West Ham fans back badge change

West Ham fans have voted in favour of plans for a new club badge before the move to the Olympic Stadium, reports BBC Sport. The Hammers intend to introduce the crest on shirts when they move from the Boleyn Ground for the 2016-17 season.

In an online vote, conducted over 48 hours by SMG Yougov, 56% of fans said they liked the new design.

The redesign will see a castle, linked to the current Boleyn Ground home, removed, and the word 'London' added underneath two hammers.
