    Did anyone else notice that some of the VIP's at the game last night were given QPR baseball caps? Nothing unusual about that. But did anyone notice that they had the old crest on??

    Check out Tony's mate and the cap.

    What do you think?

    Good spot - with our wage bill, they're economising and giving guests old stock...

    Hopefully they'll go back to that crest to remove another of Flav's unwelcome changes...

    I disagree Sooperhoop. Although there's no bigger Flav hater than I, I think the current crest is very nice. Crests change all the time and it wouldn't make sense going back to an old one for me. I do see where you're coming from seeing as its Briatore's baby but forward we must look - not back!

    Cats, badges...I understand the desire to rid ourselves of all things Goon (we'll keep the screen at the visitor's end).

    On the badge, I think the old one looks just that, dated. The new one is a bit too fancy with all the scrolling at the side. I like Arsenal's which is basically a shield with a cannon inside. Something plain like that would be good - I dunno what QPR put instead of a cannon - but please, not a cat, striped or otherwise

    We could try out the old crest on one of the away kits (mango and blue?) and see how we like it. Baby steps and all that..........

    Has to be the old crest. Sometimes tradition is priceless. The new crest is linked to our previous owners and the sh1te image that they created. Bring back the old crest.

    How old do we want to go to????
    I don't mind the new one, took a bit to get used to at first but it's settled now. There are better things to be focused on.

    I think you'll find it is being focussed on, judging by matey's cap last night.
    The badge is Flavio, it has to go.

    Why couldn't he just have an old QPR hat?
    I've no idea who the bloke is, maybe he was an existing R's fan.
    Makes you look less johnny-come-lately with all the old cargaint gear anyway!
    Why not make a new asian themed Logo, completely different to the previous two?

    I'm not sure how it works - are there any rules stopping us changingus changing the logo during the season?

    Also, did they make anything of the fact that TF had flown in supporters for the night? I kind of hope they didn't - talking about it would make it more of a publicity stunt, imo.

    WTF are you on about, sounds like a cross between Cerny Berny and Ted Rogers.
