It reminded me of something different:


The Derby logo is a mess of what appears to be an assemblage of clipart. The horse neck looks like a two lane highway. The reused rose in a horseshoe still looks like a swirling toilet bowl just after flushing. The chopped off 137 is bad, the date format is weird.
Otherwise, it's a nice logo.

Edit: I knew I had this somewhere:
