Don’t much like any of it, looks like a Burnley shirt at first glance. Sponsor looks hideous too.It’s a fail for meOh and I’m not a fan of the new badge either, the lion is facing the wrong way for a start…

I seem to be in a minority of 1 here, but ....If Heck's looked at the badge and then said "fuck that, I want that goddamn lion facing the right goddamn way and no goddamn star" (which is how I imagine he talks in my head), then they're right not to completely dress the stadium up with the interim badge then have to go through the whole process again in 12 months. Specially with that mosaic thing on the Holte End.I'm just ... it just doesn't bother me.Like the new badge, but the new home shirt looks rubbish.
Why do we keep getting these tacky shitehawks like Castore and Luke thingy to make our kits?Can't Nas sort something out with Adidas, FFS?

The shirt has grown on me from this morning when I first saw it. I think it's a fairly modern take on our traditional home shirt. The sound waves are odd though. Villa's social media seems to make a lot of the Allez Allez Allez song, almost as if it's trying to become our anthem, to model the shirt on it is a statement lolThe sponsor, I actually think looks quite good. The gold/deep yellow colour has been used previously and I think works well with our claret and blue. It doesn't say COWS anyway.The badge! What has happened there! I'd love to know more about this - who opted to backtrack on the 80s badge and why! Personally it wasn't my choice - too many random clubs have that same template of a round emblem now and sadly ours is lost in that sea of generic badges. I understand that we know better, but a lot of twitter seemed to think we had ripped off Chelsea. That's the world we live in now. I think it was an opportunity to be more forward thinking, and one spurned. Fascinated to see what Villa will do with this now!

Whatever it's history, the average uninformed fan will think we've ripped off Chelsea's badge. It's not a great look. We might be better off canning this design, redoing it properly this coming season, then going at it again for the 150th anniversary.

Because it's round?Look, I mean, I don't get the issues that people have here, but whatever you think the language on this thread is a little out of proportion. 'Shambles' etc. I can guarantee that nobody out there in the football world gives a damn about any of this - why don't we ask Everton fans what a 'shambles' looks like; indeed, why not ask ourselves a mere few years ago?I get it if people don't like the kit, or the badge, or the consultancy process or whatever, but we risk sounding like unhinged comic book fans losing their minds because Iron Man's suit is the wrong shade of rust. 'Worst. Badge. Ever!'
