So we have all probably seen the thank you board that has been installed at the quarters with the skull and cross swords crest. If you haven’t seen it, take a look here: gaschat.co.uk/thread/16388/quarters-training-ground-thread?page=55Personally, I love it and think it’s a brilliant and striking image that could be used as the clubs crest. It’s modern, simple, striking and would be great for branding/merchandising. Whilst changing a clubs crest can be seen as a cardinal sin, I also think it can have a positive effect. We have also had around 5 changes of crest in our history so it’s not something that is particularly precious to us. So I thought, what does everyone else think? Should we change our current crest to the one on the board or keep our existing one? Or change it, but to something else? Answers on a post card. |

I don’t think it can do any harm!

I've never liked our current badge.
Would love that new one though.

I completely agree with the merchandise comment. Plus I think it would help to increase the fanbase, in the same way St Pauli have a cult following.

I love our current badge and don’t understand the hate it gets. I think it’s iconic.
If it was to change though, I do quite like that one on the board.

No way - I love our current crest. For me it’s the best in the EFL.
That one is a bit too American & childish for me, it’s fine to put it in T-shirt’s, jumpers etc as an official merchandise crest - but no way for the official club crest and shirt.

I agree, and I’m far to old to be changing the tattoo on my arm now! |

Got our current one tattooed on my back so don’t want to change even if the one on my back is all smudged now with colours faded and all the text Is unreadable...still love it haha
More than happy for the club to use it on leisure wear mind, if anything that is genius

Totenkopf is the name SS Nazis regiments called the skull on their badge. If adopted it should increase our away support, all those neo Nazis out there will see it as a real symbol that needs support.

I love our current one I think it always stands out above any other crest. It’s a no from me , but I do like the design on the boards.

Our current badge has a few colours in it and some white. On a top it stands out I’ve been in many countries and suddenly seen it and known straight away that’s a gashead. The Quarters badge is good as well but on a blue or black top it wouldn’t stand out and you’d struggle to see it or distinguish it as BRFC. So it’s a no from me as well. But it’s a great gesture from the club to say “thank you” to all those who did give up their ST. UTG! |

Piracy’s a crime, we should either distance ourselves from that or be a little subtle with it.
How about a parrot or a greyhound eating a sausage roll.
