Just on the club's online store thinking about gift ideas. I didn't realise that they were selling so much gift/accessory stuff with the 'Purslow badge'. I thought they  had limited it to the kits when they decided not to stick with it.

I guess these items will have a novelty value in years to come

Just noticed the France badge (that was done in 2018).
Two stars above, cock dressing right. Fuck the Francophobe Fuckers! at the bottom. Lovely. Wouldn't have taken much to put the 3rd one that we deserved if EMI hadn't been so ace that day.

How very French to have a badge with a big cock on it.

I don't like the stretched hexagon on that, but the cockerel looks pretty good.

You like the cock, yes?

Why did I just pronounce that in a Dutch accent?

That's exactly the sort of thing I'd like to see for us, a lion that's unique enough that it's identifiably 'us' even on it's own and then simple and neat elements around it that can be added or taken away as needed. As Risso said the only thing I don't like is the slightly stretched sides.

I really don't like it tbh and very much hope we don't go down the abstract route.

Infact, with the terrible Hexagon shape I'd go as far to say that is the worst French badge I've ever seen.

That is the logo of the Fédération Française du Football, the one on the shirts is different:

Now for me, that is beautiful.  Clean, classy traditional.  Not some car logo-esk monstrosity.

It will be interesting to see what they do for the 2024 Euro kit. I do realise this is a Villa badge thread so I will totally refrain from posting stuff about France. Ahem.

No, I think that latest one is a perfect example of what a great badge can be.  And decent placement of the stars.

I reckon the two different logos thing (in the sense of variations of A logo, not like we have now, which is a sort of managerial clusterfuck) as per the French national team is the way we'll go.
