AvfcRigo82 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Not a chance this would work in this day and age, not with so many 'delicate minded' people in today's society anyway. As @ferguson1 says, it's more of a resemblance of Guy Fawkes than anything Villa. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpTheVilla26 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 It's hideous. I don't want gimmicky, cartoon efforts anywhere near our branding, which is a shambles at the moment as it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @ferguson1 says, it's more of a resemblance of Guy Fawkes than anything Villa. I was just thinking... the next line would be that it " alienates" a cross section of the fan base. So in essence we'd have to somehow make him White, Black, Asian, Arab... straight, gay, trans, binary, non binary, short, tall, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Muslim, Jehovah's witness, Atheist, Agnostic, Vegan, Carnivore, slim, medium and fat... At the same time... and I'm sure we'd still be pissing someone off Edited October 8, 2023 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s monstrously embarrassing, how does this relate to the club (and please don’t cite ‘villan’)? Its unnecessarily adding a layer of narrative that doesn’t exist. Why would we want a guy fawkes-a-like representing the club? Heck would absolutely hate this. Yeah about that... 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Use it on kids stuff, plush toys, mugs, chips bags, food courts beer brand, whatever. Add an additional mascot along with Bella. As @Zatman says it's so bad it's good. Agree that we should not bring Darkie back thou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think the idea being floated is to " replace " the lion with him. Just an idea to use it somehow at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
