Our away kit back then of a similar design; white and light blue was lovely. Or at least lovely back then.
Apparently if you have one of those in decent condition it's worth quite a bit.

I’ve still got mine, in great nick. I think it must’ve shrunk since I got it so I haven’t worn it for years. How much are they fetching?
Shrink even though they aren’t being worn or washed. I noticed they do that too.

. Didn't like the home shirt at all.
It makes me think about Alan McInally though. So that’s nice.

I don't mind seeing something like that on anyone, it's clearly a present in that case.

I do find it weird when middle-aged men have the name and number of a player though.

Personally gutting for me Ashley Young is gone, as I am now finally older than all the players.
It is the most shattering experience of a young man's life when one morning he awakes and quite reasonably says to himself, "I will never play for the Villa."

I'm still quietly confident. All I need is to undo about 15 years of drinking, smoking and sitting around eating Pot Noodles, AND suddenly become really good at football.

Sorry Rory, you'll never play for Aston Villa. You might get a game for Ireland atm though.

Couldn't find an away one for sale but a home one which is only rated as good condition was priced at £175.
