    I must be in the minority here. I am not sure i like it. i think it is because i like our current badge so much. just my opinion like. But not sure on it. Maybe when it is on a shirt it will look better.

    I get the sense of it being old fashioned crossed with modern which makes it perfect for the centenary year for me.

    Don't like that. It looks like a badge you'd make on Fifa when creating your own team.

    It has to represent a hundred years of The Swans so a touch of old and new, and i think it will look even better when it goes on a shirt it will i suppose be black with a touch of orange and as its going on a white background it should stand out well

    Thing is, I can't see anything "new" in there. Looks vero old fashioned for my liking.

    Sorry but this badge looks like a million others from other clubs. Pompous and full of itself. I love our current logo and they should have come up with something that incorporated the now well-recognized swan instead. A year in the Prem and we go and change the damn thing! <doh> Hope it's not permanent.

    Ugh!

    Second one is top notch. As for the one we have now it's good because it has three characteristics - simplicity, it's recognisable and modern. KEEP IT!
