Have to say I quite like the simple blue AV one with the lion above.

My favourite away was a white one with diagonal stripe on it
   mine too , if it had acornes on would be the dog's

Acornes? The nominative masculine plural of the latin 'acornis'?

Trendy sort aren't you?

The LDV thing was like a brick tied to the shirt. Awful.

I agree, I generally like badges without the shield behind them.

I don't like yellow on light blue of the current badge, it just doesn't contrast nicely.  Yellow lion on a claret field with blue edging I'd be happy with.  I also don't like the lion wearing a pair of mittens, it needs to have claws.  Finally I hate the AVFC being on the shield.  Add it just above or below and it would be fine.

Yes thats it, not fussed on the ldv either but  diagonal with acorns would be the dogs ! Also liked the blue pinstripe away kit on white background kit from a few years ago

This one?

The Mellberg away shirt is possibly my all time favourite away shirt. Gorgeous.

Perhaps I am wrong in this and may well be being tainted by the European Cup final, but is it fair to say that white is our traditional away kit?

The Bitters for example, I would say their away kit has over the last twenty plus years been yellow and green.

there was the time in the early 90s when Bobby Gould had the away colours changed to Red and Yellow stripes because he wanted them to look more like Roy Race' s Melchester Rovers

Possibly correct, but I remember Yellow & Blue being our away kit for several seasons, too.

Wet Spam's new Adidas  kits don't look too bad...the away one is exactly what' ours should look like. Maybe we should inform the Macron design team of this.

My first away shirt in early 70's was the yellow shirt with blue collar with v neck with number 4 in blue on the back for Bruce Rioch
