OzzieMandias Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 The old one's better. I've never looked at it closely before, though. "Prepared" is like the fucking boy scouts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1878 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Jesus christ. What the fuck have they done? Looks like some 10 year old drew a cartoon lion on MS Paint. It's got mongy looking arms. The shield is a bit rubbish as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Don't get me fucking started on this. Prepared is the motto and always has been but is whacked on the bottom as an afterthought (and Villa predate the scouts by several decades, before you ask). The star refers to the European Cup win but makes us look small time for having it there. The AVFC across the top is a fucking disgrace, we have (imho) one of the most historic names in football, we're not some fucking acronym. And the type face is shite as well. We're fucking gutted about it, the first fuck up of the new regime. However, I soon stopped being too worried when i read this article in The Times today: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premiership/aston_villa/article1739139.ece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say you should be, I implied that you're mired in precisely the same vat of sticky mediocrity that we are. Only slightly more mired. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Have you always had the current badge, brummie? No, that was an Ellis invention of a few years ago. The original badge was a shield, claret with blue lion, very simple. Then we had a very 70s one which was round and very stylish in its time (like your one i mentioned above) which i personally loved but only because it was our badge when i got into football. Then the s*** stripey Ellis invention, and now this f****** abomination, which does indeed look like some 13 year old knocked it up in Paint. I'm very, very f***** off, and so are most of our fans.
