I've already decided I'm not going to be happy with it.

Rumblings on twitter.. lion, no circle or shield, Aston Villa and 1874 with the star.

I bet that's exactly what we get, too.

Other than the atrocious star, that's what I'm hoping for.

It's an emphatic no from me, I'm afraid.

They're OK if you do away with the star cutting the 1874 in half.

If there must be star I’d rather it was there rather than spoiling the lion’s view.

I imagine it will be similar to the bottom one, only with the lion facing left & the star around the paw area.

They mocked something like that up on the side of the stadium on the last design. Think it was on a video...

I like that, would be better without the star but otherwise it's everything I'm hoping for.

If they're going to change it that radically from Lerner's crayon drawing, there's no excuse for not sticking with the present one.
I don't see what correlation you're drawing here?

They obviously don't think the round badge is right for various reasons discussed at length on this thread.  What has a significant change from the Lerner badge got to do with keeping / not keeping the round badge?
Yes, sorry. Having re-read it, it doesn't make sense. I guess I thought if they were prepared to change the current one, it wouldn't matter what to.

I could get behind that. In blue on the shirt, mind. And I don't really see why the lion isn't facing left.

Is that what's on the blazers currently? Emery was wearing one at one of the games, can't remember which, and people were saying what was on his jacket should be the new crest.

Blazers is the lion with avfc underneath, it's ok but needs to be Aston Villa on the kit
