  1. Like in the Shef Utd game where there was VAR?
  2. Was literally just thinking this. We are about to kick off again and the penalty wouldn’t have been taken yet.

    You can somewhat get away with it if you’re a generational talent like Balotelli (albeit he threw it all away). Duran is bang average.
  4. O’Nein has Martinez vibes. Proper arsehole but if he’s in your team I bet you’d love it. Just generally infuriating but in quite a tactical way.
  5. Well this is it. Maybe I’m just looking back with tinted specs but I swear game changing refereeing mistakes never happened that often. VAR just seems to create more by massively dissecting everything. The number of mistakes corrected is not worth the wholesale impact it has had on the enjoyment of the game, and this game proves that.
  6. They usually do tbf. Not many goals against us have gone to VAR
  7. Ooo no VAR!!! Thank Christ. If a goal goes in we can actually celebrate and no pissing around with offsides being massively delayed.

    If this is all true then def won’t miss him. Personally I see absolutely nothing to be excited about in him and if this is all true then his personality for this squad and where we want to be is way, way off anyway.
  9. I can’t see anything but a loss. We seem to hate the FA Cup, have half our squad out and are playing on the back of 3 poor performances against a side who will be well up for it.
  10. I think Wolves is no.1. Iconic, immediately recognisable, clean, minimalist, works in every format, unique shape but without being insane. I think it’s perfect tbh. It’s what I wanted ours to be - a lion but just quite simply and recognisably the Villa lion
  11. Christ the round badge really is so much better isn’t it. I don’t love it but I can totally just live with it for the rest of time
  12. Just to compound your misery: https://trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmcase/page/Results/1/UK00003993939
  13. I think it was the social media reaction. There was a petition as well I think to the local MP (as if that matters) but when you have every other club and huge businesses ripping you on social media you need to backtrack. Ours obviously won’t illicit the same response as ours is just shite rather than hilarious and astonishingly misguided.
  14. Heck’s yellow blue and black floating hover lions, you'll never sing that
  15. Maybe we could do this and have the first animated slowly rotating badge??
  16. NSWE don’t get a free pass on this. Heck is their man. They’ve achieved great things on the football side of things. On the non football side they’re **** everything up. Unless the thing you love the most about Villa is revenue.
  17. Someone did point out the other day that the demographic of this website and also the fans groups is mostly middle aged-ish men. I’d be intrigued to know what the 25 and under Villa demographic thinks.
  18. I don’t agree: unless the viewer is colour blind, it is instantly recognisable. Speaking of miniaturised, that’s when the new badge looks its worst. It looks like it’s had its head chopped off:
  19. The shadow. The **** shadow. I think it might be the worst badge in the league
  20. Christ it’s worse every time I look at it. I don’t get how some people just don’t care - it’s the most important aspect of our brand and identity.
  21. Total hollocks. This “reserving” bollocks is also bollocks. The Aston Villa trademark has been trade marked forever. The lion is already trademarked. You couldn’t use any of the elements without being accused or passing off anyway. This is our badge.
