New Kit 2010 / 11 ?

[LeeB]

Why, regardless of the manufacturer, do we always seem to wait until right at the start of the season before releasing our new kit?

I was up in Scouseland last week and lost count of the number of kids in the new Liverpool kit.

Given that they change every year now the shelf life of the kit probably doesn't last much past Christmas, so the months of June and July, pre-season and with optimism building, are surely the best time to shift units?

Or am I missing something?

Incidentally, that looks photoshopped to me.

It looks it to me too, Paulie.

It's genuine and the man holding the shirt is Alan B'stard.

I wonder what the white board said that needed blacking out?

Definitely.

From Ian Robathan's blog?

I think I'll take this with a bucket or two of salt.

The motto is hideous.  I really hope it's a fake & we have more class.

I'm looking forward to seeing the new black kit- the last black one was one of my favourite away shirts.

[OldUser]

I hope it is photoshopped because it looks a pile of old doo-doo to me.

It's a sponsor that is not even confirmed on last seasons away kit.

I'm reading nothing into it.

If we have done a deal with this company and they are to be the new sponsors, I would suspect that the shirt we have seen is a mock up, rushed through to show what 'it could look like'.
Remember, up until 2 weeks ago we were still no nearer finding a sponsor so I would hazard a guess that this is a rush job to present in meetings between Villa and a potential new investor.

Forex? we being sponsored by an Aussie lager now?

If the shirt is genuine and not photoshopped, I suspect you're absolutely right.

Ive performed some rudimentary analysis on the pic and its either genuine or a very good fake. My money would be on the former at this point.

I couldn't give a forex though either way. As long as they pony up large amounts of cash for the honour and pay for our new overpaid show-pony fanny-dancing treacherous moron.
