Pretty much, yes. Hell has no fury like a robin scorned!

I’m voting in favour of the resolution.
It was a criminal act to adopt the Dragon in the first place.

Yes, let's spend time and money that we don't have on rebranding for no other reason than nostalgia.

The fact that grown men and women even care about a mascot is beyond me. The kids love Wrex and the Junior Dragons goes a long way to securing a fan base for the future.

For the sake of the kids, leave Wrex be.

Won't somebody think of the children!!

I will vote NO! as the presenter of the DRAGONheart Radio Show, I am a bit biased

I really don't think ROBINheart Radio Show has the same ring to it!!

so it's a nope from me!!

Rockin Robin was great, but the kids of today will be used to Wrex and not really know who Rockin Robin is - plus it will involve additional costs and time to rebrand the junior Dragons etc., so it's a no from me.

We are the Robins ffs not a generic Welsh Dragon!

Rob · 4th June 2018, 09.59:27

The motion is about the mascot, not a rebrand?

Generic mascots are quite cheap it seems https://www.mascotcostumes.co.uk/Red...Mascot-Costume

"as you would expect, this costume is very popular with our customers in Wales"

( Also, https://www.mascotcostumes.co.uk/Walrus-Mascot-Costume just for the phrase 'luxury Walrus mascot' !)

me too.

We are the Robins, and I think the change in mascot should logically lead to an official change back to our real nickname.
