Saints changed the ball from the old style football to the newer style just because the design studio who did it at the time only had that newer style of football in their catalogue of images. Plus they said it made it easier to trademark.
Keep the crest as it is. Would like some arsey latin motto though. How about 'procul servo detracta'?
i reckon if we were gunna have a new crest it would of been done for the 125, but they only altered it, so it will be back to the cheesey logo we all love to hate
It is one crest that actually you can easily pick out at a distance. Again it is our heritage keep the old one!!!
I found a picture of your proposed new crest.http://image.shutterstock.com/displ...lly-horse-manure-on-paving-stone-38938873.jpg
I much prefer the crest on this retro shirt although I never managed to suss out what the Latin " Com Southton" mean't. Easily the best crest the club has had.
