3rdpillar Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Why do we have to have a druggies / hooligan dog for a mascot. What would be wrong with a Crown Sheepdog? Yeah Dulux ......

Steve Moss Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 "Rover the dog" - is that the best they can come up with?!? Is it the brain child of a 10 year old or something? I actually think it was. By memory wasn't it a child that designed Rover the Dog? And I think it a brilliant effort. Especially liked the right ear.
Seggie Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 It could have been worse could have looked better though. I wonder if our home shirt will be similar to what he's wearing with the red bands on the sleeves Wouldn't be suprised if you look at all the pictures they seem to have made every effort to cover the front of that shirt up for that press conference
bob fleming Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 I actually think it was. By memory wasn't it a child that designed Rover the Dog? *sigh* Yes it was, Callum did it an every credit to him. It says on the link. A good effort it was too.
Ste B Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Vinjay hates it, thinks its too Parochial and doesnt appeal to the Asian Market. Its growing on me.
Seggie Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Vinjay hates it, thinks its too Parochial and doesnt appeal to the Asian Market. Its growing on me. Yes Im sure the small child that designed it had "The Asian Market" in mind. To adults the mascot shouldn't mean anything, it should be how it appears to kids, although saying that I recall asian kids always being scared of dogs at school.
Iceman Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 agree Ste, looking at the pics on Facebook Rover looks mean. I didn't like it at 1st, but doesn't seem to bad now. Woof!
bob fleming Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Vinjay hates it, thinks its too Parochial and doesnt appeal to the Asian Market. I suppose that's Callum's fault that. He's only 10. Typical Vinjay, he should give the lad a break.
Iceman Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Send Vinjay my way, ill have a word with him. He just needs a good talking to lol
modes98 Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Yes Im sure the small child that designed it had "The Asian Market" in mind. Well he should, child labour isn't what it used to be
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Vinjay hates it, thinks its too Parochial and doesnt appeal to the Asian Market. ....It's not a bad effort.
Alex Rover Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Vinjay hates it, thinks its too Parochial and doesnt appeal to the Asian Market. Its growing on me. British Bulldog anyone? Not sure I care much about it though.
Hughesy Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Why do we have to have a druggies / hooligan dog for a mascot. What would be wrong with a Crown Sheepdog? Yeah Dulux ...... WTF?! A hooligan/ druggie dog?? Anyone notice the red trim on the sleeves of the home kit.... looks like its the new home kit with a small adjustment on the arms.
Backroom Tom Posted June 1, 2011 Backroom Posted June 1, 2011 I noticed that before and said the same but the original drawing also has the red sleeves so I'm not sure.
brian_gallagher85 Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 It just looks like a standardised Rovers shirt to be honest, I don't even see an Umbro badge on it. Also I think the dog looks a bit retarded!
yankrover Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 If binjay hates it then I flicken love it. Vinjay hates dogs because they're mentally retarded and is mad because he doesn't think dogs should be glorified. I almost miss him posting here.
Backroom Tom Posted June 2, 2011 Backroom Posted June 2, 2011 The guy sometimes has decent points but they are scattered in between so much bile that they are hard to spot.
Iceman Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 to be fair, Rover looks like a more fun mascot aimed at the kids. again, should this really bother grown men and women, as to how or what it looks like.
Rover Down Under Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Vinjay hates it, thinks its too Parochial and doesnt appeal to the Asian Market. Its growing on me. Problem solved:
