Silver logo badge

This one is a pretty classy pin which is unique because of its lack of colouring.

It was bought from the club shop as part of a set with a key-ring of the same design.

Basic old logo badges

More of a summary post really but this is all my badges with the basic 'railway wheel' logo together in one group. As you can see there are a variety of sizes, colours and positioning of the ball and letters.

CAFC badge

Another badge from the collection of Andy Scoffin. This CAFC badge was presumably made for Crewe (and not for Charlton!)

Crewe v Hartlepool Match Badge

This one has just appeared on ebay and is another of those plastic insert badges. Made for Crewe's home match against Hartlepool in April 2009. A different style to those cheap looking insert badges previouly mentioned in the blog. Not one I'm going to be adding to my collection but an interesting addition to the site anyway!

Promotion Badge 1997


This badge was made to commemorate CAFCs first ever fromotion into the second tier of English football when we won the play-off final in 1997 at the old Wembley. Its made in a similar style to the badge made when promotion was achieved again in 2003 (although with the old logo). Thanks again to The Railwayman Andy Scoffin for the picture.

Green and Blue logo badges

Here are a couple of rare badges that I don't yet have in my collection. A variation on the regular round pin you will find elsewhere in red and white, these are in blue and green and must have been made because of Crewe having the blue and green away shirt in the 1995/96 season.

Thanks to Andy Scoffin for the picture and for the other badge pictures he sent me from his large CAFC badge collection that I'll be putting up soon.

Crewe v Leeds Badge - March 21st 2009


Hot off the press..... I just bought the match badge for this weekends upcoming match against Leeds. I got it from http://www.badges.esmartdesign.com/08-09.html They do badges for all Leeds games and they made similar badges for our game at Elland Road earlier this season and for the 2 games last season. They are really nice badges too.
