Montreal Expansion Thread - Name, Colors, Logo/Kit Design

I was hoping they would all die in an RFK stadium collapse.

Too bad none of our hopes worked out.

 

I was hoping the stadium would be built in Virginia so nothing would complicate DC United's ongoing (at the time) plans for a stadium in DC...

 

I hope that someone your way comes up with a few 100 million so you can take your team back.

 

Uh... 2008?

There's a beer for anyone who can name the three players in the picture.

 

I dont want to rob a beer from someone, but I can name them.

 

By the way, Joey Saputo mentioned yesterday that the new logo would be revealed around the first week of August, and that the jersey would be revealed later in October, just in time for your Christmas shopping.

 

Looks like the colors are staying the same but they will have the BMO logo on the jerseys

According to this story, the Impact's new MLS logo will be revealed this Saturday.

 

and it is in the very last line of the article.... that should be top news!

 

not a single preview of the logo...not even a leaked cellphone photo?...

Weird

 

You can wait just like the others

 

halftime of tonight's game

 

Do you know if the logo unveiling will be streamed on any legal internet feed?

 

radio canada website, most likely

 

logo is posted on their Facebook page

 

I wonder if the new kits will have black and blue vertical stripes?

 

Very nice logo.

Can someone explain to me what each of the elements on the crest mean??

 

Fleur de Lys = Quebec in general. four stars = founders of Montreal (Irish, Scottish, English, French). I don't think he went into detail as to what the stripes mean though.

 

"New Logo has a giant fleur de lis in the upper left corner of the shield with four stars surrounding it, the words Montreal Impact in the sleeve, and black and blue vertical stripes in the lower part of the shield."

Has already been answered.

 

To answer my own question :

Seems to represent the flag.

 

that would be sweet
