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.

Hearts badge the best for me. 

That tattoo above, why the comma in 19,97?!? ?

And what looks like a little penis in the palm.

You might not believe this RenfrewBlue but I am 100% in agreement with you on everything there :ok: :shocked:

anyone know the relevance of an Elephant?

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.

There's pictures online if you Google it.  Looks more like Snoopy lying down to me!!

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.

i like that montrose badge.

Don't lie.  

I like the Utd one from the eighties and early nineties.  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.

Couldn't find a big enough version of it on a tangerine background.
