Fans Worried Over Villa Future

[peter w]

Shit. With your blood pressure too.

[Hopadop]

I'm worried that I quite like the new badge and am therefore weird.

[cheltenhamlion]

[OCD]

Shit. With your blood pressure too.

I know, but my tablets are ace, proper space hoppers!

Did you take the blue one or the red one? One of them has you envisioning Alice in Wonderland or something.

[Drummond]

I'm worried that we'll soon have nothing to worry about. The season's over.

[claretandblue barmy]

Good luck kidda.

cheers hopefully tomorrow i can get back to worrying about more exciting issues.

[JD]

The red one, it must be that one.

Don't get them mixed up with the girlfriends or you could end up pregnant.

It is obvious that the club had already decided that we were going to be re-branded AVFC. They are obviously seeing us as a business venture and will market us as such. They are attempting to sell our soul and become less of a football club and more of corporate prostitute. Have they come here to make us happy and give us what we want? No. have they come here to make money from a club that has never been marketed properly and could be as big as the Liverpools/Arsenals/Chelseas of this world? Absolutely.

The fact that there were 3 Aston Villas in the badge vote is indicative of the fact that they were trying to split that vote and having one AVFC proved that.

So, we are starting to see the Aston Villa that the board want. A brand not a club. Are we happy with that? In 10 years after 2 European Cups, a league title, 3 FA Cups, 3 League Cups are we really going to care?

We are kind of at a crossroads for supporters. What do we really want from Aston Villa. Success at the cost of the Club we know. Or the club we know at the cost of success?

[ROBBO]

Its the only way clubs can be successful, if supporters want to follow a club that is run like a family concern then they should look outside of the premiership. All the negative crap written about the re branding is silliness in the extreme, we don't have any shareholding in the club and the owner may pay lip service to the supporters but in the end he will do exactly as he likes, our tribe now has a new chief and he is almighty.

[peter w]

Isn't that what Doug was criticised for?

[OCD]

A big part of evolution is evolving.

[peter w]

I'm worried that I won't be able to cope without Villa until August.
