And on that note... some very poor taste from the Mail:

My guess is that they're too thick to realise what they've done there.

^ Agreed.  Don't think that was a deliberate pun.

With crest change.

Would love relationship with Adidas as there claret and blue is the right colour but probably less chance than me becoming manager of the villa

As long as it isn't Macron, good those were dreadful years for the kit and the team.

Don't want nike with their generic templates. To be honest I think Puma have done a brilliant kit for Burnley.

Watching those programs about when English clubs ruled Europe made me very nostalgic for the Umbro kit from back then.

Let's hope that whoever it is, the new supplier comes up with a proper claret and blue home kit, is able to get stock into the shops for the summer, and can maintain supply of the kids kits until Xmas.  I know it's a big ask!

We will have to wait until new season begins to be able to buy kit .....
My guess is no deal will be agreed until we know which division we will play in next season, then it will take time to manufacture etc
I am disappointed as feel the leisure wear has been great this year ...good quality and the mint colour was great

Very pleased to hear we're disassociating ourselves with UA.  I have refused to buy any Villa gear made by UA due to their links to, and support for, hunting, and especially sports/trophy hunting.

This one is still my favourite from recent years. Simple design, right colours, great sponsor and team that players in it was pretty good too.

Makes sense now that loads of training gear has been released on the rewards site.  I'll be stocking up for the kids!

How long was the original deal with UA, I seem to think it was 4 years but not sure?

Indeed, never liked boycotting my own club.
