Personally i like the new kits, i liked the ukraine kit design and ours is the same just a different colour, i'm undecided about the badge, it's not too bad, but not the greatest either.

Badge is terrible - it's ok going back to a traditional style badge, but if so, do it properly!
If the badge is to have meaning (the whole point behind this) and people on here have raised some very sensible factual and aesthetic errors, there is no reason why it shouldn't be amended....unless they've managed in the space of a day to have all the kits ordered and lotto have managed to produce them all in a day.
A bit of common sense is needed - and as trivial as the matter is, a chance for this lot to get a tiny slice of respect (I said tiny)

 thank you. i must say that i prefer it to the current one. whilst we're at it, i think they should erect a huge sign on that stretch of grass in between the car park and the magic roundabout to tell the world what the next fixture is. Now thats a good idea! I can see lambert suggesting it as his own. Go on Ben you know you like brownie points  I'll beat him to it - the Trust suggested this three years ago (and it was an old idea then). IIRC Sandy muttered something about the council not allowing it. But then we did suggest it at the same time as suggesting the ticket prices were a smidge on the high side. Back on topic, I was especially impressed that while rambling on about how proud they are of the heritage in the "Salubritas et Industria" motto, they managed to mistranslate it :shock: (although to be fair, only very slightly and I am being a pedant about nouns and adjectives) |

my grandad was a town fan and train guard.and my great grandad drove trains most famously the king george v.
i think they would be embarrased by the new badge if not angered. Both my grandfathers were railwayman, as was my father.......they wouldn't have given a shit. Coming from the generation that fought the Great War, campaigned for worker's rights...survived the economic depression of the 30's, then WWII and post war austerity....they tended to see the bigger picture. PS that doesn';t mean the Board shouldn't have got it right....with their "option 3" were they not proud of the job they did reg? i know the two men i mentioned were very proud of it themselves as are their remaining familys Proud Englishmen, proud Swindonians, proud railwaymen....STFC fans, but they wouldn't have worried about something piddly like a badge, after all we ddin't have one at all until 1974, by which time my 2 grandfathers were gone. Correct me if I'm wrong Mr Smeeton, but we did have a badge pre-74 just not on the shirt - there is a photo of Danny Willaims at Wembely in 69 wearing a club blazer with the old crest that was used til 91 on it. |
