est1874 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I am starting to think more and more that we are reversing plans to change the badge and will in fact reinstate the Lerner badge from next year on. Perhaps not for the long long term, but short to medium term. Just a hunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then makes it even more strange that we announce the deal but nothing about the badge. Another Heck masterclass. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alakagom Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Imagine spending millions on all the marketing agencies all the fan participation just to end with with tiny derivative of the Lerner badge... the round badge had to go it was too similar to Chelsea unfortunately, but this is uninspiring.

trom_borg Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 (edited) So Heck kept us all in suspense over the new badge release for what reason exactly? To hope CL would make us all forget our next badge will have a wordart style drop shadow on it? The detailed lion on the second leak made the badge look ok. This version is an embarrassment tbh, I just can't believe how amateur it looks Edited April 22 by trom_borg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted April 22 VT Supporter Share Posted April 22 20 hours ago, Davkaus said: All this talk of improving our badge and branding and we send Martinez out wearing a shirt that has the lion upside down... How does that happen, and how does it make it not just onto any replica shirt, but one we're sending a player out to wear in the Premier League. **** hell, Castore. I spotted this during the game and thought I was going mad I can't comprehend how the badge can be right wayup and just the lion be upside down. How the **** does that happen?

Villa_Vids Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 The badge is fine. Any negativity towards it will die down. It has Aston Villa/1874 - it is a major improvement on Lerner's one. It stands out more than the round one. Also has a greater potential to be stand alone on a shirt. The bigger issue is VP Re-development - that is key to future success. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the power of branding, we can't be associated with Chelsea that's why it has to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is so far and above an improvement on both the Lerner badge and the "new" badge, that the idea it "has to go" is nonsense. We're throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

I'm not a negative person. in fact I'm an overwhelmingly optimistic poster when it comes to villa. The new badge is completely shit. it's far worse than the Lerner badge and the round badge. And the vast, VAST majority of fans appear to share this view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's really an issue then tweak it and make it better.
