As an ironic statement I bought my shirt half way through last season with Downing 6 on the back.

Has anyone confirmed that it is only a 1 year shirt?


Well every shirt for the last 14 seasons has been.

That collar isn't right.

I am starting to think Nike have put minimal effort into this.

Villa said ' we want the corporate checks in the shirts and maybe the socks'

Nike took a previous shirt with such a design and changed the colours to claret and blue.

Forex then came into the equation and Nike production team sucked between their teeth.

Nike's marketing team were too engaged with the ManUre. Barca, Arsenal lovefests to be all that bothered about Villa, so here we are, looking about important to Nike as Kiddy Harriers used to be.

Amazing.

I will not be buying it - dreadful commercial cockup.

This season I shall be mostly wearing the 1957 FA Cup winners shirt until MON and his players win the bloody thing.

Of course, for those who sit next to me a VP I shall take it off to wash it. (My wife told me to say)

Well at least nobody will waste any money having MILNER 8 on the back.

Are those polo shirts on sale in the club shop yet?

Purple things, big lion on them. Those.

Oh, and random shirt comment .. I don't buy them (retro for me, if any), but I can understand why people are pissed off that they're not on sale for a full month into the season.

Not to mention the fact that they look fucking awful.

This is why have too sell to buy,

We are making no money from merchandise, we are not going on tour attracting more support.

It's a joke no wonder spurs have got fourth at the first try, we have had 2 attempts bought shit players and wasted a lot of money!

It's a poor show really is'nt it? You should be able to have them to wear for the first game of the season, not 6 games in.

This is the sort of shambolic nonsense that you'd expect under HDE. Surely we should have a contract that requires Nike to have the shirt ready for the new season, or they face a penalty?

I tell you want I'll help them out at VP. Get working on the 2011/12 shirt now, and it may be ready on time. We should be selling the effing things in June FFS.

The board have done so much good, but I get the feeling that their eye is not on the ball at the moment.

Chelsea wore theirs for the FA cup final, no wonder our wage bill is so high. I wouldn't come here if I was a player!

Yup, the shop in town had them a couple of weeks back.
