be strange for 17 others to all reject it after Poppies and Football are usually linked quite well.

Was just trying to see where the issue lay before starting a rant, that's all

I have the email Nick

I have the email Nick

I haven't said you haven't.

If you forward it to Mark Hornby he will speak with them direct, if not he has said he will get in touch with the contact from last time when he can

Was just trying to see what had happened before it ends up that the club are burning poppies at Ryton or something. That's all.

Done.

 

[Nick]

Done.

Easy when trying to find out what actually happened

 

[skyblueelephant76]

I thought there was no restriction on using our badge? That's why they came up with the terrible badge years ago that they had to backtrack on as they were trying to get something new they could have copyright on.

Mark has emailed me this afternoon and will be pursuing this and rectifying.

A class response may I add too.

Good work all round.

Was just to reduce printing costs I thought.

Yes that's what I believe, only 3 colours so was cheaper to make.

 

[Nick]

Not one colour more

 

[cov4theprem]

If they’re like the kits we’d better order ones with 2019 on

 

[sw88]

Did this ever resolved do we know?

Yeah the home kits are now available in store or online

I had an update last week to say it was too late to produce a CCFC badge this year but they will be ranged for 2019.

Fair enough.

There’s a bloke that stands with a cork board with badges as you walk up towards the Tesco stand from under the bridge, maybe he’ll have some

£30 for the badge and all you can eat and drink apparently.
