I'd get rid of most of those questions and simply go with:

What are the most important features to you of our crest?
Then just give people options like: colours, name, shape, slogan, star, lion, lion direction, date, etc. and ask them to rank them or give slider options.

That gives you broad strokes of what people see as essential to consider and what can be removed/replaced without annoying people.
For the ones that are a little more vague (like shape) you can then produce a few options and have a vote purely on that element.

Yep, was trying to show what I meant, in that guided closed questions will give a different outcome to open questions that really gauge feelings.

Focus groups? We’ll have candles, bells being rung, breathing exercises and scatter cushions all over the place next.

I’m always reminded of this whenever anyone mentions focus groups

"Claret and Azure" - wtf is that?! I missed that memo. We may struggle to fit that into existing songs. Is that from the club?

Whatever questions you ask the majority will lean towards as close to a 1982 badge as we can get, for reasons discussed earlier.  But just because that the popular option it doesn’t mean it’s the best option.

Nostalgia permeates so many decisions in life and it's often really annoying, it just clouds judgements.

For once in our lives we actually have world class operators in charge everywhere at the club, let's drop our parochial, backwards thinking and go with it, see where it takes us

If they re-do the badge, don't ask the bloody fans, for fuck sake. Just make a decision, get somebody decent in to design it, and leave it at that.

God forbid we have a badge that's popular with Villa fans.

There has to be some form of consultation.

Would you prefer a lion or a bloke tapping his chest with his fist?

Would you prefer claret and blue or blue and white?

Job done.

Sadly when you are owned by successful billionaires they can pretty much do whatever they want, as lerner did with the current mess. I wonder if the 76er’s fans we consulted on their branding.
