Colinjb Posted 5 August, 2015 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.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 5 August, 2015 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'
Plastic Posted 5 August, 2015 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
spyinthesky Posted 5 August, 2015 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
DT Posted 5 August, 2015 Author 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.
warsash saint Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Should be Markus riding a gold velociraptor and stamping on a crescent moon imo Someone with Photoshop skills needs to mock that up!
Saint_Abroad Posted 5 August, 2015 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.

Make it a black female teenage Jesus.
grezz Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 We need to think of bring the youth and other demographics in. Make it a black female teenage Jesus. The divine one needs some sh1t ink so no one is in any doubt this is football we are talking about.
the_emu Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 Isn't complete without a No Vacancies sign to reflect our BnB heritage
dellboypete Posted 5 August, 2015 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
Colinjb Posted 5 August, 2015 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 The best I could do at short notice....
mcjwills Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 We need to think of bring the youth and other demographics in. Make it a black female teenage Jesus. You forgot being a pregnant lesbian
Plastic Posted 5 August, 2015 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
Lighthouse Posted 5 August, 2015 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.
The9 Posted 5 August, 2015 Posted 5 August, 2015 The best I could do at short notice.... Good to see UTFS catching on...
AussieDog Posted 5 August, 2015 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
