“It looks like a Nazi symbol” – Corriere.it

All against the new logo of La Spezia, relegated to B last June after the knockout in the play-off against Verona (3-1). The supporters are in turmoil and a collection of signatures has also started in the city. The accusation that the logo recalls neo-Nazi and fascist symbols. That stylized eagle, set in the acronym, was not liked at all. Horrible, it looks like a neo-Nazi symbol, it offends the history of our city, just some of the declarations and protests that are mounting in the Ligurian city.

The change of letters from Asc to Sc is simply a question of the company name, while the problem also concerns the colors of the new logo: now black prevails over white, the official color of the jersey. Another change that outraged the fans so much that they even promoted a campaign on change.org to promote its elimination. You cannot trample on a centenary symbol that has made the history of Spezia Calcio in this way, as stated in the petition.

We have created a logo that our fans can be proud of, which is highlighted in the company’s presentation video, where the composition of the symbol is explained: a dominant eagle and the intertwined letters SC, resembling an anchor.
