Always on the lookout for older replicas Classic Football Shirts mate. They had the black third kit from 07/08 and the away from 08/09 but I just looked and they're gone, couple of used ones on there though. I won't be buying another shirt until the crest is changed to the circular 80s one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't be buying a villa shirt again then, someone on here might know more but I think the circle badge was changed because of copyright problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Home: Claret and blue shirt with collar, white shorts, black socks. (The strip for a big chunk of the mid 20th century, so a nod to tradition) Away: White shirt no collar, white shorts, claret socks. Change: Black shirt no collar, black shorts, claret socks.

I also want us to reacquire a more maroon shade of claret. For too long now, IMO, our shade of claret has been on the pinkish side, especially in strong light. Umbro would sort us out, their kits have always been the coolest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be nothing stopping the club from having the 80s one slightly modernised. Aston Villa Football Club on it, gold lion rampant (redo it with both and then let the fans vote on a claret lion or gold lion) and for the love of God remove that **** star. Failing that, either just return to the pre-Randy crest or have an embroidered gold lion rampant on the shirts similar to how they've been putting it on the back of the shirts on the neck. Use that for the main crest on the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I understand it's not always possible due to sponsors and kit suppliers, but I really like when teams play their final home game of the season in the kit they are going to use next season. Would be nice for Villa to do that some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to honor the deals in place and have designs done well in advance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 IncogAVFC has tweeted we're due to announce Groupon as our next shirt sponsor. Think the account has had some correct information in the past (no doubt I'll be corrected and informed he's a spotty 14yr old on his laptop!)

villan-scott Posted May 12, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted May 12, 2017 Imagine the Villa deals you'd get on Groupon if true! I'd be surprised if it was, I thought it would be linked to Dr Tony and his companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Groupon is massive in UK. Certainly bigger than QuickBooks. This would be quite a coup for us if true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
