Something like this would be more contemporary:

I'm sorry but what the hell is that?

The current Metropol logo may be ageing now, however to move from a decent design to something that looks like it uses the SEGA font is ridiculous! Is it actually the SEGA font? If it is then lets be honest, it was dated pretty much from its creation! I sincerely hope it isn't used as the new logo - talk about killing off a good brand.
You think? That's a shame. I was considering launching a whole network of pres-related websites featuring such logos.

Sounds like SOMEONE has never heard of a little thing called "Olympic Legacy"

If you're going to make a new logo, I suggest basing it on the much-lambasted London 2012 logo, but match it with the current logo by colouring it red and white. Don't forget a shadow to make it blend in.

Either way, we're not having a new logo and that's that.
