Crest Review

Ah, that feels better....





edit @Drummond : you're too quick for me !

Job done. Now you just have to create a poll for supporters about whether they like this version or the one with the lion the wrong way round. I reckon 77% will prefer this one…

Actually, that is a great idea.

Pete with The Holy Trinity has a great take and I wholeheartedly agree with almost everything he says here,

After the monstrosity he came up with I’d take his views on badges with a pinch of salt tbh

Edit - just watched it and you’re right, he’s spot on

Lol, he was a guy messing around on MS Paint. He literally said, "I'm not a graphic designer. I don't really want feedback from you saying that I don't like that aspect or i didn't like this. That's not the point of the exercise. The point is, there has to be meaning behind design elements."

I honestly think my favourite of all of them would be the 56 one.

I actually like the idea of going balls out and not putting our name on it all, and even keeping 'Prepared', as we have the man in charge who makes preparation a weapon that any of you fucking pretenders will beaten soundly with.

Polish it up a bit, make the lion more lush and aggressive and we're away.

After seeing all the previous historical badges, why the fuck would you turn the lion around to face the other way?

Easy marketing cop out to me, awful decision and an awful badge.

Personal favourite is the 70/80’s and the 90’s (looks the same to me) or have the 1956 version but add Aston Villa above it perhaps.

That's what they said in 1956.

I don't really mind which way he's facing tbh.

I had the new one inked on my leg months ago- I really am not bothered if its kept or not - it looks good (I think) for my tattoo...

[ldavfc4eva]

Tattoo looks great Atomic

It faced left long before it was on the shirt in the 50s.

It was used on many Villa things including programmes.

Here is one from 1950 as an example.

You'll still have a lion facing the right way no matter what happens.

There's a number of errors on that graphic of badges.

I can understand why some are upset and feel it’s embarrassing. I can’t gather the energy to give a shit either way.

‘Elvis was a hero to most, but he didn’t mean shit to me. ‘

‘Elvis was a hero to most, but he didn’t mean shit to me. ‘

That plus the ‘racist simple and plain, mother fuck him and John Wayne, etc etc hyped and amped most of my heroes don’t appear on no stamps’ bit is one of the most spine tinglingly brilliant moments in music.

How fucking revolutionary hip hop used to be.
