They may be one of the most successful teams in Germany, but the badge certainly lets them down.
Shit Football Badges
Sunday 3 July 2011
Shit Football Badges No 5: Hamburger SV
One would have thought that a team with the pedigree of Hamburg may be inclined to redesign a badge which, quite frankly, looks more like an optical illusion than a football crest.
Shit Football Badges No 4: FC Santa Claus
Here's the situation. Two third division Finnish clubs are about to merge into one new club. Their names? Rovaniemen Reipas and Rovaniemen Lappi. So, what to call the new club? Hmmm....
FC Santa Claus, of course!
Shit Football Badges No 3: TSG 1899 Hoffenheim
Hoffenheim made the giant leap from the fifth tier of German football to the top tier in just eight years (2000-2008), but they haven't bothered to celebrate their recent success with a new crest design.
The designers must have worked really hard on this one. For 5 minutes at least, before they headed off to the pub.
Shit Football Badges No 2: Newell's Old Boys
This hilarious badge belongs to Argentine top division side Newell's Old Boys, whose former charges include Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona.
Famous former players: check. Shit badge: check.
Shit Football Badges No 1: Deportivo Wanka
This appalling badge belongs to a Peruvian second division side from the city of Huancayo. Unfortunately for fans of the South American minnows, the embarrassment doesn't stop with the badge - their club's name is Deportivo Wanka.
Of course, in Spanish, the name doesn't mean 'one who masturbates'. Translated, Deportivo Wanka means Goat Scrotum FC. Much better.
