Ah yeah, you are correct. I must have been thinking of a training shirt. The actual shirt has 'The Reds' and the Rose shield repeated within the fabric. Yep, defo my fav shirt, adds to the originality than just a plain red fabric. Admiral did some good kits back then.
We definitely haven’t got an iconic badge - as posted above we’ve had a mix of 4 - simple letters / oakwell / white rose/ coat of arms, in the last 45 years - so no real consistency. I don’t mind the Toby in the circle - when we used to be on tv they often used it as the badge. I don’t think on a kit it would look any worse than the attached examples
I really like the old Toby badge with the red white and black. Modernise it, make it look a bit more fierce, maybe just make it the head/face and you could have something as iconic as the wolves badge which is probably my favourite of any club badge.
I wonder if we’ll be sponsored by vfiles? Certainly expecting a Toby badge at this rate. Which I don’t think I’ll hate.
Yeah, back in 2013. We had a choice of 5 https://web.archive.org/web/20131111034850/http://www.bebarnsley.com/the-badges
I think from memory we paid a company in Leeds to come up with the badges, so they didn't even outsource this horrible idea to a local company.
