Legit to include first nations.

The presentation is great. The thinking is great. The intention is great. The logo is a big meh for me however.

Droit devant is as inspiring as Tous pour gagner.

 

[Ghetto Sangria]

I like Droit Devant. I get the messaging and it’s pretty great, but it’s gonna be tough to look over the snowflake lol

Only thing I see is a cat but****

At least the video is a small consolation price

 

[Olfer]

I agree. It was a nice montage.

Made one in French, English, and Mohawk. The three languages that were here when the city as founded. Nice touch.

I understand why they said that, it's fine. But historically speaking, it is total BS lol.

 

[Turtleneck Plek]

I appreciate Gilmore's explanation of why they went for "foot" instead of "football" or "soccer". It bugged me before but now I get it.

Seriously CF Montreal is a fine name. I even like it in the logo itself. The messaging is great. But ffs find another way to display it. Snowflake just doesnt work.

 

[Turtleneck Plek]

So basically, no jersey reveal today.

 

[Luigi Habs]

I'm the type who doesn't care about logos and jerseys designs - but that logo is godawful

I don't mind the CF Montreal but gets 1/10 for originality

Actually... that tuque is kinda cool...

The merch legit looks like winter wear, which is actually good for them. Still don't like the logo.

 

[Turtleneck Plek]

LOL ok they lost me with the snowflake explanation. "Go ahead, insult us, call us snowflakes because when we come together we form an impenetrable wall."

We have some of the most talented creatives in the world in Montreal and that's the best they could come up with after two years - with the Urban Dictionary explanation to boot? No thanks.

 

[Ghetto Sangria]

The gear is actually cool. Maybe it’ll settle in? Fkn snowflake.

CFMontréal is fine. Club de Foot Montreal sounds bad though. Why not just add the other "de" so that it makes sense grammatically at least. "Club de Foot de Montréal"

I don't get the whole rationale of changing our name to gain fans "internationally". We can't even fill the stadium, how about you start attracting fans locally?

 

[Phil Parent]

Yeah, people in Spain, France, England, Italy are just stampeding over each other to root for a Canadian soccer team.

 

[Vinceee]

Guess i'm the only one who likes the logo/crest...

[Tabarouette]

Yeah, people in Spain, France, England, Italy are just stampeding over each other to root for a Canadian soccer team.

they look at teams with a bunch of big names on them, and then they look at the Impact and their jabroni lineup and they go "i'll root for that other team because Impact is a bad name, that's why"

totally makes sense

How do snowflakes fare in the summer, when they play?
