AntrimBlack Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I hate that 'this is', 'we are' bollocks. It was silly corporate graphic design nonsense about 8 years ago, now it's just dated and silly. Pretentious is the word. Having said that the new one looks nice. On reflection, you are probably right. Could be worse - could be AVFC. And I love those crests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Avenue Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 If we beat spurs I will post nice stuff about Paul lambert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Slick. It's a bit better than this: Looks great - persaonally I don't like 'this is' - as it just seems copy liverpool - whom we have no need to copy. A big picture of Frank Carrodus would have been more appropiate IMO. A big picture of the old trinity road stand would be nice, rather than the plastic monstrous carbuncle the said tunnel is now in.

WE ARE Just so you know, the above pictures are of the old tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On reflection, you are probably right. Could be worse - could be AVFC. And I love those crests. Actually, I think I don't like the 'This is' when it refers to something more abstract, like the company name, or Aston Villa itself. That's what I was referring to before. At least with 'This is Villa Park' it really does refer to Villa Park. It is Villa Park. So it's not so pretentious, but the whole look is very nice and classy. I'm impressed actually. And the old one looks bad, so what an improvement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I was just responding to the question relating to `This is Aston Villa' as shown on the photograph, ie `We are Aston Villa'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdomlahor Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I hate the "This is" as well, it's so cheesy. Seems like a copy of Anfield as well, but whatever. The tunnel looks nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) I hope Lambert can get some proper backing next summer so we can move forward and win trophies. Edited October 19, 2013 by dodgyknees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 He should have part/all funding from the sale of Benteke for a start but the difficulty will be attracting quality if there is still a wage cap in place. I personally feel that we'll still buy potential but maybe another step up on the ladder as we've already seen with Okore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally feel that we'll still buy potential but maybe another step up on the ladder as we've already seen with Okore. My worry is that he won't get all, maybe half. And that'll be to bring in a striker, midfielder and defender. I'd have to give Lerner credit if he backed Lambert with the full amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes mate that is the main concern especially with my own theory that he's preparing the club for a sale but lets hope when Benteke is sold you'll be praising the chairman as he should at the very least be reinvesting all revenue from the sale of Benteke back into the team again.
