Go for it @BRISTOL86 , look forward to seeing it - as long as long as one of your tweaks isn't Baldock usurping the Robin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 See I'm not a fan of the Robin in that badge, it's far too basic, for my liking. I'd much rather they went with a new Robin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonM88 Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Do find it a bit odd that the badges are different materials, the robin is weaved in, and the crest is something different. The crest does look a bit big and clunky, like it could be quite heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you make it a bit less so, without it being overly aggressive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Only one way to settle it: have a Robin sitting on a castle, with a medieval ship sailing under the Sususpension Bridge in the background. All watched by two unicorns with footballs stuck on their horns. Job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same basic design principles (robin on ball with suspension bridge) but modernised, decent font, basically so it doesn’t look like early 90s clip art!

If @Spike really must have 1984, perhaps George Orwell instead of the Robin? Or George Orwell and Baldock on the Bridge to keep @BRISTOL86 happy as well? That would definitely be unique.

Warwickshire Red Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Much like Wolves, Forest and Derby, the badges look cleaner without the club name. Just the bridge, robin and ball will do for me. Fans should recognise our badge without us having to spell it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd wager that if you put up 10 other teams crests who have a similar type design but with their names removed then a person with an active interest in lower league football would get at least 7-8 right. In fact I just did this in a little over 90 seconds.

But the likes of Coventry, Newcastle and Sunderland have a similar type of crest as we do, yet all are pretty distinctive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hated that kit as well. One of our biggest problems as a club is not embracing tradition, constant bloomin tinkering. It annoys me. we should go back to mustard and burgundy then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
