Until a few years ago the round badge was still in existence on some of the carpets in the North Stand, so the Lerner badge might carry on existing in some form or other for a few years yet.

Things like the mosaics on the Holte End and the windows of the Holte Pub are two I can't see changing quickly.

They won't change at all.

I dread to think what sort of blue-sky thinking corporate nonsense Josh and Hannah from Fluffy PR will come up with to describe the new one.

If you want to get in the mood for that, have a look at The Register's Logowatch

https://search.theregister.com/?q=logowatch

Some of the crap companies come up with to justify their logo/brand changes are toe-curlingly embarrassing.

I wonder how many times the Fluffy PR team used the word "inclusivity" in their pitch.

It's just so much better than the ones we've had for the last 30 years. I just love that it says Aston Villa.

I found myself noting this week that Calmac ferries have their lion facing both left and right on their ships.

I hope there's a forum of hardcore ferry fanciers absolutely raging.
