abdomlahor Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 I just don’t understand why the lion is usually yellow on our badges. Just make it claret for better contrast against the blue background and it’s perfect for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against a light blue background it can be difficult to distinguish what exactly it is from a distance, or if the image is smaller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness the only issue I have with it is the font. It looked great in stitching until Hummel got hold of it between 2004 to 2007. How they got away with such a poor rendering of the badge when they were the official kit supplier, I will never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It stands out on Claret though, which is what I think we are saying. If the background was claret, the gold would be perfect. However if they insist on sticking with current background, Claret Lion would actually make sense IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the risk of a backlash, I really don’t like the blue on the current crest. It’s too light imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More just expressing exasperation that the annual whinge about the club badge and how it should be round and the fonts are wrong and it doesn’t say “Aston Villa” but “AVFC” has surfaced once again. We go again. Edit: Maybe I won’t mention that the very first post on this thread is from me Edited August 12, 2021 by Spoony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDR V2 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 This seems to depend on how old you are. Always preferred round to a shield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 The thing with any new version of the crest is that it will no doubt be designed so it'll be easy to print and adjust in size. It'll be less details and more streamlined. Think more Juventus/Inter/West Ham/Barcelona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
