A bit surprised to see Roma there. Are they really that big? You don't come across fans with Roma shirts often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't come across fans with Roma shirts often. I'm surprised to see Liverpool there.....particularly as they're still sponsored by Nike ? The current deal finishes at the end of this season, but I doubt the Liverpool hierarchy have given 'footy headlines' or (whoever the fook they are) the inside scoop on a new kit deal.....

479Villan Posted Wednesday at 23:11 Share Posted Wednesday at 23:11 Was discussing this today. I've seen a picture or two online of a black sweatshirt with VILLANS (the cursive print on the tunnel wall on the left). Is this a club production or fan made? I've been looking for photos but can't find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPower_14 Posted Thursday at 04:23 Share Posted Thursday at 04:23 I fully acknowledge that a baseball cap style hat isn't really a British thing, but i've wanted a good quality Villa hat for years and we just don't ever seem to sell them. It's something basically every other team seems to have a bit of a range of, but nothing for us for years. Some clubs even have a deal with the hat specialist brands like New Era or 47 brand, and we can't even get an Adidas branded hat. The headwear section of the website contains one Christmas beanie in both adults and kids sizes, and it feels like it's basically always been like that. It's weird. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the nice adidas gear, I feel we are really behind on the merch front. I went to the store and wanted to buy a big mug to enjoy my large tea in. Couldn't find one. I also looked for a nice baseball cap; couldn't find one. I think this will be worked on (it's a big revenue stream, especially in the build up to Xmas) and I feel Heck could make some good money there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the plan is to double the size of the club shop then you'd assume they'll be bringing out a load more stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did also receive an apology email from the company today saying that demand meant that there had been a slight delay fulfilling all orders. Hopefully yours should arrive soon if not already done so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't think I'd be waiting this long for something with £3.25 delivery on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if we're behind because we signed up with Adidas so late, and whether that will improve significantly next year. Even our Adidas options feel fairly barebones compared to other Adidas clubs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
