Crest Review

[danno]

Like the new badge. One thing that's confused me in the debate about the lion looking forward/backward though... doesn't it depend where he's going? If he's going the post office up the road he's now facing forwards, if he's going the pictures down the road, he's now facing backwards?

I guess he wouldn't be rampant if he was going to the pictures.

Depends, maybe Bella is forcing him to go see a rom-com.

He may be OCD like me, which means he's locked his front door, but heading back again to check that it is actually locked.  Three times.

Depends who he's going with, the frisky little so and so.

I sent a question regarding the star not being allowed outside of the crest, as per info given to me by that Krulak chap when Lerner designed our crest in MS Paint back in 06, to the Premier League.

This was their response...

I am unsure in what context the guidance was given to Aston Villa, however the League doesn't currently operate any formal recognition scheme for (multiple) champions so we have no specific rules for the use of stars. The current Champion can elect to wear a gold version of the Premier League sleeve badge for the duration of the following Season.

Any additional branding on kits, for example the use of the UEFA Club World Cup emblem, requires approval from the League.

To my knowledge, The FA Kit Regulations don't extend into this area either, although they do contain some rules and guidance concerning the use and size of emblems. It may be worth checking with them directly for clarify on this.

Taking the piss now imo.

Anyone know anything?

Burnley have just announced a crest change and theirs is already being used on the PL website.

I guess the owners have put the brakes on with the departure of Purslow and Heck coming in to post with Monchi's imminent arrival. The whole thing can be joined up. I do wonder if we'll be waiting until 1st July, when the new sponsor etc comes in to play as well. It certainly makes sense to me to be able to deliver the whole package in one go, along with the new kit. There is significant change, the players are away now too so can't launch anything with their assistance.

The new Burnley badge looks shit.

The weird upwards arrow squiggle makes it look like it was made in 8-bit.

The new Burnley badge looks shit.

Looks like a scene from Manic Minor

Hmm, I would have thought they'd get it out by now in order to make sure it's the new badge in all the PL stuff this season.

I bet we end up with a mix of two of them being used.

Although I guess shirt sponsorship etc etc.

[Smirker]

That's what I've started thinking. Something is going on I bet. Imagine we use the old one still because we didn't get the kits done in time or something stupid.

It won't be that, it will likely be some sort of complication involving a change of sponsor etc etc etc.
