I like a bit of variation so think the stripes are good.

Not a fan to be honest. Obviously we need a sponsor but the Dafuqbet is garish still. I'm not keen on the design either.

Last good kit we had IMO was 09/10. Last decent season we had was 09/10. If our kit is any indicator of what kind of season we'll have, we're probably going down next year. The sooner we get a proper kit again, perhaps sponsored by Ast Computers or Muller Yoghurts, the sooner we can start winning trophies again.

I loved the green red and black striped one too.

Do the stripes represent prison bars? The prison of mediocrity we're currently locked up inside, with a little chance of parole.

Agreed, I liked them the last time we had them, if only the green and black ones were to return

Just £68 for the full kid's kit. I'm sure they'll justify that price somehow, but I bet they don't use the phrase "cashing in on loyalty" anywhere in the sales blurb though.

Of course, I don't have to buy it and my spoilt brat kids won't die if they don't get the latest kit, but I'd like to see Lerner or Faulkner explain that to them and try and keep a straight face.

Just one question - why so expensive for a kids' kit. If ayone tells me that's what all the other clubs do, I don't support any other club and I expect Villa to set precedents.

Shit. I might as well have copied and pasted my comments from last year

Friend of mine just ordered the new Liverpool shirt and shorts for her 8 yr old grandson from their site (yes I know) £79.50.

It's alright, but i'm not the target market now i've reached an age where football shirts don't really look good

I still think i've prefered every Macron design to Nike's efforts too

I asked my boy If he wanted it

and he replied  I prefer Super Mario Kart 8

I suppose he will get more fun out of that at the moment

how cool would it be if, instead of us justifying our stupid stupid prices by citing other teams' stupid prices, we just sold full kids kits for £20. We'd still probably make £15 profit. Is it all about squeezing the last drop out of fans?

I like the stripes, but the sleeves look half finished without a bit of claret on them... Ah, well.

Of course it is. It's the Premier League.

I like the new home kit, just need some decent players to be wearing it though.
