I like it. Good modernization of the centennial logo, which should be the normal logo.

There's no way that will look as dated a the clip art soccer ball badge.

The top league Allsvenskan just finished so I thought I'd post some Swedish logos. I'll post them in the order they finished. 1: IFK Norrköping Historical powerhouse, but nobody expected Norrköping to do much noise. Instead they emerged the winners, first title in decades. The crest is a common one. There's loads of IFK clubs in Sweden (and a few in the rest of Scandinavia), started in a youth drive during the growth of organised sports about a century ago. Most IFK clubs use the same badge, and play in blue/white stripes. 2: IFK Göteborg The other IFK team is arguably the most successful club in Sweden, with two European titles in the 80s. They don't use the normal IFK badge because they're ~*special*~. The logo is based on the heraldic arms of the city of Gothenburg. 3: AIK Stockholm-based club with the worst fans. The badge is pretty nice though. 4: IF Elfsborg This Borås club was the first to win the title while playing on artificial turf in 2006. 5: Malmö FF Won the last two titles, and are playing in the champions league. 6: Djurgårdens IF The name means "the animal farm". Since they're from Stockholm, nobody likes them. 7: BK Häcken Young and small club from Gothenburg that nobody really cares about. Not much of a rivalry with anyone, despite several other local Gothenburg clubs and the usual heavy rivalry between Gothenburg and Stockholm teams. Arranges the world's largest youth tournament Gothia Cup each year. Still, to be a Häcken fan is to be lonely (which is probably why they're my team). Also, Häcken means "the hedge", as it's named after a hedgerow. Häcken also means "the butt", which is always good for a giggle, and gives opposing fans something to chant about. There's also a local rival called GAIS. Yes, GAIS have played The Butt. 8: Helsingborgs IF Trained by Celtic legend Henrik Larsson. His son plays striker for them. Otherwise mediocre, as I think they're trying to recover from a bit of financial problems. 9: Örebro SK 45 seasons in the top flight, but no title. Have a participation award. 10 Gefle IF Gävle-based club is old as balls but has never won the league. 11: Hammarby IF Stockholm club that somehow manages to be both likeable and popular. Really popular. Like drawing 30.000 fans to games in our second tier league last year. This year they set spectator records, and all other clubs envy them for their fans. 12: GIF Sundsvall The only decent northern club. First club to play on artificial turf. Got a game moved for the most bizarre reason ever. One of their players reached the final (and won) of tv talent show "Idol 2013", which clashed with a home game. 13: Kalmar FF Have been Swedish champions once. 14: Falkenbergs FF Only their second season in the top league ever. Will have to play a play-off to stay up. 15: Halmstads BK Has the worst logo in Sweden. Relegated. 16: Åtvidabergs FF Nope, not a women's team, the logo draws its design from the symbol for copper. It's also found on the city coat of arms, as it used to be a mining town. Smallest city (7000) to ever win the top league. Relegated. R.S.

I presume most Swedes are aware that other colours exist apart from blue and yellow

...and here's the clubs that earned promotion: 1: Jönköpings Södra IF The last time they played in allsvenskan was in the sixties. 2: Östersunds FK What the hell? Tiny northern club not old enough to buy a beer comes out of nowhere to play top level football, much to the surprise of everyone. Might actually have a worse logo than Halmstad. --- 3: IK Sirius Will meet Falkenberg in a play-off for a spot in allsvenskan. From Uppsala.

I went to an AIK vs Djurgården match in 2009 and I had a great time. I'm an American that lived in Sweden in 2001-2002 and fell in love with soccer over there watching the Allsvenskan, the 2002 World Cup, and playing FIFA with friends. Freddie Ljungberg, Henrik Larsson and Zlatan were my first exposure to "world class players" and would always overpay to get them on my teams in championship manager. I guess I'm saying I'm a big American nerd that loves Swedish football so thanks for that awesome post. I wish we got Swedish football on TV over here.

You're welcome. And yeah, I can imagine it being hard to follow such a tiny league over there. But if you're curious, here's the good and bad. The bad: The Swedish national team is very bad and will probably miss the Euros. We have a playoff against Denmark, and I don't hold us as favorites. The good: It seems a lot of clubs have started to rely more on developing their own players, and doing a better job of it, rather than buying some hyped nonames from south america. As a result we won the Euro U-21 and qualified for the Olympics, and Malmö has made it to the Champion's league twice in a row, and I have an impression of the overall quality of football in allsvenskan being up lately, all hopefully part of a general upwards trend. And because it's the badge thread, have the Swedish badge:

Does Malmö have a historically Jewish tradition or is the Star of David just for fun? Also lol that my phone adds the umlaut.

I tried to look it up, which wasn't easy. The star itself was supposedly taken from Malmö's oldest city seal, from the 14th century. Still, there is a Jewish connection: They have a legendary former chairman who helped to evacuate Jews from Denmark as the Nazis invaded. He's the one who later added the city name and the star to the original badge to make it stand out. They also play with a gold star above the badge on their jerseys, as they've been Swedish champions 18 times. They briefly played with two stars (for 20+ wins), as they counted a few league wins in years the actual title was decided by a playoff (which they didn't win). A rival club sent them a maths book, and some doofus filed charges for false marketing, until the Swedish FA told them to remove one. R.S.

It's basically a wash, I think. I like the black/white version of the badge on that t-shirt more than the colored one. The implementation of the DC flag is nice, and they got rid of what was by far the worst part of the old badge, the lettering.
