With the clubs cryptic Tweets, would you welcome a more traditional Oxford badge/logo for the club?
It would suite the "Oxford brand" that Tiger kept talking about.

Precisely. In fact I would argue that Morris' OUFC badge is every bit an icon of Oxford as a whole, as any other form of Ox-related symbolism. It is both something that binds the club to Oxford and gives it a unique identity.I have great affection for the old badge. But the Desmond Morris Minoan Ox head has now become pretty iconic. I wouldn't want to change back particularly.
AwfulNot against a new crest but the Minoan Ox head must be the prominent feature of the club's crest.
I do agree that just the Ox head is better rather than with all the extra stuff.Although I don't want rid of the Minoan Ox, I'm still not the biggest fan of our current crest. I'm not too fond of the shield shape, the pin stripes, or the way the font is larger for the 'Oxford' than the 'United'. Personally I'd prefer either the ox head alone as we've had previously, or in a crest but with the ford/water somehow in there too.
