Claret body, blue sleeves, white shorts, claret socks with a bit of blue. (stand alone lion badge)
Crazy idea, I know, but that's what I'd like to see.

This thing looks like a leisure/golf polo shirt.

I'll just have to get used to it, I suppose.

I was trying to work out why so many people on here hate it so passionately, because to me it seems fairly conservative.

And then it hit me.

A good compromise was when clubs alternated new shirts. So one year it was a new home, following year a new away and so on. Then ManU, shock horror, realised 3 new kits every season was money in the bank and now here we are. Another thing to blame those twats for.

Abso-bloody-lutely!

I don’t like it, it looks more like a casuals polo shirt than a replica shirt.

I don't like it.

I fuckin' hate it! After forking out for a TNT subscription, I think I'll go back to listening on WM! ;)

And, aggressively marketing to villa fans that this is a retro kit when we wore it for a few months at best in a season of utter shite. They can f off.

We get so much right, and adidas have been great, but this for me is a big let down 1/10

I do have a nagging suspicion that the collar will curl upwards. The 1996 shirt does that and it's bloody annoying.

Would have looked better if the rectangle at the front had been a v-shape as that was the iconic look throughout the 70s.

Stick with the one we had this season as a new sponsor automatically changes the design. This looks like something West Ham would wear, it’s shit. Why have they fucked with the claret when after all these years they get it correct? Who is responsible for this abomination?

I think the top will look fine with Winners 27 blazed across the back of it.

If it's a different shade of claret, they can get fcuked.
