City have played two games less than us. They're quite good at winning games too, so I don't think this is a 'bird in the hand' situation. We're not going to win the title, but they might.

Milner before we sold him must have been close. I think he had 9 goals and 13 assists as I remember it. Or the other way round.

The yellow lion and claret background is the best, but for me the majority blue and claret ones don't really work. To those I prefer the one you wrote Whhhhhhhy over—that one is absolutely fine. It's a marked improvement from the drop shadow version and looks good. (but yeah, the claret background and yellow lion is best)

I think he knew that and was saying that it's clearly not real. (not that it was a photo) Maybe not, but it's clearly not the kind of image you'd use to sell that design. All the decisions are wrong (angles etc, and the fact it's messy)

I kind of feel people jump on this stuff too much. Lots of stuff happens behind closed doors all the time. I get it there are rules about fan consultation, but whatevs. I don't think the detailing on our potential badge is any worse than any other badge.

In fairness, the last one is really nice. And weirdly, having said what I've just said, if the text is going to be at the bottom, I prefer the two versions of the crest with the 1874. Maybe I'm wrong about that. I think I like 2 and 3, and then 5. Maybe 2 and 3 are good! But the first one really is very shit looking now.

Is he kicking up a fuss? Isn't he just saying it's funny that the club seem to have gone from the drop shadow version to basically the version he did (or the other guy). As in, it's funny that they might literally have copied him/them. If the club are reading this CUT OUT THE 1874! It's such a pointless, random addition and it ruins the spacing. Arguably mack off the star too.

If the blue and yellow is to be kept it looks fine. They should mack off the 1874 though. It's so pointless and definitely unbalances things!

End of? And if Heck wanted to change it because it looks like Chelsea's badge... I believe that was mentioned somewhere. Because it really does look like Chelsea's badge. You can ignore that if you want. If I was a marketing guy (I kind of now am) then I'd have issues with a rebranding that made a badge look so close to a (more recently) much more successful rival. It's an insane decision.

As been said in the argument, Chelsea are a huge team with massive recent success. It's a huge issue and very probably the biggest issue with them not continuing with the round badge. To my mind anyone dismissing that argument is missing the exact point why we likely won't continue with it. If we ignore the problem it doesn't go away. West Ham's shield features two crossed hammers—we're nowhere near. Middlesbrough's design obviously has similarities, but details like that ribbon, placing of text, and the actual shape of the shield make a big difference. The key thing is though is that we're not competing with Middlesbrough for anything.

The round badge has grown on me to a degree—I prefer it to the blue and yellow of the Lerner era, but we just can't keep it when it looks like Chelsea's. It's silly.

Evidence: Morgan Sanson was the last one to be labelled such and he's pretty white.

My brain just said, 'It was Stoke!' (we all have so much useless Villa knowledge) and I checked and I think this is the game:

I'm sure he hit the bar against someone.

I think he's being a bit harsh on himself tbh.

Interesting reading all these impressive marathon times. This is no sales plug, but I'm working for an app at the moment called Run Kaizen. It seems good to me as it provides an accurate race prediction, based on an algorithm and some science that is way above my head, allows you to make a race target time then breaks down the training load you need each week in order to make that target for your specific race. (There's a free trial fyi) I do the blog at the moment among other things so this spiel rolls off the proverbial tongue a little. I'm considering the Madrid marathon in April having only started running properly again in November and I find the training load presented in a simplified form interesting. (Just did a 14k yesterday and average about 25k a week). I'm sharing more than anything. I get no money for their subscribers, but I also find it interesting what more advanced runners think about the app.

Where we all nailing our colours? Then all that's left is arguing about them for the next two years.
