It must be related to the fact that we got the sponsors so late, surely?

It's more disappointing that the shirts seem to be recycled old designs from two years ago, though.


Who's shirt is this similar too?


RC Lens 08-09

West Brom didn't have a sponsor last season (or the season before?). Instead of waiting they just sold them and said "if/when we get a sponsor we'll stick it on the front for free".

I'd prefer Villa did that, tbh.


do you think FXpro would want that ?

They should have stumped up the cash a bit earlier then.

No, not at all. But at the end of the day we're a football club. Shirt sales are extremely important to all clubs. And Villa will lose some money from this cock up.

Before Nike came sniffing, weren't we supposed to be getting a deal with a firm called Under Armour?

I remember Deardora launching a kit on the final game of the season a few years ago.

Granted, the sponsor was a rollover from the previous season ( NTL) but it shows what can be done.

Be interesting to see the contact we have with Nike.

Apols if this is old news (I can't be arsed to look) but I've just noticed that FX Pro are also sponsoring Fulham, which I think is kinda naff from our POV.

Yeah, it's been spoken about at length. IMO, as long as we get the money I couldn't give a monkeys.

It was.  I remember because we'd won a trip round the ground, including the dressings rooms, before the game and we got first look at the new shirt.  We got a look at other things as well but I won't mention those. ;-)
