Neither of Manchester's two big football clubs have plans to alter their club badges despite criticism that the emblems of a ship both include may celebrate slavery.
The famous badges of both United and City contain images of ships which is thought to be an homage to the ship seen on the city of Manchester's official coat of arms.
But a comment piece in The Guardian questioned whether the ships were 'an emblem of a crime against humanity', prompting some calls for the emblems to be removed.
