What's not to like. I like our crest anyway, and this doesn't spoil it. I suppose it could have been better, but it could also have been much, much worse. (A grinning smile of Rupert Lowe holding an "I love Saints" banner would make a terrible crest...)

I like the revisions apart from the rather gormless "125" and red blob.

 

That should be left how it was, or replaced with a picture of Markus' head IMO.

 

Oi! Photoshoppers...

 

can't believe no one has done the honours yet. :)

Would of preffered this.

 

In your 4 word sentence, you have managed to grammatically f*ck up twice.

 

Would 'have' and 'preferred'. Good effort though.

 

As for the crest itself, your image there is much better. As said earlier, the 125, where the football should be, is just horrible.

I know he's a miserable bastard anyways, but he couldn't have looked less enthused to be here...

I voted 'not sure' because I'm not the greatest fan of our current crest in any case and would have liked something like the YMA mock up posted previously. As others have said, it will grow on people and making the halo all gold, is a definite improvement.

Looks good IMO.

 

I can see why some are complaining about the red ball but at the end of the day, it's just a badge.

 

I'm more interested to see the kit that it'll be on!

it might be "just a badge" but it is the symbol of the club, our emblem that is shown in the media and it is ABSOLUTE RUBBISH.

 

The current badge only looked decent with the old style football. It then changed to the new style one which looked shlt and this one is even worse.

 

1/10 for effort

The gold touch is nice, but i agree with pretty much everyone here - the red ''125'' is wrong. The wrong colour and the wrong font.

 

it's just a crest though at the end of the day, it will look so much different when it's on the shirts imo.

Agree, would prefer...

...the badge should reflect the 'city' the football club represents, our current crest should have had a 'kin big ship rather than a 'New Forest' tree on it!

Get rid of the bingo ball and replace it with a football and get rid of the gold and replace it with black.

 

Here's my design...

Why that and not something from 1885 to 1974? Why only one based on the 1974 badge?

Everything about it is really nice except the 125. Really don't like the look of that. But yh nice effort and maybe it'll grow on me. Be good to see it on the kits next season.

Posted

not very inspiring tbh, I agree with all the bingo ball/dodgy font comments

 

looks like something knocked up by the parish council for their annual fate

I remember this it used to be on the side of the buses

maybe if the black bit at the bottom was red then then it would be a nice balance of red and gold, however i agree that when sewn onto an actual shirt it will be better, should have gone for a retro football in there

I can't edit what I type because I'm not a full member. I typed that in a hurry, sorry it bothers you but I'm not on here for English lesson.

 

I think the majority would prefer having the football instead of the red 125.

I agree with the majority of people who hate the red blob. The gold is brilliant and really smart, but the 125 looks like it's been done on WordArt

That on the shirt would be ace+1

Not sure TBH - that 125 logo where the ball should be looks like it comes from Comic Relief on first sight. Maybe it'll grow on me!

 

Will look alot better when stitched rather than printed... the 125 wont look so in your face when sown... will look good on a shirt I think

 

I don't understand why we need the 125 on the crest. The two dates tell us that there is 125 years of the club. Put the ball back on.

 

I don't like the 125 but I'm not going to cry about it. I still think the kit will look awesome.

Agree with the above, I can't wait to get the new sponsorless shirt the red blob will be insignificant.

Meh, it's okay. Not a huge fan of the 125 Comic Relief ball at the top, but the rest of it is fine. Just thought we'd have something a bit more different to celebrate the 125 years rather than just changing around a few colours and replacing the football with a clown's nose. Still, i'm sure we'll all think it's great when we see it on the shirts, would be quite unfair to write it off now!

Assuming it sits on a red sash, the red blob / nose / lottery ball / bingo ball / bubblegum will just blend into the background anyway.

 

But it does look a tad pants standing alone, and I do dislike the tacky gold.

 

I still saif "yes" though, could be worse.

That is great. Different, atmospheric and imposing

You can please some of the people some of the time...

 

I quite like it, but agree the red nose is less than convincing.

 

I wonder if a controlled voting system on a few designs for the new home kit and anniversary crest might have been the way forward. By controlled of course, I mean skate sobotage proof.

I demand it be on an alternative voting system,or I refuse to play.
