Very retro logo. If we get the same kit designers as F**ham I can see that as the new BFC logo!

Watch out for more wailing and grizzling from certain Beesotted posters because of the title "The number one messageboard for Brentford supporters"! Blah Blah, GPG clique, think they're better fans , wibble.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo

Especially the "profile" "mail" etc ones...just looks awful

 

[Houghton Bee]

Why are all the threads being closed?

 

['Ayes B]

The new image looks good and modern but the GPG letering inthe background when I read it says GGP, probably becuase of the space at the bottom of the P. It might look beeter if a full stop was included i.e. GPG.GPG.

PS Why are so many threads closing...

 

[German Bee]

They aren´t actually closed they just appear that way!

well, we (The GPG) were infringing copyright by including it so i took it off, to be fair, the club had not complained.

I just felt it was right for a brush up, you will have noticed change in some forums too.....

I think the new tarted up board looks excellent, good to have a Links section again. Just one itsy bitsy point though, how about a few more of the independent Bees sites in the Links page, not thinking of any any in particular of course

 

[Bucks Bee]

I think it looks fine - it'll take a bit of getting used to but I'm all for a few changes now and again!!!

!! Nice one Dimbee, your site will be there on Monday,

Send your links into me at [email protected] They don't have to be football related either, if you've seen a really informative site which will benefit most Bees fans, send them in too...

I cheated at the last minute and copied the page from the No to woking site so at the moment we are linking to ourselves!

Dunno if it's already bin said but I'm sick of the "there's only *** days to Rangers". Personally I don't need a count down for when it's their cup final.

If you want to use the badge, why not just ask? After all there is a link on the Brentford FC site under the heading "Have your say". Presumably this is a mutual back-scratching arrangement with no objection from Brentford FC to the badge.

 

[rebus]

fair point but i think it devalues the official logo if all and sundry use it, i think that view is in the minority though..

 

[Edmundo]

Actually, Gary Hargraves has told me that he didn't mind us using the club's crest - but I think it's good to have our own!

Is this like Fulham FC adopting the under 5's summer club logo?
One of my sources says that young, James Mathews (4) was the summer club winner by drawing the badge and was quoted saying “Our new badge has been designed to reflect the core values of the Club. Using key elements from the crest and the widely used Retro FFC logo in the Club’s colours, produces a modern contemporary badge. It symbolises our vision to be progressive, stylish and exciting and we believe it reinforces where we have come from and where we are going” while sipping a glass of milk and eating a digestive biscuit.

Great minds think alike.

I pondered suggesting the same thing, (I didn't suggest it as |I didn't want to be picky with all of the other excellent improvements) maybe changing the words Brentford FC to GP Grapevine.

yes that is a bug bear but it should be fast after the second page onwards as the gifs have been loaded into your cache on your computer, the advantage is that all the navigation is at the top bar..
