They've all been OK I think, last season's was probably the pick of the bunch.  

Nike shirts tend to be fairly easy on the eye, Umbro would have been fine as well, whereas Adidas have to throw their shitty three stripes over everything just to emphasise the point that it's Adidas.

Really don't understand the "boring" comments tbh. Most ppl want a simple claret shirt with blue sleeves so unless it's got some crappy design added it's always going to be relatively "boring". I much prefer the Villa shirts to be simple and classy with a few modern design features.

Our Nike kits have been on the money I think.


I don't get what people are looking for. If you make it some bizarre design then you'll likely piss off more than you please. Keep it simple, the right colours and change it as infrequently as possible. I undertstand this change, so I hope we sign a long term sponsor and keep the next kit for two years at least. Then again we say that every year don't we?

We will never have the same kit for two years. Nor should we. If people are willing to buy them, then sell them. We already have some of the cheapest ticket prices in the league. We're not a charity.

Most other clubs manage to keep their kits longer than we do. There's a  difference between being a charity and ripping off your supporters.

How many teams keep the same shirt more than 1 season? We all have a choice if we buy the replica shirt or not, but as a team and as a business it makes sense to change the shirt every season. Pretty safe to assume it's part of any manufacturer deal also.

I bought the shirt last season but not this season as I simply didn't like the design. I'll buy next seasons shirt if I like the design...if not I'll prob buy a training or lifestyle shirt direct from the club (either way they get my money).

I like the freshness of a new shirt every year. I'd have no problems opting out of buying one though. I dont see why anybody else would find it difficult.
Choice is a good thing. You dont have to buy it.

Did a google search earlier and found a blog claiming our shirt sponsor would be "Twitter". Hopefully it's just a wind up.

Post the link.

That would be an interesting sponsor.

I don't know how Twitter generates money as they don't use adverts on the site and it's free to use.

That Man Utd kit - if real - is very early 80s.

If that is our Villa kit i am pleased with what i see of it, i prefer it when the sky blue arms cut off at the shoulders instead of going up all the way over them up to the collar.
