Best Kit Ever

[itbrvilla]

Interestingly whenever we have had vertical stripes we have won something or at least got to the final.

Looking at those kits, 1957 - FA Cup, 1982 (away kit) European Cup, 1987/88 Promotion and 2000 FA Cup Runner Up.

This is the first season since then we've had a stirpy kit *Praying emoticon*

not forgetting 1994

Of course.  Not a bad omen is it ?

We just need to play someone in red in the final so we wear our away kit.  Middlesborough will do  [-o<

FA Cup Final 2008 - Swindon Town vs. Aston Villa.

Mark my words.

i think aston villa will win the fa cup this season, i have this feeling. but if villa dont win a trophy this or next season, it will be the 1st decade since the club was formed, that the club haven't won a trophy.

[TheSandman]

I think with the current mood in the club we're bound to win a trophy this season or next and it won't be the Birmingham Senior cup.

[Dave Cooper please]

That's because we no longer enter the Birmingham Senior Cup!

Does the Youth Cup count  :-

[Fargo Villan]

The 1957 FA Cup is a beautiful kit.  It would be fitting to use it as a 3rd kit for certain matches from time to time.  The 1982 away would be great to bring back for Europe.  I just hope we don't have to wait until 2082 to play in Europe.

[andyaston]

The 1982 top is the best I can remember is was so classy looking.

[Oscar Arce]

For me it is the 67-68 kit, classic Villa.
I would love to see this kit reproduced, but with possibly claret socks with light blue hoops.

This one's pretty good, too, and would be my second choice.

Don't agree, I loved that kit.  Much better than the away one, which always puts me in mind of Simon Grayson.

[Coopers Injury]

the 80/81 away kit
simple yet beautiful

[Archie]

This is the new alleged Villa shirt for the next season.




Apart that it seems fake, it's not bad, but nothing to do indeed with the sober, beautiful kit of the 70's...

[PeterWithesShin]

I think it looks horrendous. Without that blue stripe it might be okay.
