I didn't get people losing their shit last time and it tickles me to read the comments this time around. I look forward to the fashion parade where people fall out of their prams over a bit of naff sports wear that they shouldn't be seen dead wearing.

I think Everton even changed their new badge after complaints by fans.

Ironically, Everton fans' biggest moan was the removal of the motto.

It's a slight improvement but such a small chance it wasn't really worth bothering.

And it still doesn't say "Aston Villa" on it.

It's all part of a 'comprehensive visual identity rebrand project' apparantly.

I'd love to see the Gantt chart for this one:
1st April - Assess old badge
2nd April - Remove the word 'Prepared'
3rd April - Issue invoice to AVFC for £80,000

Other than making the lion look as if he's just seen Pat Butcher naked, I can't see what they've changed.

Sack the badge!

I read that as 'Sack the badger!'

By simply removing Prepared and keeping the badge largely the same, it just looks like the club is disassociating itself from its motto, and opens it up to further ridicule. They really are fucking stupid, aren't they? Oh well, in the scheme of things, it's a speck of a fuck up compared to the festering shitpiles that have become their trademark.

I've seen Pat Butcher naked. Pam St Clement was in one of those Play for Today type things and stripped off.

The badge that looked like a toddler had designed it, it now looks like an infant has designed it.

You can't un-see those kind of things can you?

Nope. I remember watching it and thinking "that's Pat Butcher" and then it got to where she was going to take her clothes off and thinking "they won't be showing anything". They did.
