Man Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea don't. They obviously don't feel like they need to prove anything.

I hate to disagree but outside of Villa circles, I don't think many know or (spit) care. Bear in mind the media (and therefore people generally) often take the view that Newcastle and Leeds, for example, are bigger than Villa. I really think it's because we added a star to our badge that people are more aware of the club's accomplishment.Why not celebrate the club's finest hour? It's the least that team deserve.

I’m a massive hypocrite as probably half the staff on every hospital ward I’ve ever worked on know I’m a Villa fan and it can be a running joke about me ‘never mentioning’ that I was there as a nipper, but on the whole - seasons like the last aside - I side with the danger of too much living in the past and we don’t need a star to prove anything. But I think you are right so many don’t realise we ever won it, you might have won me round. You’d like to think we don’t need a star for the same reason as others that have won it multiples/recently, but I guess until we have that problem of ‘just how many stars is it right to have on the badge?’ I can cope with it being there.

Then shirt. A star floating above the badge, no thank you. Looks worse/even more small time.
The badge really does need changing, it’s not bad the stripey one but it’s piss poor.
