What do they expect me to reply to "Is the shape important?"

"No, it is not. Do what you want. Why not have a cock and balls with 'Prepared' and stars shooting out of the bellend?" Tsk!

"Please replace 'Prepared' with 'Demanding'.

They call it a crest - it shouldn't be a crest; it may be a disc... it could be a standalone.
A leading-questions questionnaire again.

It says something like "the club believes the shield best represents the history..."

I've told them I'd like it to be circular, like on the current kits.

I've tried to check the t&c's for the prize draw before ticking the box, as I currently wouldn't put it past them to be making a claim on an organ or two. Comes up as a 404 error.

I will say exactly the same, love the 'new' badge.

I’ve told them I want The Aston Villa on the badge.

Haven't had one either.
I am not surprised what with your outspoken views. The number of times you have said “that’s not difficult to get right” is very inflammatory.

You see it’s all these circular arguments that the club needs to shield against.

I just completed it.  No star for me on the crest either.  Star and 1874 can go somewhere else on the shirt.  Not too bothered about 'Prepared' being on there as it hasn't be used for some time.

I still think the badge on the Scotland 150th anniversary shirt is the way we should go, with AVFC above it.

I like that but maybe Aston Villa F C   instead

‘The cock and balls design pays homage to the squad of ‘82, who all owned a set, and the 67 stars seen shooting from the bellend represent the elapsed minutes when the winning goal hit the net’

My day rates are competitive.

If it’s a shield, so be it, but I’d have preferred circular.
My requirements.

Must contain.

Aston Villa F.C
Prepared
1874
Lion facing left
Predominantly claret and blue (stupid question)
I like a star.

If the opinions expressed on here today are anything to go by, nobody is in agreement and the surveys will reflect that.

Haven't had one either.

The survey looks as if it can only be taken/entered by those with a FAN ID - if you don't have one  you don't seem to be getting the email.

Restrictive and discriminatory?

Not at all.  I wouldn't want fans who don't have a fan ID voting on it, otherwise it would be hijacked by Smallheath trolls.

Why should you have to have a fan ID?
Not having one doesn't make me any less a fan.
Been attending since 1956 and followed the club through the dark days of Div 3, so why can't I have a say?


Look at the badge from the early 70s.
Plain lion rampant facing left with AVFC beneath.

The same would be good, or alternately with either Prepared or 1874 below would be my choice.
