Hartlepool United - new logo

 

The badge that Hartlepool United wear on their shirts today focuses on the town’s maritime history with a large ship’s wheel. In the past they placed emphasis on a ‘hart’ (a stag), the animal from which the town took its name. I’ve restored the hart, taking a lead from their 1985 crest (pictured) in particular, and formed a football with its antlers.

This badge could also serve Mansfield Town or Ross County in a pinch.
