Some people may have voted for that badge because it doesn't have the latin..

I am glad I'm not the only one who thinks we need a motto of some kind rather than "founded 2011" - "founded 2011" makes us look like a shop. I keep expecting to see "High Class Butchers", or "Matthews and Son" instead of AFC Rushden and Diamonds!

I voted for three, but in fact prefer none of them in particular (In fact, I quite like that one which came out early on, with a round Diamonds badge which looked as if it was being borne up on the wings of a phoenix) except to say that three with a Latin motto would be very good indeed.

I'm voting for design 3 and like others have said would prefer it to have a Latin phrase. Could somebody with the right connections make my vote for me as the site seems to have NO recollection of my username or email address.

I don't.

I think putting Latin on the crest of a club founded in 2011 is ridiculous, not to mention pretentious.
