saint_disco123 Posted 9 July, 2013 Share Posted 9 July, 2013 With all the kit changes and things has anything thought as well that our Southampton badge design might be in danger too? I would be open to see some different designs but surely that would be the final straw with some old fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambol2K9 Posted 9 July, 2013 Share Posted 9 July, 2013 We will at some point, maybe a couple of years down the line. Once we've accepted the red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red&white56 Posted 9 July, 2013 Share Posted 9 July, 2013 I sincerely hope not, if this comes on top of playing in red then it will be a real test of faith in Nicola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kraken Posted 9 July, 2013 Share Posted 9 July, 2013 I sincerely hope not, if this comes on top of playing in red then it will be a real test of faith in Nicola. It really won't.

I've heard that its going to be an all red badge to go with an all red kit. A wise choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB Fry Posted 9 July, 2013 Share Posted 9 July, 2013 I've heard that its going to be an all red badge to go with an all red kit. A wise choice. Perfect. I'd not heard that. Great news. My mate works with the designers of the matchday magazine and I know they are going for an all red cover for every match this season. Sounds like a really striking design, especially in a much smaller format, more pages and with a hard cover. Iconic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 9 July, 2013 Share Posted 9 July, 2013 I've heard that its going to be an all red badge to go with an all red kit. A wise choice. It's not an all-red kit (unless you change the colour balance in VLC ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfc1971 Posted 9 July, 2013 Share Posted 9 July, 2013 Choice one = New re-branded modern Club with ambition, well run and competing for honours .

Gambol2K9 Posted 10 July, 2013 Share Posted 10 July, 2013 I wouldn't mind a badge change, i don't think ours is brilliant, i just don't trust that the new one would be any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Sir Robin Posted 10 July, 2013 Share Posted 10 July, 2013 I reckon this'll definitely happen. Probably next season. Seems to me that Cortese is big into cutting costs to maximise profits. Opting for a template design kit rather than a bespoke one was one way of doing this, a monotone badge is cheaper to reproduce en masse, a simpler design will be cheaper still. Wouldn't be at all surprised to see something even as simple as just a gold halo. Frankly, if it means more money to spend on players, and our ascendency continues, it's fine by me!

oldskoolsi Posted 10 July, 2013 Share Posted 10 July, 2013 I care less about whether we get a new badge than about stripes. I don't think the badge is that old comparatively and, to me, would be a more acceptable rebranding than going all red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascadia Saint Posted 10 July, 2013 Share Posted 10 July, 2013 I've heard that its going to be an all red badge to go with an all red kit. A wise choice. With an all-red sponsor hopefully, then we can just buy the teamwear template. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sentry Posted 21 July, 2013 Share Posted 21 July, 2013 I had a spare 10 mins at lunch and had a play. I think our crest/badge is DREADFUL but at the same time, it is ours aand I am kinda fond of it. This was just for fun really. I basically kept the whole think but modernised it and just got rid of the football, scarf and halo (those are the tacky things IMO that are not needed). I changed the water to red so we have a kind of red and white theme in there. Tried to keep the colours to a miniumum, saints colours, red, white and black. Just could not decide on the tree being original, black or gold (as I lost the halo and (generally) our away kits are yellow and blue so wanted to keep a bit of yellow).

Lokky_saint Posted 21 July, 2013 Share Posted 21 July, 2013 NC hates the colour red but love the designs! IMHO I always thought our badge is the best looking in any of the divisions we have been in. Recon the only thing that will happen is the colour change to a silver outline, just like n our away kit this season - was changed at SMS last season. Won't be surprised if we ditch red from the strip completely in a year or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
