New kit and commercials - (now with added poll)

[TheSandman]

Going back to kit, anyone seen the utter abomination Nike have got Everton playing in this coming season?

It looks like a Darts Shirt to me.

Advice needed please.

My colleague is fifty next week so work decided to buy a Villa shirt with his name and 50 on the back.

I gave my season ticket to a colleague who went into the Villa shop in town and bought it. Unfortunately, they spelled his name wrong. She said she was given something to sign to confirm the order but didn't check as she felt rushed as the shop was due to close. She didn't manage to check till she'd got home.

She has since gone back and bought another shirt with the correct name on.

However, she's been told she can't get a refund on the wrong one so is lumbered with it.

Has anyone ever had similar and had any joy getting a refund or does anyone have a contact in the ticket office who might be able to sort this for the price of a pint, say?

Failing that, does anyone know if you can unpick the lettering so she could at least sell it on to someone else and recoup most of the money?

Oh, and yes. I have told her she's a daft sod for not checking it properly.

At a guess, stick a tea towel on it, whack the iron on it for a bit, heat it up and then peel it off?

From what a few people said last year, you just needed to wash it a few times and all that shit came off anyway ;-)

Mind you, daft mistake to make, really - that's why they make you check and sign. There's no way they'll take it back now.

What's the name on the back of the shirt?

[adrenachrome]

Jude Ass

Just change your name to whatever is on the back and on your 50th you can have it.

Mike Bhunt, but they missed the b out

Simple, just wash the shirt, hang it on a hot radiator and
all adhesive will then dissolve and everything WILL peel
off nice and easy, take my word for it worked a treat.

Have been unsure about the new away shirt, having a look at it in person in the shop in town has made up my mind. I think it's fucking ace.

Reminds me of our old window cleaner, who was most upset when Man Utd sold Ince after he'd bought their rag and had Ince's name printed on the back. "It's not the end of the world is it?" I said to Vince. "Just take it back and add a 'V'".

It hadn't even occured to him.

True story.

I went up yesterday to have a look and yes it was nice. One question though, why have both shirts gone up to £50? I'm sure they were £46 a few weeks ago.

Yep, £46 when I bought one online in late June for my brother's 50th (and, yes, he got the number 50 and his name - the easily spelled "Bill").

Was considering the new away top, but just could'nt
make that kind of leap in the end. So played it safe
and bought another 'Retro' instead. (Like I need more !!)

[PaulTheVillan]

I've not seen a single person out and about in the new away kit yet.

Are we sure its out?
