It is the name of our club that is known across the footballing world. Crests come and go over time, let’s get this all into perspective.

The tournament have not made a cock up. It's Villa using two badges. One for the shirts and one for everywhere else. When you're trying to promote yourself to a global market that's a terrible way to go. You want a consistent badge and branding

This'll set Wilma off.

Dougie doesn't look pleased either, he prefers the round badge as well.


I think its because Phil is touching his arse.

You have ignored the point. Aston Villa is the brand, badges come and go.

The middle classes will be able to spot the nuances of the branding situation and see through it. It's only the working class oiks who won't and they can't afford the £7.90 we charge for Fosters these days, so don't worry about it. Tally ho!

It may have already been made up for them by someone in US of A. What does it matter anyway, it's not a big deal.
Was going to say the same thing. Someone's cocked up, but it's not to say that it's someone from inside the club. Not a big deal anyway, nobody* is going to lose their shit over it.


* Well, one person will...

Its not a "cock up".

Its how Chris Heck wants to present our brand this year while he does his deciding...

I can't think of another globally recognised brand that would have two differing logos on show at the same time.

Maybe it is a question of grammar and the Lerner MS Paint abomination is to be used for "Aston Villa is..." And the round, lion-facing-the-wrong-way badge is for "Aston Villa are..."

I think people are assuming the badge will be changed everywhere.

I bet it doesn't change on the Holte mosaic.

I'll pre-empt Wilma's whinge when that turns out to be the case right now.

No.  But I think Heck's reasoning is sound.  I'd rather spend 5m on a player than on a rebrand that we don't have confidence in.  They could have pretty easily changed the digital branding too, but that would have made it harder to drop it next season.
