It's not a Swastica, but it has all the hallmarks of one.
The colours are red and black.
Angular design, straight edges arranged in directions reminiscent of a Swastica.
In many ways, whether or not it's a close resemblance to a Nazi emblem isn't the actual issue.
The real issue is whether people look at it and make that association, intended or not.
If I was on the far right (I'm not) and wanted a proxy Swastica that wasn't the real deal but would work for those 'in the know', then it might fit the bill nicely.
I think it's a poor logo for a modern club where inclusiveness and family values should be promoted, not something that could be used as a banner for thugs.
Apologies if I sat on the fence about this one..
