Flaxbourton Red Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Since this season is about to fizzel out, isnt this the right time for Steve L to start consulting with fans about a new badge or bringing back the robin?The attempt to change it last year was bizarre and amaturish.

Flaxbourton Red Posted March 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 a new badge would mean the opportunity for some new decent stock in the city shop.we must lose so much money, as much of what is in our shop is pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ron Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 There are lots of things i would like to see back at the gate, but there is NO one at the club that listens.Just like no one listened to our attempts to get the shirt changed last year, and how no one listened when we wanted a high-profile manager, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Add white shorts to your list of things you want brought back. We are meant to be red & white so we need more white in our kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB. Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 If this is the "bring things back" thread, then I'll just add terracing to the list.Lets see if anything is brought back.I would like to have white shorts and the Robin back too.These things are pretty simple things that can be done to please the fans in my opinion.Will the Club hear our wishes and take action?

WTFiGO!?! Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 500 a side punch-ups anyone ???? I'm just off to get the ball rolling with my 'bring back being allowed to bring girt crates of cider into the ground with you' campaigne.The badge though: wasn't broken and it certainly didn't need fixing so why did they bother? (WTF was all that about? - to put it in my own language)? Oh yeah, silly me, that compulsary attribute of cluenessnes required when being made responsible for making important decisions.By the way, am actually beginning to bore myself with my continued questioning of the muppets that always seem to get themselves into positions of authorety so I'm going to give it a rest (for now .)

Guest revkev Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Keep the City and County of Bristol badge, but let's have white shorts. It's in the 1982 constitution, after the 1981-2 season when we had red shirts and black shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean putting the new badge on a new shirt none of us had seen - us all kicking off about it - and the board forced into removing the badge and polling us on a new shirt as consultation, then I'm Puff Daddy.

Redpepper Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Whilst consultation lets people air their views it often does little to quell disquiet after a decision has been made.You will never get 100% agreement and when a decision is made those whose views were over-looked start griping and moaning that they weren't listened to. If someone did take the decision to present say 3 possible badge designs for fans to vote on. There would be complaints about how the 3 designs were chosen and why we couldn't choose from 5!Say the votes were cast and the winning badge wins 40% of the votes. That immediately means that 60% of people didn't vote for it and therefore the selected badge was chosen by a minority of fans.To my mind this creates more problems than it solves.

LSN Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 So Do IWith regards to the Robin, I'm fed up with local press calling two other local clubs the RobinsBut that's the thing, we are also called the robin. We aren't called the ship and docks are we? dockers? shippers? We are the Robins. I think it's the best design we have anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon the robin would be preferred by over 75% of fans.As for the shirt, shirts are temporary. If I was part of the 60% overlooked - Id get over it.

I for one loved getting the wind knocked out me against a crash barrier. You always ended up next to someone else as well, very social. Nowadays everyone would be suing each other.
