Why Newcastle United wants to change its iconic club badge
- Newcastle United announced plans to update their club crest for the first time since 1988.
- The Premier League club stated the current design is too "intricate" for modern digital platforms and merchandise.
- The club stated the redesign "isn't about walking away from our past" but aims to "refine and revive" the existing crest, not replace it entirely.
- Newcastle will consult fans through an online survey to gather feedback on potential changes.
- This decision comes after a successful season for Newcastle, winning the Carabao Cup and aiming for Champions League qualification.
