Maybe we should try that more often.

It should be for the team to get the fans up for it, not the other way round.

Re: The Spirit and Buzz Has Gone

This small club mentality needs to die once and for all.Its a business that carries no passengers.If you want league football and not to be bouncing along the bottom all the time that mentality needs to die.It is inevitable that the consequence of that mentality dieing,that the small club community...

Re: The Spirit and Buzz Has Gone

There have been a lot of comments knocking around, similar to this, that the club is starting to lose its way from what it was when it really was acommunity and when you could go and have a chat to the manager or the players in the bar after the game, when they did a proper walk round the pitch afte...

Yes that one. Recognisably the same club, evolution not revolution and all that.

Re: Logo gate, some thoughts

Here is a new club badge done properly, modernising it without making it unrecognisable from what went before, oddly enough by our opponents this Saturday. http://www.vehiclegrafix.co.uk/prodimages/Shrewsbury_Town_FC_medium.jpg http://www.fsf.org.uk/assets/Uploads/_resampled/croppedimage613299-Shrew...

Re: Logo gate, some thoughts

I like Mikes design too but Im not sure how it encapsulates all this nostalgia and "non league heritage" you are all going on about. Its just a coat of arms with Dagenham and Redbridge written underneath.At least the new one has the clubs founding date on it.Unless people can read the clu...

Re: Logo

From the reaction on Facebook and Twitter it's far more then a handful of people who have issues with it. Honestly don't see how you view it as trivial (other then a wind up), I consider it one of the most important changes that the club can make. It's our national identity, and we've got for the m...

Re: Logo

Obviously this has given me a great opportunity to wind the more delicate people up on here once again,but to be honest I don't mind the new badge or really care about such triviality.Being serious for a change though,I do get the points you make about the erosion of the good old days/clubs roots i...

Re: Logo gate, some thoughts

So the club have had a competition for months to re-design the Logo and now its all been decided,only now do people want to have their crack at it.If really pushed Id say the old one is a bit cluttered with too much fine detail and unless you were actually shagging someone with the shirt on they'd ...

Logo gate, some thoughts

I kind of appreciate what the club are trying to do here is simplifying the badge to make it easier to print and embroider, although as I recall, when it was embroidered on the shirts a little larger a few kits ago (which one was that?), it really stood out, was readable and distinctive. Reaction to...

I did know who they were,they asked for my autograph before the game :lol: Knowing how touchy delicate and easy to offend with a little joke most of you are on here I was guaranteed an angry mortally wounded response off someone.Wasnt expecting it to be you though to be honest.Thought Id snare one ...
