New kit 21/21

WTF has happened to the badge :man_facepalming: I give up.

Interesting. Some sort of green, white red hoop strip?

They took that tattered one down and just put this up, it’s a lot better.

To be brutally honest, I’ve never liked our badge. It was fine back in the early days of our existence, but I don’t see the relevance to today’s society or the town.
Our nickname is “The Saddlers,” not the Swifts, it reflects the town’s importance in leather goods manufacturing (especially saddles), not a very fast bird.
I would like to see a badge reflecting our connection to what the town is famous for - manufacturing saddles and other leather products.
I don’t think the club will ever change the badge, it was just a thought.

You would think they’d done that after reading what was being posted on here .

But should they really need to read how poor the shirt pictures are ffs

Certainly the most successful badge. Coinciding with the promotion years

It was, not too keen on the black in it though.

Not sure if already mentioned but does anyone find it strange we are unveiling the new kit on a Saturday?

I must admit I do like our new badge , its not to busy with different shapes going on inside it with shields and what have you , just plain and simple.

If we are looking for a combination of heritage, tradition and sheer class, then surely there is only one badge to go for?

I’d agree but I think it was a bit of an own goal having gold and black in it personally.

:joy::rofl: just find it strange very rare you get anything out the club on a Saturday with regards to anything off the pitch. Why not unveil it today?

Fantastic design. Love the Reuleaux triangle.

It’s either a tea towel or we have just bought some Irish tricolours :laughing:

You can see why we had Billy Bescot ffs … :joy:
