So come on then,
What's the fishies opinion on the UKIP's new logo ?
Does it infringe the premier leagues lion logo ??
I can't post a photo because I don't know how 🙄
But I am sure some one will shortly.

My opinion is no it does not , although there is a similarity I guess.
BUT... a lion is a lion ffs !
Maybe British eggs, the queens coat of arms and the cowardly lion from wizard of oz to name a few should all be sued !

Ps hope we put out a team of lions tomorrow
I live in hope more than expectation unfortunately 😐

Just googled it and it does look like the Premier League logo. Which is fitting if ironic. Fitting because both organisations are blots on contemporary life. Ironic in that one campaigns to reduce the number of foreigners working here, and the other seems to encourage the opposite.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I grant you the Premier League is more about media frenzy and money these days, but it is still a football competition.

I think it looks symbolic, better than all the other bore fest tory/labour/libdem political symbols.

It looks like a lion thats a similar colour thats it.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

They're all symbolic. They're symbols.

UKIP are about as useful as a chocolate fireguard, now their only objective, BREXIT,  has been achieved (kind of!). UKIP followers aren't generally the brightest tool in a picnic.
