Like my local sides crest (Tipton Town)
Pirateeeeees !
Is that ship on the United crest to represent the Manchester Ship canal?
Rotherham's makes me sad to be a football fan
It looks like a mummified dick is about to attack
What's with Valencia and the bat thing?
Ajax one is class. Liverpool have a nice crest as well 
"attack" is not a word I'd like to see in a sentence along with mummified dick, if I'm honest.
Guangzhou's slogan is king. "Be the best for ever"
There's a bat on the coat of arms of Valencia (the city), probably some random heraldry rather than anything meaningful.
I like most of the Valencian clubs' crests
Valencia
Villarreal
Levante
Zaragoza have a classy one as well.
Palermo's looks like a 30s movie poster
always liked juve, milan and inter's crests.
Cesena's is different from the usual lions or eagles..
And Catania's with random elephant
Bari then again went completely wrong with their animal themed crest...
what an abomination

sampdoria - cool as feck
crests on the continent are much more interesting and better than english ones.

It's everywhere there- it's on the Bacardi bottle too I think.
Some more iconic ones:
Oh, and this is pretty cool
That Sampdoria badge looks like a Gorillaz album cover.It's not an England flag, it's the flag of Milan.
The club does have an English connection though as it was founded by two English men, as a "Football and Cricket club".
That's why it's official name is A.C. Milan, and not A.C. Milano.
That takes some of the shine off it for me.
I like this one.
EDIT: Oh, and this is my favourite United badge:
What's the design on the Sampdoria crest supposed to be? It looks like a scruffy man smoking a pipe.
That's exactly what it is!
It's Baciccia, or St John the Baptist in scruffy fisherman form.
There are some old ones that are shockers/classics
As much as I hate the admit it Chelsea have a classy badge
Though in all fairness it was like that before Roman and the unclassiness that came with him

I like most of the Spanish and Italian ones. Most of the American ones are bad but I do like the Portland Timbers.
How do we classify if badges are classy or not?
I mean lot of clubs have something that significantly represents something important/close to the club.
Also most new/recent club badges will look shit compared to the old ones.

Actually.....
First proper badge
The badge Ken Bates introduced in the 80s...
The badge from 2004...
No, it's to represent trade.
The old Sunderland badge was good
Classic
Guimarães
I like this one.
Almost as bad as The Crew, it's the old Kansas City Wiz.
I hate the modern Arsenal one, it looks as if its been patched up on MS Paint by a bunch of 11 year olds. Give me our iconic 'Victoria Concordia Crescit' crest every day of the week, my old 97-98 shirt gives me daily memories.
All of the early MLS crests were awful
I hate Man City's because of their 3 stars for a "continental feel".
Brondby, I like this one.
I like this one.
Random ones...
wtf
These are cool:
Atalanta (1970s)
Beira Mar (1990s)

Elche CF's is cool.
My homeland biggest club, probably due to it's origins, had a similar crest to Benfica. When we were unexpectedly promoted to the Primeira Liga, some games looked like this:
-
Notice the birds are different. Benfica's symbol is an eagle, whilst Santa Clara's is either a "Milhafre" or an "Açor".
First settlers saw "Milhafres" and thought they were "Açores", hence the name of our islands - Azores.
In 2011 the crest changed to this. The nine stars represent the nine islands, not Champions League titles, if you're wondering:

Looking at the title of this thread on the main page I thought.. What a ridiculous thread.. How much of this boring shite could you discuss.
Then some of these logo's are terrible.. LOL gave me a good laugh.
Lol
I like my home town clubs logo.
ONGC FC
Maybe it's just me but I always liked Southampton and WBA

This is top notch to be fair

Yeah that was a confusing statement
