    I don't know if this has been posted before but IMO the tiger on the club badge looks absolutely crap. It looks like a smiling cartoon character and not remotely intimidating.
    The tiger's eyes at the top of this board look much more unnerving and a drawing of the head from the front with full emphasis on the eyes would look much better. The mouth should be shut or with lips slightly raised and wrinkles under the eyes in a snarling expression. What do you all think and if enough want it changed is there anything we can do?

    I can't say I find it in anyway offensive .
    Granted I've only ever seen a live Tiger once ( Isle of Wight) so I'm hardly an expert . Hang on that might have been a lion.

    At least it's not as bad as the effort on the Ulltra's banner .
    That tiger looked as camp as Christmas and was a bit of an embarrassment .
    Nowhere near manly enough .

    I think a drawn version of this would be a lot more intimidating.
    Sorry if picture doesn't appear, I'm clueless about pasting images.

    Unfortunately though, that's a photo of a real Tiger.

    As I said a drawn version of that. Don't you think the one on the badge looks like Tony the Tiger or is it just me?

    Do I not like that tiger .

    His ( or her ) face is too fat and not wishing to sound racist but he ( or she) is too white .

    Also looks a bit camp .

    I think it looks like an old man laughing. In fact, it's the second most ****ish Feline I've ever seen and I want to smack it in the face.

    Ok so it looks like a camp old man smiling. I admit defeat, but the one on the badge looks like it's about to give me a cheeky wink.

    I can actually see what you mean .
    If Sid James went to a kids party and the bra strap snapped on the bird who was painting his face that is what you would get .
    He looks like a laughing Sid James .

    That is exactly the analogy I was going to make.

    I think the main problem with the badge one is that it has warm human eyes with big pupils whereas tiger's eyes have small pupils that look a lot more cold blooded.
