    The 150 mark is on the website and was on the centre circle on Saturday - and hence the "seemingly" re the badge! Maybe he's a genius and has registered those terrible badges with copyright, to throw us off the sent for a big, coherent, on brand release, ....one day, soon....
  2. Ingers
    probably, he's ruining the rest of the aesthetics of the club, why not the shirt too....
  3. Ingers
    no - its terrible, and will ruin our new kit and merchandise....

    I'm a die hard for claret body, blue sleeves - but didn't mind the luke one, at least is had a bit of blue on it, and blue socks - but I probably got caught up in the success of the team and local boy making the kit....

    I can't believe Captain 'onbrand' has seemingly sanctioned two new logos (club badge and 150 'mark') with different fonts, different clarets, different blues, with yellow on one, gold on the other - doesn't the term 'brand' infer consistency across output?

    Claret lion (new one!) on blue back ground, gold trim, or Gold Lion on Claret with significant blue.... otherwise we don't represent claret n blue, look like West Ham's Badge, or even Bradford's. If we are about building a 'brand' we need to brand ourselves claret and blue - we are the original ( and currently best) Claret and (light) Blue team in Europe/World? - if we are to honour our rich history and fans, whilst trying to build a new bigger global fan base/customer base - it HAS to say Claret and Blue (with the gold for detail, depth etc. as needed) Yellow or Gold on light blue is a disaster and will need addressing again in a few years. The badge is used so often away from the shirt, in graphics, TV, websites, papers, documents, other merchandise - it has to be predominantly claret and blue, with a rampant lion or its not Aston Villa. @PerryBarrPet - the city of birmingham crest badge was only a bit of fun, and one of many I knocked up - but I didn't really think we should adopt it! (I'd take it over the leaked one, but there are so many other good ones on here)

    cheers!

    Forgive me if this has been covered in the previous 375 pages (I'm a newbie and may have missed it) but are there any options with rail seating / safe standing? Is there any currently at VP? (I live a long way away and have only been a few times in past few seasons - taking any ticket I could!) Any plans? Is it possible to replace large sections and if so, does it increase capacity by say 10 - 15% in that area, or do the rails just take up the space? I'd imagine at least half the Holte ticket holders would be interested, plus bottom of North, the new 'singing section' etc.....

    FOTC....

    A bit late, but as requested from @fightoffyour and @Stephen_Evans Stephen, I don't think the middle one works cutting off the claret border - so just a more plain old school 3rd one....
  12. Ingers
    This one is a little polarising - we already do, but this would 'own the city'.....

    1982 - but in a shield because the powers that be don't want a circle.... and @Jas10 sorry, but no stripes, ever again..... Home: Claret shirt, blue sleeves, white shorts, blue socks.. Away: White with claret n blue trim/shorts/socks different to home so can be mixed and matched, (eg 1981, 82 etc) Third: (if we have to to make $ and satisfy the youngsters who are bored with 'essential' Aston Villa) - anything tasteful, but NEVER blue.....

    There was never a question re the Lion from me - this current one all the way, I was just comparing designs side by side to highlight (my perceived) problems with the old blob - especially when badge is smaller. I will admit to warming to a golden lion whilst doing them, (hence two in my final 5) - but only if there is significant Claret n Blue to ensure the gold is an addition, not a focus (in the last design the lion has been reduced compared to claret component) I would be happy to buy merchandise with any of these designs (even if they weren't mine!) or Tash's AV Diamond - but I'm very unlikely to buy anything with the leaked horror show drop shadow on it......

    @Teale's 'tache yup - that's the one thanks for reposting! That's a fantastic design, best concept I've seen, and I've been trawling the net! If only Mr Heck.... @Jas10 - no not my account, no twitter for me, as I said in my first post or second - some original designs, but many of my ideas were based on or tweaks of others, I'm not claiming they are all my own, some I've tweaked the geometry, or the colours, or like the one you posted, changed the shield shape and stuck with a winning formula (no star though!) I accidentally got very close when using the Heck shape to do the gold lions ones, then compared it to the colour palette I'd choose - so apologies to primetimeperry, I'm not meaning to take credit for your design - but there's only so many ways to do a Villa shield.

    @CarryOnVilla - apologies, I didn't reply yesterday - had to go to bed down here, and 'ran out of replies' - I can only post 5 times a day as I'm a newbie! To answer your question - I'd pitch these design to the Villa, - as I think they fit the bill and represent Villa for shirt, media, merchandising, stadium etc. I'd also pass on the blue AV diamond on claret background with gold lion, from someone on here previously - Teale's Tash I think - that is a fantastic design, unique for villa designs, has heritage with the old frontage and top of old Trinity Rd fascia vibes, fairly unique (I can only think of Monchengladbach with a diamond shape) and just stands out for Villa, looked good on kit mock up and great design - doesn't say our name, but I don't think it needs to. @Teale's 'tache - if that was your design, can you repost it please? - I can't locate it in the 240 pages of this thread. And I hear your point on designers possibly having their hands tied - which may well be the case, Id love to hear the brief they were given! Apologies if I came across too hard, when they are probably restricted to half a job, to tweak the rubbish we already have, to save costs, and potentially evolve one slow mutation at a time, but its so bad!....
