Not sure about the '83 crest, but the now-defunct Navyblue Design Group designed out current logo. It was designed by Alan Ainsley now of Snook.

That 97-99 badge is the most memorable for me... purely because I had it on my duvet and pillow set and wallpaper as a kid!There are some missing from this list.

From a design perspective, I love our current one. Emotionally, it's the one on our '78 Admiral kit (which just happens to be quite similar), since that was my first.

My favourite of recent years actually has to be the 2013-14 kit, only one since 2002 that didn't have any red on it:From a design perspective, I love our current one. Emotionally, it's the one on our '78 Admiral kit (which just happens to be quite similar), since that was my first.
Shame it was such a rancid season!
Got a lot of nostalgia for that 83-95 logo, really like it. Current one is still probably the nicest though.There are some missing from this list (ETA a couple of additional images from Historical Football Kits, which appear to contradict other sources):

Bought that one not too long ago, loved that admiral kitFrom a design perspective, I love our current one. Emotionally, it's the one on our '78 Admiral kit (which just happens to be quite similar), since that was my first.
The current design has not dated at all, it still looks fresh and dynamic, but still retains our history and traditions. Sometimes it's ok to leave things alone.
Personally I cah stand the way the writing curves around the ball. Feels like something a child would do.
Could have just been straight, or even THFC, other than that I like it.
Especially the use of the old style ball.

I have a story about that Crest...
In 1995 I wrote to PONY and suggested a few ideas for future kits... (I was probably too old to ever enter into the world of designing, plus I couldn't draw for shit... but knew what I had in mind, so thought I'd have a go and send them a letter...)
Anyway, 2 of the various things I suggested, was an away/3rd kit that gave a nod to one of our earliest Chocolate & Gold kits... they didn't go with that one...
But another suggestion was the subtle change of badge on all the kits to incorporate the shape and design of the Club shield, that (at the time) I remember used to be 'stuck' to the front of the East & West Stand rooves!
I thought no more about it... then, Lo and behold... a season and a half later; BINGO!
I dunno how much my suggestion influenced their final decision, but I like to think I played my little part in our mid-late 90s Badge/Shield.... if only for a season or two... 'cos the football we played in it was atrocious at times! Mind you... we won the League Cup with THAT Shield on our chest!
I still have a copy of the original typed letter ...I do believe I cut out and sent them a picture of the shield I was thinking of, from an old football magazine! (Mainly 'cos I couldn't draw it... imagine not just being able to 'Google image' it?)
True story that!
Spot on Mrs P. I hasn't dated at all, I was actually surprised to see we had had it for so long to be honest. It is clean, simple, classy.
LOGO, FUCKING LOGO?
IT'A FUCKING BADGE YOU PLANK!

I stand corrected (said the man with the orthopaedic shoes). Cup only kit wasn't it?
