The away kit is one of my favourite kits for a long time. Is it bcuz I iz a yoot? Is there a general split with the old'uns preferring the traditional look and yoot more modern? Personally I prefer it when they try something bat shit crazy, even if it fails I admire the attempt. Too many boring samey kits.

I am quite old, and I really like the away kit as well.

There does seem to be a real positive response to the new kits from the majority of people, so I don't think it's an age thing. There are only a few people, like me and Risso for example, that out and out hate both of them. And Gok Wan, I ain't.

Ha well I'm no Gok Wan either, but neither is Gok Wan. He talks shite.

I like seeing people of any age in Villa gear, especially in Chelmsley Wood. And believe it or not, I see more Villa stuff round here than I do dirty- looking, raggedy-arse Small Heath SHIT!

Likewise here. Villa are taking over the East Side. They used to show our games in the Yew Tree shithole Pub too.

I saw a fella in a Small Heath t- shirt queuing outside the Villa club shop waiting in line to have a new Villa shirt printed with a name and number - the wait time was 50 minutes and he stood there all that time - I think he may have been turned away as the club had run out of the letters, T, W, and A.

Ah, going for the sympathy vote.

Actually, we've only got one beggar, and yes, he is a nose. Thoroughly nice chap though.

Having had a close up look today I like the basic design (both home and away), but it think there is too much fussy detailing on it. I also think that the away one might cause the refs issues against the likes of west ham and any teams in red and white.

Hence the Lime green shirt as our 3rd shirt this season.

Does seem a bit strange having a change strip which can't be used again a quarter of the division though...

Why not?
I'm sure it would have been taken into account during design and choosing.
If you look at our two kits together there's no reason for us not to use the away shirt vs WHU and teams in red. There's an awful lot of white and the 'Blackcurrent' is nothing like claret or red.
