Sheffield United FC Primary Logo
Sheffield United FC is an English football club based in the city of Sheffield, South Yorkshire. The team was founded in 1889 and has a long history associated with its logo designs. Over the years, there have been several changes to the primary logo for Sheffield United FC.
The first iteration of their primary logo dates back to 1900 when it featured a shield with three swords crossed over it and two stars on either side of the shield representing their two League titles at that time. This design remained until 1972 when they introduced a new version that included an eagle as part of its design along with some minor alterations such as changing from red to blue colors and adding more stars around the perimeter signifying additional league titles won by then-current manager Dave Mackay's squad during his tenure at Bramall Lane Stadium (home ground).
In 1997, another revamp was made where they changed both colors again but this time opted for white instead while also introducing a black outline around each element within; this one lasted until 2007 before being replaced once more by what we now know today - featuring just blades/swords along bottom half accompanied by “SHEFFIELD UNITED” lettering above them all set against yellow background inside blue circle shape itself outlined using same color scheme mentioned earlier (black & white). In conclusion, these various iterations throughout decades show how much pride supporters take in maintaining traditional aspects while simultaneously updating their look whenever necessary so that everyone can recognize who you are without sacrificing any originality or identity belonging specifically only to them!

1952 - 1965
The lion on the crest is taken from the Arms of the Dukes of Norfolk, lords of the manor of Sheffield; it appeared also in the Arms of the Talbot family, their predecessors in the lordship. The sheaf of arrows was the main motif in the seals of the Burgery of Sheffield and the Twelve Capital Burgesses, the two bodies which bore the brunt of local government in Sheffield before the creation of the Borough. The three wheatsheaves on a green field were probably chosen at the College of Arms as a play upon the name Sheffield which means "the open space by the River Sheaf."
