Ultimately though... I'm really not bothered, and never will be over a change of badge. It's not like they've put in a hippo hoola-hooping.



I'm so, so sorry.
Ooooooh.
Can we have ...?

They should've done say 6 designs and put it to a vote from the fans. That would've satisfied the majority. Instead they've gone ahead without  any input from the customers, sorry, fans! Seems a lot of money to remove the word 'Prepared' which I liked on the badge. The club has a talent at the moment for inviting criticism. They should've scrapped Fox's idea. Virtually everything he did was wrong.

Very ironic that after a season  in which the players have shown little or no "Claws" that the design of the Lion is changed to show more aggression. I believe that the Villa have been pulled up via the old "Trades Description Act" since the use of the word "Prepared" on the current club badge has given the totally misleading impression that competence and forethought and indeed "planning" have take place prior to the start of the 2015 16 season.

The reality is of course that a series of random off the cuff, back of a fag packet decisions were taken that involved licking the tip of a finger and holding it up in the air.

The new badge is not bad but the players are complete and utter shite and should not be allowed to wear any garment that had our badge on it.

Cracking idea, design a badge that incorporates our club captain.

I can kind of see why they went with the other one...

Two million quid for this does seem a bit steep.

Can the ''players'' be made to wear a kit with the hippo badge on it for the rest of the season?

I agree. And now Wunderbar has put Rammstein's Amerika in my head.
