What’s Inside This Collection
The Big Six and Historic Giants
Manchester United’s crest carries a red devil above a ship, the ship a nod to Manchester’s industrial trading history on its canals. Liverpool’s badge is topped by the Liver Bird, the same mythical bird that has stood as the city of Liverpool’s own symbol for centuries. Arsenal’s crest centers on a cannon, tracing back to the club’s origin among workers at the Royal Arsenal armaments factory in Woolwich, which also gave the club its name. Chelsea’s badge features a rampant lion, while Tottenham Hotspur’s crest is topped by a cockerel standing on a ball, a reference to the “Hotspur” nickname and the fighting cockerels once bred with spurs on their legs. Manchester City’s circular badge carries a golden eagle drawn from Manchester’s own historic civic heraldry.
Nickname-Linked Crests
West Ham United’s badge shows two crossed hammers, tracing back to the club’s roots as the works team of the Thames Ironworks shipbuilding company. Everton’s crest features Prince Rupert’s Tower, a real historic building once known as the Everton Lock-Up, alongside the club’s Latin motto “Nil Satis Nisi Optimum,” meaning “Nothing But The Best.” Leicester City’s crest carries a fox, matching the club’s long-standing “Foxes” nickname and Leicestershire’s fox-hunting history. Norwich City’s crest features a canary, a nod to the city’s old tradition of canary breeding brought over by Flemish weavers, and it’s the source of the club’s “Canaries” nickname. Swansea City’s badge shows a swan, matching its own “Swans” nickname.
City and Regional Symbolism
Newcastle United’s crest draws on the city of Newcastle’s own coat of arms, including seahorses and castle towers referencing the city’s medieval castle heritage. Sunderland’s badge includes a ship, honoring the city’s long shipbuilding history on the River Wear. Aston Villa’s crest carries a lion, and the club itself was founded by members of a Wesleyan chapel cricket team in the Aston area of Birmingham. Crystal Palace takes its name directly from the Crystal Palace exhibition hall, a real 19th-century glass-and-iron building that once stood near the club’s home area after being relocated from London’s 1851 Great Exhibition.
Founding-Era and Working Clubs
Sheffield Wednesday traces back to 1867, among the oldest football clubs in the world, and takes its name from a Wednesday cricket club whose players branched off to form a football side that played on their usual midweek day off. Stoke City is regularly cited as one of the oldest professional clubs in English football, with a nickname, “The Potters,” tied to Stoke-on-Trent’s pottery industry. Blackburn Rovers and Bolton Wanderers, nicknamed “The Trotters,” were both founding members of the Football League in 1888. Burnley earned its “Clarets” nickname after adopting Aston Villa’s claret and blue colors following Villa’s championship success in the 1880s.
The Rest of the Collection
The set is rounded out by Charlton Athletic, Wigan Athletic, Birmingham City, Middlesbrough, Hull City, Fulham, Southampton, West Bromwich Albion, and Leeds United, each contributing another recognizable crest from England’s top-flight football history.
What These Pages Do
The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7, and the bold, simple shapes on crests like the West Ham hammers or the Swansea swan give that age range a clear, manageable outline to work with, while intricate shield-and-crest designs like Newcastle’s or Chelsea’s reward older fans who enjoy more detail.
A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions, and a fixed, symmetrical subject, like a club crest, gives a colorist a contained, low-pressure task with a clear finish line.
Beyond the coloring itself, many of these crests carry a real piece of club or city history, from a shipbuilding trade to a centuries-old civic symbol, giving a finished page an extra layer of interest for football fans of any age.
How to Color the England Team Logo Pages Well
- Match real club colors: Manchester United’s red, Chelsea’s blue, and Liverpool’s red-and-gold trim all give an authentic result when matched to the real kit colors.
- Shield crests: color the outer shield shape first, then any internal bands or divisions, and finish with the central figure, such as the Chelsea lion or the Arsenal cannon, last.
- Animal crests: a light base coat followed by darker shading along the outline helps figures like the Norwich canary or the Swansea swan stand out clearly.
- Building and object crests: keep Everton’s tower or the various ships in gray or brown stone tones so they read as solid, three-dimensional structures rather than flat shapes.
- Text and banners: many crests include a club name or motto on a ribbon; a single consistent color for all lettering keeps the badge easy to read once finished.
