    Something like this? Can't say I like it...

    That's not true at all. I can only speak for myself and friends / family but we all like it because we think it looks great. Nothing to do with the Luke brand at all. If anything, the Luke logo is the worst part of the kit. It's my favourite villa kit since the 90s. People just have different tastes, and a big percentage of people genuinely like the shirt. Not sure why some people question this. You don't like it, great. This season's kit, in my opinion, is one of the worst I've seen since following the Villa (1989/90 season). It's down there with the hummel shirts of the 2000s. Doesn't mean I can't accept that other people may like it.

    I would be happy with that!

    Because some people, myself included, feel that a blue background for the crest works best against the claret home shirt to help it stand out. A gold or yellow lion doesn't work against the blue background though so the best option is claret.

    I actually have no issues with the design / layout of the revamped Lerner badge other than the colour scheme with the light yellow on light blue so I would personally be happy with changes as simple as the below:

    It is centred though. As you have proven above, Aston is a longer word that Villa so therefore the space that everyone seems to feel should be in the middle, is not. I hate this Heck badge but the text is, at least, centred. Even with this season's round badge, the space is not in the centre of the circle.
  7. Billson
    Nonsense. People don't just hate it for the sake of it at all. As has been said a million times, the main issue is the colour scheme and they still haven't fixed that with this new version. The lion does not stand out at all, a crappy drop-shadow doesn't change that.

    Absolutely rubbish that fans who attended the previous conference league games don't get access to buying tickets until such a late stage! Only one ticket left from what I can see, and you can't buy that without also buying a junior ticket too (even though there are no seats left for said junior).

    It wasn't a good one that's for sure! And yet, still nicer than the current one!

    3.779km as the crow flies, so pretty close! Still takes forever to get home when I make it to a game!

    I have always thought it is brilliant... The reason I fell in love with music and picked up the guitar.

    John Squire's lyrics on Just Another Rainbow are a real let down, particularly the bit where Liam is reciting the colours of the rainbow, that is terrible. I can hardly believe John wrote them, I was sure that was going to be Liam's handy work when I first heard them. The chorus of Mars to Liverpool sounds like it's right at the top of Liam's range so I can't see him pulling that off live unless they change the key. However, as expected, I'm loving John's guitar work on both songs. Particularly the solo on the first song. I don't care, I love it. I just love the way the man plays the guitar and could listen to it all day.

    It was the minutes from the FAB meeting on the 20th December that said 2 weeks. "Having now completed the detailed consultation process, the Club will look to announce the new crest in approximately two weeks from the meeting, and the crest will then be rolled out across the summer."

    Was that when they re-recorded one of Ashcroft's solo songs? Or did they do something else together? As for the LG/JS collobaration, it's something I've been hoping for for years. Considering how good he is and how long he's been around, John Squire has not recorded enough music, I get excited about everything he's involved with! Even when the new Stone Roses songs were a let down I still loved his playing on them. I didn't like the one previous, but I quite liked several songs from Noel's last album. Some of those songs we're calling for Liam's voice though. I find Noel's voice get's boring when he's singing the whole album. Liam's last album wasn't great but I enjoyed the first two for the most part.

    Don't know if this is the right topic for this but is anyone else exited by the recently announced Liam Gallagher / John Squire collaboration? I can't wait to hear Squire playing again!! https://youtube.com/shorts/dK45YP_8MNw?si=0M7-xIyfrKwpIXm9 (Sorry, I don't know how to embed links properly.)

    I think it's a mixed bag. For me, 'Go Let it Out', 'Gas Panic' and 'Roll It Over' are among some of their best songs, but then 'Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is', 'Little James' & 'I Can See a Liar' are amongst their worst! 'In The Bushes' is decent. The rest of the songs on that album don't really do much to make me love or hate them, they are pretty bland. As mentioned by others, the best song of that era though was 'Lets All Make Believe', that's a beautiful song! How it never made the album, I'll never know.

    To be fair, so is ours! Tielemans has been fantastic recently though.

    "Proud of our past, excited about the opportunities that lie ahead" Sounds familiar...

    Literally just thought the same thing before reading your comment, would be good for the symmetry.
  20. Billson
    I think that's horrific but just my opinion. Massive sponsor certainly doesn't help.

    Please not Under Armour again, I don't think they've ever made a decent football kit. Every single design they made for Spurs was crap and for the two years they made ours they got the colours completely wrong. Would love to see a Hummel remake of the 1988 kits but I guess that's not going to happen if they can't afford us now. Knowing Villa, we'll be back with Macron for next year

    Pretty sure I saw at least one of the pre-season games they were wearing the pre-match shirt instead of the actual kit.

    Is there a way to pin this post to the top of every page in the thread?

    Loving Ahsoka so far! Last 2 episodes have been brilliant! Dave Filoni is the man!

    Thank you! Good to know!
