Nice idea, but isn't it a bit embarrassing as well? Reminding the world that we haven't won the FA Cup for 55 years.

I agree.

...sub humans like noses would think it was how you remembered your pin number  ;D

On the contrary; Noses, being obsessed with Villa, would be more likely to understand the significance of the date than some Villa fans.

Of course we're just as obsessed with them as they are with us (snigger) so we'd all know the significance of a Nose wearing a Royal Blue version with a white "1995" on the front.

Their famous Double-Winning Season, of course!

Why didn't the da bring one a dem back den den? That fits with about the first time I encountered the Villa and was fascinated by Dad's stories of derring do on return from my town of birth; and gaelic football went out the window.
Being 'english' I was expected to know all the rules as we played the 'foreign game' , disapproved of by the teachers, in the field behind the school.  Perfect well thought out shirt. Says it all, succintly..

Sorry mate but are you on drugs?

No, I am a Villa supporter!

Ow, roight?? Republick the clothes shop? Shows how old I am. I thought yow meant the Republic of Ireland.
All fits now.
I do buy the odd T-shirt from Gap tho..

If you go to www.soccerprint.co.uk they can do whatever year you would like to celebrate, and they do sizes that are probably better for the majority of us. Prices aboout £11.99.
I have no connection just have used them a few times for presents etc

Yes be careful lads.  I bought one the other day as mentioned, was only when I got home that I noticed two holes in the back of it.  Took it back today and got replacement and thoroughly checked, I think :-)

If you are going into the store in the Bull Ring, there aren't any on display but they have them in the stock room, so just ask an assistant. 

Hope that helps

UTV !!
