Without the silly bit in the middle of the collar.



That looks much better. Maybe CD will join our crew now 😘

Regardless of which fucking sponsor is, that shirt looks like a cross between some shite West Ham would wear, and some sort of hideous Hackett polo shirt you'd see a boozed up solicitor in a rugby club bar wearing.

Absolutely NO, NO and fucking thrice NO to that, and I can not believe any of you are making excuses for it.

Shame on you.

Well said. It's about time the moderators had another purge, IMO. If only someone was able to provide them with a list of suitable candidates...

Sadly only a concept I saw on FB, but these are beautiful.

It’s a nice kit, it’s lovely, if you support the Hammers or Burnley.

This is a tough one because I like most of it. change the sleeves to blue and a claret hem and then do something about the silly little rectangle and I think it'd be a bit of a classic with the more muted palette, especially if they stick with the theme and have the name and number in the same blue so it's almost entirely the 2 colours (ignoring the sleeve badges).

Do the same (but different colours obviously) for the away and then go a bit wacky with the 3rd strip and I'd be really happy with the options for next year.

Change sleeves to blue with claret hem... So the exact same as this years just with no gold piping.

Being Villas kit designer is the easiest job in the world literally paid a fortune for doing absolutely nothing and people will pay £80+ each year for what is effectively the same shirt.

Why, oh why do we seemingly have this habit once a decade of making a dogs dinner of a 'non traditional' Villa kit.

It really sickens me everytime we bring one of these monstrosities out whether it's 99/00, 01/02 or 2018/0.

Claret body and blue sleeve is an Aston Villa top do whatever the fk you want with the away kit.

An occasional shake-up is fine. It's about fashion and profit as much as tradition these days.

Have reported each to our esteemed moderating team so hopefully they won't be posting for much longer.

Can't wait until we win the Champions League in it and you have to see it for the rest of your life. Surely you'll like it then?!
