Paul Lambert's White and Blackcurrant army

fucking blackcurrant?

Just call it cassis. Makes it sound exotic.

Anyone else like the way the sponsor logo on the home kit has the round bit above the name rather than next to it?

Reminds me of the positioning of the round badge in 1982.

Also, just thinking, but I wonder if the reason we're keeping the lime green kit as a third kit is because it sold so well?

I said the same a couple of pages ago. A sponsor's logo replacing the classic round badge. The new badge is almost in the background on the home shirt

I noticed that the on-line store had a third kit section with no products in it. maybe they'll slot it into here once the initial sale mania for the new kits has died down.

Quite like the away one but not sure on the collar of the home one. In saying all that they usually look different in the flesh.

I think I'd like the away better if it was half white and half blackcurrant rather than quarters.

There is a fair bit of detailing in the new shirts, and looking at these close ups, maybe the quality will be ok.
On the whole, I very much like the look of these, well done Villa and Macron.

Not bad. I kind of like the away and GK because they're a bit different from the norm. Not sure about the blue running down the sides of the home shirt, but again, every few years we have to shake it up, and there's been worse I suppose.

I'll probably get the home shirt this season.

At least it's not Liverpools away shirt. Jaysus.

Don't like having gambling companies on our shirts. Aside from any moral questions concerned, they always look tacky and a bit skanky. Strikes me as a bit lacking in class to be honest. Nowt wrong with having a flutter, but I don't think you should advertise these on football shirts.

I really like the home one. Very 1981 Le Coq Sportif as was expected. My first instinct is that I quite like the away one too. I am very much in favour of a white away kit for Villa and this is a compromise in that direction.
