Title: Official Merchandise Catalogue
Post by: Clampy on October 19, 2013, 12:00:56 PM
Has anyone has one off their Postie this morning?

On Page 66, there are some of those tiny player figures available. Amusingly, the Marc Albrighton one looks absolutely nothing like him.

It looks more like Gareth Barry than Albrighton.

I can see Frank grinning at me from the top right-hand corner of the Weimann celebration picture.

No to the onesie.

Regarding those figurines, CLARK looks like he's high at some acid rave party.

Those honours mirrors in the shop window behind were really nice - mine had pride of place on my bedroom wall in 1980.

What a fantastic picture, would love one of those rugby shirts or that claret pullover modelled by Mr Geddis, whom I very much resembled at that age

I found that picture along with a load of other Villa stuff while having an attic clear out  earlier.

Does anyone buy out of catalogues any more? I thought the internet made them obsolete?

I've got visions of the Villa sending a middle-aged woman round for £5 every week .

Had it a few weeks back. Clark's little figure looks Demonic.

I like the retro coats.

May I ask if there is a section on the forum where we can sell our villa memorabilia and things, the reason i ask is I have a nike navy villa coat never been worn still with tags - it was too big and I never got round to taking it back- wife bought it for Xmas and paid £49 at the time.

I'm sure there was a thread somewhere with villa stuff for sale but I can't find it.

The Weimann winner was one of those moments you remember years down the line   ..  You can't buy memories like that .

Generally I agree but I want to buy a new sweat shirt with my ST freebie money but don't like the colours shown online - the catalogue has 2 other colours so I'll probably buy via that

Given in to temptation and ordered 2 polo shirts and a jacket - £107 in total  towards the coffers.
