Or at least his chairman Steve Hollis did early in 2016 before the takeover. Ahh I stand corrected. I remember it changing for the first season in the championship but I've checked and you are correct that those changes had already been decided in April 2016.

ThunderPower_14 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 I've been fairly supportive of a wait and see attitude towards Heck's rebrand given his previous work, but if we get another slightly modified Lerner badge I'll be furious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Townsend Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 I could live with that badge even though I am annoyed we are losing the round badge I think the u turn on the new stand is a far bigger problem. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that we will have paid a fortune to ‘professionals’ to produce that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 If fans asked for a round badge first survey. Does it mean they changed their mind in the second survey? I prefer the round badge myself but have stopped caring. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be bad enough by itself but made 1000x worse by the fact that it was *his* choice to bin the previous badge. Let’s hope this is just someone on the wind up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted December 28, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2023 (edited) 22 minutes ago, Risso said: So, despite the first survey giving the results that a round badge was most popular, is Heck now trying to state that in his survery, everybody's plumped for the original shield instead? If I've got that right, I'm not sure I believe him. The second survey was worded differently, it was kinda presented as something like “We think Aston Villa’s badge is best represented by a shield design…to what extent do you agree?” Something like that. A much more leading question. I think my response would have been powered by a “Yeah, ok, fine whatever” mindset. So I think the survey probably does show that people voted for it, but I think it was both leading and a kinda apathy had set in. I don’t think the majority of supporters do want a shield shape, I think a lot are disinterested now. IF what we’re seeing is accurate, I honestly think we’ll be having this same damn conversation in three years time.

avfc1982am Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 It just seems to me that everything outside of the football side of things is a bit of a shitshow. Next season it will be a choice selection of different badges, unfortunately it'll cost you an extra £50 on top of the new shirt price of £150 to have an iron on version. "Want the embroidered one sir, that'll be £65, or you can go for the sweat proof pro style and get the rubber one for just £75". I jest a little but I hate to think what next summer will bring when it comes to ST renews etc. I can see a very disgruntled fanbase at this rate getting ripped the f*** off.
