He had the tattoo done after his team won the Premiership and says the 20cm design took four hours.
A rugby fan who got a "painful" £300 tattoo of his team's badge will do it all over again after the club said it was introducing a new design.
Simon Stacey from Desborough, Northamptonshire, had the tattoo done on his calf when Northampton Saints won the Premiership in 2014. The club announced it is designing a new crest because the existing one does not reflect the history of the club.against Saracens with a final score of 24-20, Simon Stacey decided to celebrate it with a permanent design on his body.
He decided to put his very first tattoo on his calf, which he said was "quite a painful place", and it took about four hours and cost him about £300.as it "is too intricate to work digitally, lacks the club colours and some supporters could not recall the design when asked", according to the chief executive, Mark Darbon.
He has many other tattoos, including the Saints "stick man" logo, but he said there would be space left beside the existing crest for an image of the new one.
