Where did the Rowdies play their indoor soccer games?

Answer: at the old Bayfront Center in St. Petersburg.

two Rowdies articles???

[edit]

I really don't think that there should be a separate Rowdies article for the prospective new franchise, at least not until they actually step on the pitch. It's too confusing and a bit premature, imo.

Also, it seems that the new article is copied and pasted in part from the Seattle Sounders article, and for some reason does not seem to have its own talk page. Zeng8r (talk) 01:29, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

unlisted players

[edit]

I remember the name Alex Pringle from watching the Rowdies as a kid. I remember he either split time between the Rowdies and Crystal Palace in England or that the seasons did not overlap and he switched teams in the off season of the other.Halconen (talk) 22:01, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Uniform color

[edit]

It looks like the colors shown in the info box are different that the colors shown in the logo. For example, the info box makes it look like they had white socks, and the logo suggests their socks were green and yellow. SlowJog (talk) 00:35, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another discrepancy: The logo makes it look like their home colors were predominantly yellow, while the infobox makes it look like white was the main color. SlowJog (talk) 23:40, 10 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's the correct logo and they did indeed usually wear predominantly white kits at home. Actually, I don't think they ever wore a yellow uniform as depicted in the logo. Blame the graphic designers, I guess. Zeng8r (talk) 02:37, 11 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Rowdies' logo artist Scott Ross clears up the yellow uniform issue that the "Ralph Rowdie" character is wearing in an interview at this blog: http://www.kenn.com/the_blog/?p=4609#comments
