Wow! The target has been hit in just a few hours which is really very impressive considering it only went up late last night.

Obviously this isn't anything to do with me personally, and I actually agree with most of the comments on here about mentioning Arsenal, however I also understand that its a last minute thing, the message they are trying to deliver (whether that is right or wrong is a debate for another time) and that due to timescales the design isn't something they have time to dwell over at such short notice (this is explained on the page).

edit:
For those that have concerns over fireproofing:
Quote
UPDATE: We have made the funding!

Even better news is the Chinese company have managed to source the required fireproof material, which is more expensive and takes up the price to £2200. But we have this covered anyway.

I will speak to them one more time to make sure everything is in order and message all investors. GREAT EFFORT EVERYONE! UTV

It's embarrassing name checking Arsenal. Hope it doesn't happen.

So it will get here from China before the 29 May?

I think it would be cutting it fine to get it here a month later given my experience of getting stuff out of China.

Dont like the design either.

Great band, great album... obviously a great football club - but not a good flag design. Does anyone like it?

Great initiative, but when something's this short notice it's better to keep it simple. Aside from mentioning Arsenal, they haven't even got the grammar right.

At the very least it should have just read 'the VILLA' rather than 'the Aston Villa'. Terrible really.

Am I missing the point?

Why not have the one that gets used for every home game - design seems ok to me and I assume the club would allow it to be used - maybe with some of deposit.

That's terrible. About as shit a design as you could come up with. Bravo. Can only ever be used against Arsenal as well.

Good investment.
