Crest Review

[Rico]

Let's remember that a professional design team came up with our current shit badge, and a professional design team came up with the Leeds horror show. Maybe listening to the fans is not such a bad idea after all? (Sorry for attaching the Leeds badge thingy! At least it was good for a laugh whilst it lasted.)

Apparently the star is still on them, so disappointing. File us with Forest/Huddersfield as a club with an inferiority complex. "We were big once, honest!"

This. And for the same reason I hate the banners for our EC winning goal.

It’s not our history’s problem that our current team is a bit meh!!  We should never stop celebrating our achievements as much as we should hold our owners/managers and players accountable for not making new achievements.

Banners, stars are fine by me

Knocked up in 5 mins... imagine the third one with a claret lion...

Decent. Any chance you could add a scroll thingy either at the top or the bottom with "prepared" on it?

[London Villan]

Ha not quickly!

Of course we should never forget the achievements of our glorious past but our owners have repeatedly said that they want to return us to the elite of European football. Can you imagine Barca, Real Madrid, Milan etc putting up huge banners describing a goal in a European Cup final? It just smacks of small time thinking to me. We need to start thinking like an elite club and acting like one if we're to become one.

The banner is class. We don't want to just be a generic Southampton type team playing at some boring identikit stadium. Celebrate the history, it's our greatest asset. The banner is one of the things that helps us stand out. It's the sort of thing some Villa fans rush to condemn as "small time" but literally no fans of other clubs think so.

I can think of a couple.

No problem with the banner in the ground. Shouldn’t be on the badge though.

[cdbearsfan]

No, agreed. That would be silly.

OK.

I say rename Villa Park to Birmingham De Kuip, in honour of our European Cup win. Then change the walkout music to the CL anthem, in honour of our European Cup win. Play a home pre season friendly every year against our opponents that night, Bayern Munich, and unveil a new digital clock outside the ground with the time constantly set at the moment the goal was scored. All in honour of our European Cup win!

Wont make us look small time at all...

[cdbearsfan]

Because that's exactly the same as one banner. Let's never mention our history, we can pretend to be some pointless club like Reading or MK Dons. That won't be small time.

I love the banner.  The star notsomuch.

[Smirker]

The banner doesn't bother me. The star does and the logic behind it is stupid.

'Let's copy European clubs and put a star above our crest, it will look great. Oh we're not allowed well let's just squash it in anywhere as long as its there so everyone can see we actually won something once.'

That's the only reason fans want it in. Im sick of us telling people we're a big club. It's time to act like it.

Be a bit of a squeeze to get all that on to a badge I'd imagine.
