His interviews suggest he has zero issue with doing that (constant talking down of legacy deals, done whilst the club was a comparatively poor sell, is very coded). And it comes across terribly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted Wednesday at 06:11 Share Posted Wednesday at 06:11 I also think the shield looks so much better than the round we had last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted Wednesday at 10:03 Share Posted Wednesday at 10:03 Now it's been out in the wild for a while I'm getting slowly used to it, and have nearly reached the acceptance phase of grieving. Still think it's crap, but its here so whatever. The drop shadow monochrome version of the badge that we saw SLJ (SIC) and EB reveals was terrible. Just looked like it was an out of focus picture. The standard version at smaller sizes is a blurry out of proportion mess. The full size colour version with drop shadow is OK, but it's not good enough for what we should have. The full size monochrome version without drop shadow is a slight improvement on the standard version, but still far from brilliant. That's what you get taking it in house and cost cutting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Townsend Posted Wednesday at 10:41 Share Posted Wednesday at 10:41 (edited) The Netherlands badge is class and shows you a lion does not have to be yellow. If they had to compromise on the round badge, and revert to a shield, they could at least have kept the claret lion. Is that such an outrageous opinion for someone like me to hold?

Remember when, for so many months, we thought we might actually have a chance at getting a standalone lion as our badge? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted Wednesday at 11:04 Share Posted Wednesday at 11:04 (edited) It’s kind of funny, after all the discussion and so many designs or mockups in this thread (let alone all the other places online), after all the different considerations and potential options… and after two separate “processes”, “consultations” or surveys… that we’ve just ended up with, and are well and truly stuck with, a Lerner refresh What a bloody farce. Yellow on blue will never die!! Edited Wednesday at 11:07 by Jas10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted Wednesday at 11:11 VT Supporter Share Posted Wednesday at 11:11 That drop shadow makes me want to be a danger to myself and other people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolta Posted Wednesday at 11:45 Share Posted Wednesday at 11:45 The drop shadow specifically on the monochrome badge is the most insane thing I've ever seen. I don't care as much on the main badge, only that it's so big. Shadows are meant to be darker than the colour of whatever they're being cast onto. But our shadow, cast from the lion onto the training top is lighter than the training top. It makes no sense!!!! It's a drop mid tone or something, definitely not a shadow. It's like the lion is farting out a very sharp and specifically shaped glow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The England badge’s three blue lions would agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarryOnVilla Posted Thursday at 06:13 Share Posted Thursday at 06:13 Are we really at this stage in the conversation where we think the crest lion is yellow because real lions are yellow?!? You’re all idiots. Real lions are Savanna blonde, everyone knows that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted Thursday at 11:57 Share Posted Thursday at 11:57 The badge is a load of shit but the training wear we've seen is instantly recognisable as being Aston Villa. Arguing between this and the round badge is just arguing between a 3/10 and a 4/10 so the familiarity is good I guess. It'd be nice to have a proper badge but our process for rebranding has been bad time and time again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
