Died of bird flu  He was meant to be at the Barnet game but I haven't seen him... Perhaps HE was in the plane crash? Perhaps HE is Mark Devlin?! :shock: |

I must say I like the modern one!
Johno will cry if they change it to anything that complicated...at school he ALWAYS used to draw the badge on pretty much anything in sight!

The solution? Get a local firm to come in a pay for the rebranding under the guise of/as part of a larger sponsorship deal and I'm sure it's do-able. Imagine the positive PR it would generate for such a firm, especially given the clubs current high-profile management.
I'm all for it. Bring back the crest. I loved that train!

Our badge isnt just a random diamond.
Its a robin
Turn it 90 degrees.
The circle is the head, the lines are the legs.
The S obviously represents Swindon
A robin due to out nickname being the The Robins. Whats happened to Rockin' Robin this season? He's out in America coaching at the moment, he said he'd miss the first 2-3 home games. |

Personally, i always had a soft spot for the ST arrow version...when I was 13 I met a girl at Butlins who supported West Ham. On the last night I gave her my ST pin badge in an effort to get inside her knickers...didn't work...regretted it ever since  |
