Completely get that. Did you draw one previously that you sent to the club for a proof of concept?

Also who knows maybe we’ll start to look at it with the new chief business officer considering her history with commercial at Villa.

No. No proof of concept, again its a time thing. Good point re the new appointments.

Why did we change the colour of the elephant in the mid-90s? This, and why did the 87/88 team picture not include the FAC? are the two decades old burning questions I have never received an answer to!

Because an orange elephant is ludicrous.

Let’s just pull this one from the archives

The elephant in that just reminds me of watching Jungle Book

I'm with you. I have always liked that design. Simplified but still retains some core elements.

However, I also recognize that as an American, I may be a bit predisposed to that style of crest. I am the last one to get any input on the matter of any wholesale change.

I quite like that. But the castle needs to look more like the traditional castle on the crest.

All this talk of elephants when we should be going back to chickens. Get it sorted Doug

Having slept on this, I’ve realised that the power has clearly gone to King’a head and he’s looking to franchise us in America.

First we had the signing of Haji Wright; King’s transatlantic drawl that even Clive started to copy and now this new Americanised badge.

Come on you Blue Skies!

Excuse the 5-minute job, as the dark lines need to be cleaned up and removed, but this is roughly what that would look like.

Ah, the Mick Coop days.

Gonna annoy you now .

But would that look better with one castle/rock (don’t mind the retro of the original) and instead of the badge with the name , a ribbon underneath the ball?

 

[oakey]

Ah, the Mick Coop days.

But don't let the Cattlin

If the badge did get redone the meltdown on here would be hilarious. The marketing speak to accompany it would drive you lot up the wall.

 

[Sick Boy]

It’s amazing how any old bullshit on here turns into something that’s likely to happen.

You wouldn't get a Jimmy Hill revolution now

If Google AI says it’s happening, it’s happening.
