Kits 23/24

[edgysatsuma89]

Having seen more images of the kit I don't dislike it as much as I initially did (fickle prick) and I at least appreciate it being a little different in style. Ultimately I don't care what it looks like but it's the badge stuff that is embarrassing.

Apparently the next badge is going to have ‘Aston Villa FC Birmingham’ on it.

We need to find a similar cringetastic thing to do with our arms to signify Villa, like West Ham and that utterly horrific crossed arms / irons thing.

That's almost, almost as bad as "you're getting mauled by the Tigers" *shit mauling paw gesture*

It’s two lions ‘mauling each other’ so similar.

"The Birmingham Villains", surely? With the lion facing forward, just to mess with everyone.

#AVFC's current shield crest will remain visible next season, while the 1982-inspired round badge will only be used across the 2023/24 kits and training wear.

The club plans to further engage with supporters on the future identity of Villa.

What would be the point?

We already did that & they have decided to tell us to go fuck ourselves...

Because they realised they offered the wrong choices and thus we weren't making informed and good choices.

'Wrong choices"?

77% of the thousands who voted didn't seem to think so.

And while I personally didn't like some of the elements of the circle crest, it was the result of them asking us what we thought as a fanbase.

They have now decided that our opinions are meaningless, but are still going to ask us again what we think in the future...

Whats the point?

They already asked us...

They gave us bad options from which to make a choice is what I meant to say.

Change the text to 'Aston Villa' at the top, and 'Birmingham' at the bottom. Job done.

I like it but not the sponsor.

The sponsor is vile.

We've had worse shirts like the 2014/15 monstrosity but we've definitely had better.

Looks like there's patches on the shoulders. Shit.

I really like it but then again I love every Aston Villa kit.

Same here, without the blue shoulders it would be fine. Badges and crests are placed too high on modern shirts and their proximity to the blue shoulders only emphasises that. On the plus side, the claret and blue used look good and the shorts look smart. The logo would be better if it were all-white but we've had much worse e.g. Muller, 32 Red, Dafabet, W88 and the worst of the lot, NTL.

In the interests of adding some much needed positivity to the thread the new shirt looks much better from the back. Also can we all agree that the black Martinez GK shirt is an absolute beaut.

Interesting tweet.

Don’t much like any of it, looks like a Burnley shirt at first glance. Sponsor looks hideous too.

It’s a fail for me

Oh and I’m not a fan of the new badge either, the lion is facing the wrong way for a start…

I thought that when I stumbled across that. May partially explain the badge decision.
