totally agree although changing the badge is expensive, but if possible go back to the old one with the train on it that has some meaning !

Change definately, the current badge has no meaning and without meaning to offend the person that designed it , it has the originality,colour scheme and imagination of what a 6 year old would come up with!

The past ones had meaning to them, and said a bit about the town and what its famous for etc. The current one......um an S for swindon.....Green represents the feilds and stuff......the red represents swindon town cos they play in red.
 :| Great.

Change it !

Weren't the circle and lines meant to represent a turntable and train tracks?

I think the current one is ace! Maybe if there was a bit of blue in it as well, that would be class.

i read in a swindon town book that the lines going forward were meant to resemble the club going forward....?? bit crap really as it isn't true of course.

I just read it's meant to be a travelling football  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

It looks like someone did the design using fuzzy felt before putting it on paper  :D

I'd much prefer a more traditional crest or emblem to the current badge which looks a bit like a hangover from the late 80's early 90's school of design.

I think Mark D has actually said that it's one of the things they have looked at but are going to look at it again when we get the stadium sorted.

Yes but I think maybe as long as two years, sadly he's dissapeared of late.

Are you still tending the hallowed turf triseros?
