markavfc40 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I'm 48 and in my lifetime we've had five club crests and four of them I've not been happy with. The only one I've liked was the round one we had between 73 and 92. I quite like both of these, and they are both a big upgrade on what we currently have, but I think I'll be voting for option 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s got a good Netherlands badge vibe to it. Looks way better on the shirt than that unseemly circle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfTimePost Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Option 1. Please. I'm begging you all. Not the Citygroup badge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post imavillan Posted November 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2022 my guess is that anyone aged over 50 is voting option 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Don't love either. The shield of the two. Surprised at the % of fans who wanted to keep the star. Time for it to go. Imagine how shit it'll look with two stars. Hopefully, we see it of course, but it'll look even naffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Option one looks class on the shirt. Might be a slow burner. Suspect option 2 will win by landslide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted November 4, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 4, 2022 My brain automatically thinks it's a mirror image of the badge cos the lion is facing the other way. It's kinda odd. Though, I prefer the circular design. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, fans overwhelmingly said " Needs to be more Claret and Blue " apparently. For me, it's just made us look more like Burnley. This is it for me… they look so plain and bland now and don’t stand out… a real lack of vibrancy… the gold/yellow lion differentiated us… just needed a better/darker background for it. Too much or solely C&B (esp when dark - no purple shades!!!) and we just resemble the likes of West Ham and Burnley whereas we always stood out and looked better with the addition of yellow/gold and more appealing shades of claret and blue. These are quite uninspiring really.. and why did they have to turn the lion around? Even just this Iooks better than those two designs: So many fan designs looked better and stood out more than these… Oh well… They’re not terrible or a disaster… just not anything special or, again, vibrant… Edited November 4, 2022 by Jas10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django_Zooms Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Round. Even my wife agrees and she is really fed up with hearing about Aston Villa from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen_Evans Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I might be in the minority, but I think option 1 does badly from a distance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burchy Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Option 1 - meh Option 2 - double meh Missed opportunity to make a statement for me, the lions pants as well, needed to be a modern heraltic (is that the right word) design. Out of the 2 though I’m option 1 as it’s a bit different and unique, like us as a club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5-1 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Voted 1 but not in love with either. The lion flipping makes everything look wrong IMO (and my tattoo of the lion on my leg now being wrong too as i went with that over the crest as a safe option haha) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is alot of fans already have their minds made up based on nostalgia. This makes us stand out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s got a good Netherlands badge vibe to it. that's what it reminds me of! i was wracking my brain trying to place it. it looks great imo. it was very jarring at first but it's grown on me already. shame it'll lose.

PieFacE Posted November 4, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 4, 2022 Having just watched the video on this, I quite like option 1 too. Seeing how it would look on the shirts was good and I think both are excellent. A massive step up on the current badge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Yellow/gold lion was required imo… too dull otherwise… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
