I'm quite looking forward to UA. The Macron kits have been largely awful. I'm still disappointed we've never seen an Adidas Villa kit though.
i would like to see a decent adidas or umbro kitunder armour pppfffttt

I am struggling to understand but I really like this post. Its like a word connumndrum or cryptic crossword or something, ill save it for lunchtime. For what its worth I would imagine that the new deal will be heavily claused depending on us going down and when we come back up and numbered accordingly. It is easy to believe that even the bottom line of it will be more lucrative than a deal struck 4 years ago though

Fox sold Arsenal like you sell ice-cream in a heat wave. Hundreds of bidders for even the corner flag. Why get off his bottom ~~ let his PA/Secretary etc deal with it...get it on your CV when you choose the highest bidder? {Get Randy to think you are Brill, and suggest a couple of your "Wenger Dynasty" compatriots come along to secure Villa's future}Now, if the reports are true, he has secured a deal that is worth more than any previous deal. And he secured it as we are a Prem Side with a global audience...etc.WE ain't gonna be a global attraction, if the worst happens, is there a withdrawal clause for relegation? A reduction/adjustment~~ as you suggest ? If we go down, and the Toon do as well we can kiss goodbye to TV exposure.I mean, Leeds hogged the TV in the Chumps league ~ 11 matches before Christmas~ they even went to court to stop further TV matches,their following, with the Toon and the Mackems are going to push us way down TV exposure~~~AND that is heavy factor in selling sponsorship. For shirts...and Corner Flags.WE are not sitting here selling Ice-Cream in a heat wave.... Fox may be right...Faulkner's deal may have been pro rata 4 years ago, but I will be amazed ~~ as you should be~~matt~~ if Fox's deal is anywhere above Brighton's, Derby's or Boro's.
