When I first saw it, it blew me away. I love it! I am really excited by it all.”BEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UKPeterborough will switch from this crest next summerPeterborough believe that their new “digital-first ethos” can “attract new audiences” – while reflecting their “identity” and being more merchandise friendly.Commenting on the new crest, one fan wrote on X: “A lion with a lollipop and a first aid box.” While a second claimed: “The main issue I have is looking at it, you don’t think “oh yeah that’s Peterborough”, you just think it’s a weird version of Chelsea.”A third reasoned: “Not sure you can say it’s “unique and instantly recognisable”. It’s only instantly recognisable as looking like Chelsea and therefore not unique at all.”And a fourth commented: “You can’t say instantly recognisable but not have the club name on the badge.
