I prefer the white rose to our current badge.

    No....

    I was part of that badge building exercise when that badge came in...</p>

    Allan Clarke went for the white rose due to his obvious Leeds connection.</p>

    I was about 7 at the time and came up with a collier design that the club loved but the kit designers didn't.</p>

    That is btw a big fat FACT.</p>

    If I could use paint I'd show you it but unfortunately I can't and I've had too many sherries.</p>

    My old man drew a picture of a 1970s prostitute with big jugs.</p>

    The last bit was a complete and utter lie btw.</p>

    The Oakwell badge yes (or a modified version) but not the plain white rose....always hated that, it said nothing about the club at all, maybe incorporate a white rose into another design.

    Agreed - current badge excellent, professional, dignified and say's something about Barnsley's proud industrial heritage.

    Toby Tyke?? - What message would that give out??- oh yeah, Cartoon Character - Cartoon Club. No thanks.

    Too right mate.

    I think the suits would call it 'corporate branding'. The current logo gives off much better vibes than Toby Tyke.

    ....and yes, i reckon Sky and BBC 1 are taking the piss by showing the old Toby Tyke logo. Eithe that , or they simply don't do their research.

    We should not adopt the white rose on our badge as it has always been part of the Leeds United emblem.
