Crest Review

[LeeB]

No, it's beacuse they're worried they won't be able to get the headed paper reprinted in the blackouts this winter.

I had an email from The Trust indicating that the final vote is imminent, but because of the lead in time on kits we are unlikely to be using the new crest before our our 150th season.

So I guess with that deadline passing, there is now no rush. In fact, it starts to make sense to drag it out a bit more.

So we're going to have to wait nearly two years before it actually changes?

Next season is our "150th season" isn't it? If you don't discount the ones when we didn't play because Archy Duke shot an ostrich cos he was hungry.

[Smirker]

There might still be time to get rid of the star then.

Also I noticed Bradford City have just released three designs for a new crest. Two have stars on for their FA Cup win. Even their fans don't want it

Think of it more as just over a year and a half! ;
I guess the new one will be coming into effect towards the end of next season. The new stand will have it built in. I guess we’ll be starting to see it on some merchandise by then, but if we miss the kit deadline, then we won’t be seeing it on shirts next season.
It’s a shame but trying to consult on/launch a new crest in the middle of SFG’s demise would have been a PR nightmare and this is what we are left with.

Why so glum? We'll vote Smirker if we can.

How is the vote going to be run in such a way as to stop it being rigged, or voting from people who are not Villa fans?

Also is this a binding vote or an advisory one?

It's only open to members and being done by some proper election company.

Thank you mate, hopefully I'll be smirking when the winner is announced.

You only pay three quid but you have to vote for Corbyn.
