FWIW that trademark received approval today. Exactly what I suspected. The plain lion was used for a reason (albeit the colours are stupid).

The original ( current ) looks an absolute eye ache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Davkaus Posted February 25 Popular Post Share Posted February 25 I presume that they added the football to the front because small heath have the exclusive rights to a pair of bollocks representing a sad shower of a football club. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Does it have to be to be better than that blue smudge we have? No. Oh wow I think the headed ball is pretty iconic for Bournemouth. Big change. This would be like us dropping the Lion rampant. Despite that it's clean and reads well. No idea how protective Bournemouth fans are of their current logo.

Other than knowing their badge was mostly Black/Red I had to Google it to remember what it actually was. This is an improvement imo for them. It's more memorable even in a boring circle. When I think of Bournemouth, Cherries match more my thoughts than the headed ball. But it is very Ajax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted February 25 Moderator Share Posted February 25 Please return to discussing Villa’s crest/badge, rather than what you think of other club crests. Thanks. But if you want to chat cherries or whatever, Other Football is the place for that. Thanks Villans. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Bournemouth going for a circle is one less shield in the league. And one more circle. As convenient as a circle is for media purposes, I feel like going back to a shield is the right idea for us. Although, assuming Heck's reworked design has to go to a fan vote, I don't see it beating the current badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like he's changed our colours to be royal blue and white and replaced our badge with a porcupine - so I'd be surprised if the FA get heavily involved in terms of protecting a club's heritage and identity. If Newcastle are allowed to change their away strip into the Saudi home kit without any opposition from the authorities then I can't see them getting involved in this.

0Lamptey Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I think this on topic, in how this issue is being dealt with by another Club, compared to the handling by Villa. Interesting that the Bournemouth President of Business Operations, Jim Frevola, immediately responded to the news stories about their crest change on Twitter. https://x.com/jimfrevola/status/1761830730361983339?s=20 "Nothing to see here. The trademark logo people are reading about today is all part of securing our logos for future use (think retail ). We wouldn’t consider changing this primary beauty of a badge without significant fan consultation" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Newcastle are allowed to change their away strip into the Saudi home kit without any opposition from the authorities then I can't see them getting involved in this. It's interesting. I'd agree with you - I think there's an argument about evolving the proposed crest from the existing Lerner crest not being a material change at a level that the FA would get involved in, and there's an argument that the survey sent out in October would constitute enough consultation - but there's also an argument that the round badge is the one that the FA currently consider to be our most recent having been heavily involved in the consultation and that the results of October's consultation don't completely align with the proposed crest design. Like you however, I would have been a little surprised that the FA would chose to get involved in this one. They have though, the club were looking to launch this crest a month ago and it seems it's the concerns of the FA that have prevented them doing so - it's all a bit of an unnecessary mess.

CVByrne Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I think I learnt a lot from that Video I posted on previous page. The commercial income Juventus have managed to grow by since their rebrand. The things that need to be taken into account like how the club crest / logo looks on all kinds of merchandise is important. Heck knows how to grow the commercial revenue, especially in US markets which is key for us. I think the careful consideration on the crest is a key cog in getting this club to close the gap on the big 6 financially. The most important thing for us in coming years is cementing ourselves as one of the Elite and not one of the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
