ErsatzThistle Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Which clubs have the best & worst badges of the forty two teams in the SPFL ? You can include historical badges no longer used by the clubs too. Best - Falkirk, Dumbarton and Livingston Worst - Stenhousemuir and Montrose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I like the ex Falkirk managers.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenfrewBlue Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I like Dumbarton's simply for the inclusion of an elephant. Not sure Rangers badge is up to much, to be fair. Bit dull so probably not the worst. That Montrose one is awful. Is that really what they have on their shirts? ? Celtics is boring like Rangers. Ross county's is just as bad as Montrose. Quite like the Clyde one though. And the slightly Germanic St Johnstone one is good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McTeeko Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Hearts badge the best for me. That tattoo above, why the comma in 19,97?!? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil r Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Hibs beer bottle effort of the late 80s/early 90s takes some beating. I think you can still find it on bottles of cheap Lidl lager. http://s100.photobucket.com/user/DEINNES/media/Hibernian.gif.html Edited December 14, 2016 by neil r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumbarton has an elephant as its emblem and the story goes that it is because the rock is shaped like an elephant, which I had never believed. So I was pretty surprised to discover that it really does resemble an elephant when viewed from a particular part of the road near Langbank.

I was thinking about this the other day funnily enough, and the only angle I can see it at all is driving east from Greenock back to Glasgow.

adamntg Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Is Elephant and Castle in London a coincidence then? In that there's a castle on top of Dumbarton's elephant and there used to be a pub on Dumbarton High st called Elephant and Castle (I think, or was that Nellies? I'll need to ask the wife) edit : just checked and Nellies and Elephant and Castle were one and the same place.

It was 1920 they won and also in 1929 so definitely not a list. Just someone who doesn't know how a date is written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ormond Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Saints current badge was changed to go with Perth's city crest around the time we moved to McDiarmid. They incorporated our then lamb badge into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the DUFC and before it became a "logo", when it was just the lion in the shield. ICT have the worst badge - has got "merger" written all over it.

Potted Heid Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) I've long thought the Aberdeen badge the worst, and I also like the Montrose badge. A lot. Edited December 16, 2016 by Potted Heid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
