Crest Review

[Nii Lamptey]

I was all for the return of the round badge, as it's by far my favourite badge in our history, but as people have mentioned, EVERY Tom, Dick and Harry is doing it now. Feel we've missed the boat really.

I'm now leaning towards favouring no shield or round badge at all - Just a lion emblem with the words (NOT ABBREVIATION!) Aston Villa. Works for Spurs and Forest

I voted for an irregular octagon shaped badge. Mainly because you can design it to look like Pac-Man.

80’s badge and include the star. Simple
Design but oozes class.

I reckon a septagon. Criminally underrated shape, beats the shit out of it's poor 5, 6, and 8 sided cousins

Sky have voted that they want a picture of Steven Gerrard’s face as the new ‘crest’.

Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa.

I ended up going with Spurs as one of my choices - I quite like the stand alone idea tbh. The Liver bird also lends itself to that & I am pretty sure Liverpool have done that at times. I like the simplicity.

The most important thing is to get rid of that insipid yellow.

Agreed... ANDthe star unless it can sit proudly top and center!
Looks stuck on in hurry in it's current position.... Forest's two stars look far more professional.

The star should sit above the badge and not be part of it. Although it's quite ambiguous what the stars represent at club level.

Those were the two that went down well at the FCG last night. And get rid of the star.

I'd be happy with a stand-alone emblem as well, if a lion didn't appear on so many badges/crests.

Just curious, I love the round badge. I'm in my 50's, so as a kid it had fond memories. I voted the round, but also liked Arsenal's. How would people on here feel if the club went down a similar route to say, Gloucester Rugby and revamped the lion.

That will give us something to throw darts at! Good shout Paul.
