I like it. The away aswell.

Why it's vile , cheap trash . It's worth about a£5

I really like the away one now, i hated it at first.

I bought the away one in August , I like it but must admit i prefer the black away kits.

They were bought for me as presents. Nothing vile about any Villa-related item.

You are a marketing man's dream! Sell any old tat with a Villa badge on it and someone will buy it.

Heading into brum tomorrow - anyone know if the club shop in new st has much reduced in the sale and also sports direct in the bull ring?
Looking mainly at training wear and maybe a jacket?
It seems the club shop prices are quite a bit cheaper than the online website?

Everything in the shop was 20% off when I went in a week ago. Macron stuff is reduced even more.

Anyone know why the Macron is so heavily discounted? Are we getting rid? (He says hopefully)

I doubt it.

They've probably just found themselves with more stock on their hands than they envisaged.

Have to say, I don't buy replica kits (they look a bit daft on 40 something blokes, in my opinion), but I think these Macron ones look absolutely shite. It's a horrible, cheap looking, over-fussy design.

If only Nike had been able to combine their nicer shirts with an ability to actually get the things in the shops on time.

Bought my one-year-old a kit today, looks great on him.

Dunno Perce, best thing I can say about this years kit is that it's claret and blue and has a Villa badge on it, which is the least I would ever expect! Other than that it just looks cheap and tacky.

Agreed. Absolute tat fit for the Championship.

Ive got to say when the home kit was released I really liked the look of it. In hindsight I think I was simply hoodwinked by claret and blue. Its shit quality above anything else. My Nike Acorns kit is the best ive owned, the quality was absolutely outstanding. I took that shirt travelling around the world with me for 2 years and it is still in such good nick im getting it signed by ex pros with the intention of framing it.
By comparison, the tat i paid £45  for this season is fraying at the sleeve, has those shit macron men falling off the shoulders and the label is coming off. It is cheap as hell material as well, ive come to hate it - an indicator is the fact that I only wear it on match days....Im disapointed its not even going to make it through to my annual holiday in good enough condition to warrant taking it.

If we have Macron next year they need to massively up their game. Those shoulder men need to go for a start....
