I would bet he did a power point presentation where he come up with the ridiculous catch phrase too. I think it looks horrendous tbh. We need to mix it up with the colours though - we use claret and blue literally everywhere. So having something a bit different and hopefully inspiring for the players to walk out to is a good thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point though, that is possibly more or less what it’s going to be like. Who runs out of it and what they then do is more important though. Yeah I’d be surprised if there wasn’t a light show or something along those lines as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colour psychology is an ACTUAL thing as well in fairness. Regardless of how anyone wants to downplay it. Especially in branding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it’s intimidating for the opposition and not ourselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in branding. Not dismissing it, just questioning how big the affect would be on PL level athletes coming to Villa Park and standing around for a couple minutes in a tunnel. Would the difference be big enough to to validate giving up our brand colours? I actually have an acquaintance who is a professor at the Uni here and who's work is in just this area. He's geared towards consumer behavior, branding and product placing in stores but it applies. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 I've seen a lot of comments on social media that despite spending fortunes on some parts of the stadium, the GA offering is still sh*t if not worse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They removed the blue and claret cladding in between the tiers of both Witton and Trinity stands. Looks like LED but wasn't working today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a shame if they didn't return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted August 24 Moderator Share Posted August 24 Like many of the things in Heck's interview, I don't think the LED lights have actually been installed yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
