I prefer the detailed lion but honestly don't mind the "new" badge as shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 19 VT Supporter Share Posted May 19 1 minute ago, Stephen_Evans said: Agreed, there is no comparison between the latest badge and the Lerner one, which didn’t work at all. The original Lerner one was laughable. But the most recent version of it was far better than this new badge 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They consulted with the fans and the vast majority didn’t take part in the surveys… fans should have very little input into any of this and the problem is they. have. I mean we should’ve had a fan designed badge competition and voted from there but we didn’t and no amount of angst and ire can change anything at this stage so I’m just gunna go with it and embrace champions league footy next season and myself not get caught up path how the badge looks … 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 (edited) What a own goal gaff that is. "Prepared" after being spanked 5-0 today If anything we were unprepared today ! the timing is bizarre Edited May 19 by Demitri_C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'll go down better than the round badge but doesn't mean anything of course. Interesting though isn’t it. Neutrals all hated our round badge and generally liked the Lerner 2.0 one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two things i didnt like about the round one. The lion facing wrong way and the colour of the lion. But the facing of the lion i hated more than absolutely anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because we’ve had the Lerner one for so long now. They associate that badge with Villa so something new isn’t pleasant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well just in terms of brand awareness that justifies having something kind of similar to what we are associated with. After all this I wish we’d just stuck with Lerner 2.0 but I’m kind of over the badge debate for the rest of my life now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvonVillain Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 It just doesn't seem plausible that a professional design agency elected to go for a drop shadow. I wonder if we can make our own crest patch to sew over this?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Townsend Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 I am a big fan of the 'Prepared' motto. it was part of the adidas stuff last week, and today's tweet. But it isn't on the new crest so how are they reintroducing it exactly? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
