About 6 months ago I created a Geeklist here advertising the fact that there were a number of Microbadges for English/Scottish Premier League Football clubs and soliciting further requests.

Eventually, all the badges were bought and a few more got made, so now there were 11 English PL badges and one SPL badge, all with owners. In fact, the English Premier League is by far the best supported league (in terms of Microbadges) on the Geek. This week I have added 4 more EPL and one SPL badge, so in an effort to bring these all to public attention (for the last and final time, I promise), here are is a list of all badges available.

If you would like a badge for a team that isn't here (and you have the 15gg), then I will happily do requests or you are welcome to contact me for tips on designing and submitting it yourself.

Incidentally, the offer of a free microbadge voucher from the previous list still stands, but given the bestselling badge (LFC) has only sold 7 so far, don't hold your breath for it being awarded.

 Liverpool: At the top of the league (at this early stage in the season) and also the equal most owned football team microbadge (7 owners). Let's hear it for Rafa's scouse army.

Apparently this is the microbadge to have...

I guess once I have enough geekgold I too will have it...

now all I need to know is what the team is all about... other than putting out a version of a crappy game...

I visited Ewood park a couple of years ago and saw Alan Shearer in his prime. It was the FA cup if I recall correctly and he put 2 in the net. Of course he was wearing the black and white stripes, but then so were most of the crowd (and I was in the home section).

Normally I like to do the club crest (or some variation on it). Unfortunately the Wigan one is very, very busy.


What do you think - is it recognisable?

The shield does not really work so we would be left with the shirt.


Please let me know your preference.

2nd and 3rd attempts:
From the trust site (not sure the colours are right?) with the football behind.


From the original logo, just the elephant and castle


The 3rd one is obviously far more recognisable. Thoughts?
