Colinjb Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 Yes, have always loved how the badge crams in as much as it can relevant to the city. It is a classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 Yes, have always loved how the badge crams in as much as it can relevant to the city. It is a classic. Yep. A few times I've been asked 'what does it mean, though' and after explaining the different elements I usually get a 'that's quite smart/cool/well-thought out' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katalinic Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 I'd hate it if we tried to "modernise" it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plastic Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 It's bloody awful. Need a lion / eagle / t-rex in it. Something to get the testosterone flowing rather than fûcking trees & flowers. Should be Markus riding a gold velociraptor and stamping on a crescent moon imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyinthesky Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 Some time in the past there was a Monk holding a staff with a halo over his head This was the emblem on the first Saints shirt I ever bought (from Toomers I think) White with red piping Wore it to death as a kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Posted 5 August, 2015 Author Share Posted 5 August, 2015 I can't think of many crests in world football that are better. We are ace. And our song is brilliant. No, Spurs, it's not yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_Abroad Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 It's bloody awful. Need a lion / eagle / t-rex in it. Something to get the testosterone flowing rather than fûcking trees & flowers. Should be Markus riding a gold velociraptor and stamping on a crescent moon imo I like this. I question the need for a football in the crest. Isn't it implied that we're involved in football related activities, regardless of a football in the crest? Since we have a religious theme/background, a black Jesus would be appropriate. Maybe Markus riding a raptor and black Jesus shouting the words "It's Judgement Day!" Let's run with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make it a black female teenage Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dellboypete Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 It's a great badge but I still prefer the original with three roses - simple and still as per the City of Southampton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plastic Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 The best I could do at short notice.... Now that's a fookïn Yorkie bar badge. 50ft banner at Vitesse please, would get plenty of screen time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 I think a spotty teenage skinhead in a Kappa tracksuit with a can of Tennent's would encapsulate the vibe of our great city. Perhaps if there's room we could have a burned out Citroen and someone throwing up outside Bedford's place as the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AussieDog Posted 5 August, 2015 Share Posted 5 August, 2015 THat blue monstrosity at the bottom is poorly placed. It needs moving to the right a bit, underneath the raptor's arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
