Gobbleygook from the Monarchs page about their new logo. It sounds likec someone has swallowed a marketing text book whole!
The colour scheme has been redefined and realigned to the brand of the Monarchs with the addition of Edinburgh and Speedway text recognising the Club's roots and displaying the full Edinburgh Monarchs Speedway title of the Club.
Each element of the new Monarchs logo will find different uses allowing coherent delivery of the Monarchs brand across all formats whether this be the full logo, the crown, the lion rampant and crown, or the Edinburgh Monarchs Speedway text.

The angled crown is a spoiler for me. Looks as though it’s slipping from the lion rampant’s grasp. And why does the lion have two tails? Maybe it has two dicks. Isn’t there a restriction on the use of heraldic symbols? I thought approval had to be sought from the Lord Lyon King of Arms. According to Wiki, misuse of arms in Scotland is a criminal offence and treated as tax evasion. Blimey. Not as bad, perhaps, as blatant misappropriation. Peterborough, at various times, pinched logos used by Puma sportswear and the Florida Panthers ice hockey team.

Worth a try. There would appear to be, despite success, a ceiling on the number of regular punters. If we could average 1500 a week I think we'd be doing well.

The season ticket idea is something Glasgow Clan ice hockey do through their being a buddy scheme. I think it works for them

NDL fixtures have now been released and it looks like Edinburgh have a meeting of some kind every Friday until September when dates are reserved for " Finals". Aren't they expecting to make progress in the KO Cup or BSN competitions - possibly not - but how will rain offs be slotted in. More fixture chaos ahead! Just hope it doesn't involve us!

Maybe it's a Bobby Ewing moment and we really did win, even though we really did anyway. And I'm pretty sure that ain't how you spell "Meteors" either.

Interestingly the photo has now been changed! Though they still don't spell Meteors correctly DWS.

Poole boss Danny Ford admits they are determined to make up for the hurt of missing out on the Championship and KO Cup. “It hurt us last year allowing the league and cup to get away but I can assure those loyal supporters that the riders we have assembled for 2024 are as determined as I am to get those trophies back in our cabinet.”
What a smug sense of entitlement, no wonder everyone hates them.
