Aston Villa Kit 26/27

[Exeter 77]

It was -:I've got one.

[London Villan]

It has been over the years, my brother had it.

Some good shots of it in this. As well as a little Emi groin zoom shot. 

I think it looks better being worn and the players look smart. Ollie seems to really like it.

[AlexAlexCropley]

Short sleeved it doesn't, long sleeved it does.

So do you have to buy the top to get the chance of a picture with the trophy tomorrow?

Long sleeve.

[Somniloquism]

Never noticed the gap. Just noticed it was going to the cuff in the one picture which didn't show the upper parts as much. I can only think the gap is because of all the sleeve sponsors etc so might not look as bad once that crap is added.

Yeah, must be because the stripes would make it hard to adhere the sleeve badges on.

Are Audi rumoured to be the shirt sponsor?

Rumoured, but others saying it isn't Audi. https://x.com/JUSTIN_AVFC_/status/2059268166266593427

Doesn't mean they're going to be the shirt sponsor.

I didn't know that at the time, as I can't remember the relegation, and without Wikipedia, the world was a dark, data-free void that still gives me nightmares.

Hand-me-down footie shirts were par for the course round our way. My best mate didn't own a football shirt that hadn't been his brother's first.

Luckily I only had older sisters, and their dresses didn't go with my footie boots. But because of the price, I could only have a Villa shirt as a Christmas prezzie, so I still had to wait till half way through the season anyway.

I was the oldest in the family so no hand me downs for me. I only had two kits as a kid. Full kit and tracksuit for Christmas in 82 (was really chuffed) and the 89-90 home and away shirts as a birthday present the year I left school.

The new shirt looks a lot better in that vid, especially the long-sleeved version.

The first replica shirt I had was the AST kit in '96. No childhood kits, but on Xmas Day 1977 I got a Villa lamp and the round League Cup Winners mirror. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/267432459289

Still have the mirror which is mint, but not the lamp.

I had the round one as a kid and still have this one as well

Of course, not that I'd want to sell it.

[Towser]

Is this a clue? If so its Coca Cola https://x.com/AVFCOfficial/status/2059892678930633015?s=20

[Olneythelonely]

No. They’re already one of our sponsors, so doesn’t necessarily mean more than that.
