  1. This is a big one but... I've never been a huge fan of the colours of our home kit. Claret and blue as a combo just doesn't look good to me.
  2. And they were spot on. He blew cold in his first season or so and he's been blowing hot ever since
  3. I just thought I'd pop my head into this thread to scream into the void for a second about how we've not officially announced a crest yet. Is it just me that's getting a bit frustrated?
  4. This link always felt like classic media tripe and this kinda proves it. "Villa have reached out and are trying to make a deal happen but the player is desperate to sign for Fiorentina!" Signs for Napoli.
  5. No worries - and I agree with you. I'm far more concerned with how it looks in larger formats than how it might appear when scaled down to the size of Joey Barton's manhood.
  6. I've seen this mentioned a lot so I figured I'd mock it up. Thoughts?
  7. Honestly, I don't care what led to this badge, only that we (may have) got here!
  8. OR maybe Heck saw this lion and said “uh guys, this looks great, why are we not using it when we already own it?”.
  9. I know people liked the monochromatic approach to even the trademarked crest so here's an example of what this one would look like. I think it's pretty smart.
  10. If this is legit, I’m actually happy!
  11. Picking up this thread again for a bit of perspective after yesterday's draw with Everton. To reaffirm something I've mentioned before, on average, 71 points has been enough to secure a top 4 finish every season for the last 14 years. Continuing with our average PPG this season would leave us with a projected total of 77/78 points so there is margin for error here. Repeating results for the corresponding fixtures for last season would see us finish with 70 points. This means that, to finish in the top 4, we'd need to do one point better than our corresponding results for the remaining fixtures below.
  12. I still think I'd prefer it without the star and 1874, mind.
  13. If this is how the badge ends up then I'm happy. It'll be instantly recognisable, the detailing on the lion provides contrast against the light blue background, and it features our full name. Add to this the fact a golden lion on the kit (as seen on socials) could look utterly sensational and we're in a pretty good place. A far cry from where we as a fanbase were last week. Fingers crossed.
  14. If it ends up looking like the badge depicted in the trademark, I still think it's a really poor effort. That said, the detailing on the image floating around socials is, frankly, gorgeous. That type of gold detailing across a kit would be all kinds of beautiful so I'm very intrigued to see how it all comes together. My opinion of the trademarked image hasn't changed but this has, at the very least, made me slightly more hopeful.
  15. If we ever put out a kit like this I'd be absolutely buzzing. So classy.
  16. Yeah, aside from the p*ssin’ Sky Bet Championship badges this is great
  17. I actually quite like this. Feels like it adds far more weight to the badge so your eyes aren’t dragged down to the bottom (insert Kenneth). It also alleviates the contrast issue of yellow on blue. Sadly, it won’t be this either because it’d look awful in smaller formats.
  18. Greatly depends on what tier we’re on, I’m certain. As stated in another post in this thread, the teams you’ve mentioned only receive “standard” treatment. Basic templates, not a lot of money and only sold in national markets. If we’ve landed an “Elite” role it’s a whole different kettle of fish.
  19. I don't hate this but I still think the "AVFC" one was perfect. I understand that a lot of folks want "Aston Villa" on the crest but I truly don't think it matters when some of the biggest clubs on earth don't have their name on the crest (see: Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter Milan, AC Milan and a host of others). There are smaller examples that work fine too, Wolves and Napoli for example. At this point I just want a badge that isn't sh*t. Is that too much to ask?
  20. I cannot put in to words how beautiful this is.
  21. One thing that truly annoys me about Emery's tactics, and reign in general, is that I cannot emulate it on Football Manager. It's the first time in my life I can't do any better than our current manager on a video game and that really grinds my gears.
  22. Perhaps, and this is wishful thinking, they are so confident about us to getting CL football each season for the foreseeable future that they see reducing our current capacity and spending a fortune on updating the North Stand as a waste of money. Why spend vast sums of money on updating the stadium over the next few years if they're thinking it may not be a viable arena for the inevitable success coming our way? We're better off moving to an absolute coliseum in 5-10 years time. A bit of a leap, but I need a way to calm down after the commercial blunders of the last few weeks.
  23. Whinging aside, I’m always a sucker for a monochromatic look.
  24. It’s so uninspiring that I fully expect this to be legitimate. It’s about as safe and underwhelming as one could anticipate.
  25. Really not a fan of this. At first I thought it was an xG table but it's Expected Points which feels a bit whacky.
