I think it looks better in the supposed leaked game pictures. Yellow on the sides, blue on the shoulders,   stripe on the shorts, and socks.

And not the real thing but made by someone in their, undoubtedly dark, smelly, bedroom.

Might be a training top.

Some of the training gear in recent seasons could almost pass for the main shirt.

Too much yellow and not enough blue to be a home shirt.

Am in Turkey and there are abominations in the markets all claiming to be the real thing. None of them have the new sponsor

They got rid of the round badge to re-instate the yellow Lerner lion so they obviously want to push yellow so it could well be legit, unfortunately. Claret and Blue are our colours, we were the first to wear those colours and I hope we showcase that in the champions league this year.

I keep saying it, and clearly in the minority, but I prefer the version with even more yellow.... *runs away*

I could live with that shirt if all the adidas stripes and detail were blue, but Heck would have to very brave/stupid to approve a claret and yellow shirt when he knows full well that Aston Villa wear claret and blue. I’m refusing to believe he’s either that brave or stupid.

I don't think he is either of those things.

He just does not give two fucks about us & what we think.

I don't think he particularly gives two fucks about Villas history, heritage, tradition, etc, either.

I have no idea how you have come to that conclusion. It’s possible to be critical without going to such extremes. Surely if he didn’t care about any of that he’d have said “Villa Park has had a good run but we need to move to the xxxxxx Superdome”. He didn’t. He showed that history and tradition is important but it has to be balanced against a demographic that simply does exist in the 18th/19th century or harps on about ‘82.

Neither do I (believe he’s either brave or stupid), and that’s why I can’t/don’t believe he’d approve a claret and yellow kit.

Of course he does.  He’s well aware that is one of our unique selling point.

His first decisions within days of his appo9ntment was to get rid of the round badge and apparently pave the way for a return of Lerner yellow

And we had a very popular all claret kit made a fan. If Heck had been involved he’d have been hammered for it.
