Ram@Lincoln Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Really emotional video for me, what a great piece of content. So inclusive, such community driven. This is what the club had lacked for many years, we're back to being a proper family club again. And I love it! SaffyRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Love this. These things are common in branding and marketing for products and businesses. It’s really fascinating to see it for Derby, too. It really does show Clowes is starting this club from the beginning again. It’s great. Vimto Enjoyer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTedd Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) I’ve got to say, I love corporate identities like this. Some people might think it’s bs, but I think it’s really important for a company to have values and standards that everyone can get behind, that identifies what is important to that company. And if you don’t buy into that identity, you can jog on. Edited July 1, 2023 by TigerTedd therealhantsram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loftyhites Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 @loweman2 Looks like you’ve done a really good job on this and thought deeply about the history, heritage and future of DCFC in your considerations. David Clowes is the same age as me and I remember the centenary kit as something special when it came out because of the coloured sash. Derbyshire use the amber/brown/blue colours for the T20 kits which I think is great. My only concern with this is if the ground starts looking like a circus with a range of colours. I never liked the Normanton End when it got ‘updated’ with bright stripy colours but each to their own. Though one of the original early colours, I note that red is not incorporated in the new identity 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
