My quick Newcastle 2019 jersey idea mock-ups the other night (and, moreso, the simplified single-colour Knights logo) got me thinking tonight. If and when Newcastle do decide to update their logo, I've thought for years that I'd love to ditch the black and grey that's presently in there and replace them with blue. That way the logo is blue and red, with the obviously-required white as those two colours alone won't work for a logo.
With that in mind, I've had a play around and narrowed my designs down to these two (left and right), with the bottom row being the same as the ones above but on a white background.
I've kept the gist of the current logo, but tweaked the visor, the eye, and the edging of the helmet ... as well as the shadow / highlights on the red mane. These, plus the reduction of colours down to just the club colours (+ white). I've also changed the font and increased the size of the word 'NEWCASTLE' and added white and blue keylines to the whole thing.
Anyway, I just thought I'd share in the hope that if/when the Knights do update the logo that they consider doing something along these lines and don't go and do something everybody hates!!
