Newcastle United supporters react to suggestion that club badge could be set for a revamp

As Newcastle United have undergone a takeover from the richest owners in world football, there are set to be many changes in the pipeline over the coming years. Under the ownership of Mike Ashley, things had been allowed to grow stale and the club was existing rather than growing. Amanda Staveley and the Saudi Arabian PIF fund are determined that the future of the club will be a successful one and with that ambition will come changes.

Chronicle Live suggested last week that the club's badge could be one of those things which could be set for a change. That's due to it being 34-years-old, which is 10 years older than any other badge in the Premier League.

Whilst badges are something that fans hold dear, many clubs in the division have undergone rebrands in recent years. That's due to the fact that the Premier League has become a global brand and club executives want to appeal to fans of all ages and countries, with a particular interest in picking up new, younger fans.
