    I know these are from a few years ago but I really like them especially the collars and sleeve details on the first 2.

     

    Were these your designs Luke?

    I'd love something simple like these ones. There was just a bit too much going on the kits this year for me. Love the white away kit here but would also look great if you substituted that white for black (and we haven't had a black away kit for a couple of years now). Also big fan of the yellow + blue combo.

  2. Odd question, but does anyone know if it might be possible to get the new shirt anywhere in Hereford on Friday? I happen to be there this week and I just wonder if anyone knew of any shops that might stock the Villa macron shirts. Unlikely if it is only released on Wednesday but worth asking.

    Complains about little man on the shirt, complains when little man comes off the shirt in wash.

    I wasn't complaining about the little men coming off, merely said they had when I stuck them in a too high a wash.

     

    Oh it weren't aimed at you, just some of the comments in this thread in general.  :)

     

    Ah no problem then! I'll be damned if anyone is going to say things about me and little men that aren't true...

  5. Not to ruin the party, but he has had only one good season so far. Reckon now we are safe, guaranteed 1st team start, and improved wages he'd at least accept something like a 2 year extension.

     

    Hoping the fact that Lambert has come out and said we won't be making any huge signings means that some money can instead be ploughed into better contracts for our star players like Andi and Benteke.

  6. My home shirt this season is doing alright and I wear it most weekends. I did accidentally stick it in with ether a 40-50degree wash once but that's only made the little men on the shoulder become a little ragged. To be honest, if they came off it would actually improve it, was the only thing I didn't like about this years kit.

  7. Players to be moved on:

    *idea of high/low wages come from media. not working on anymore knowledge than that.

    Bent (He doesn't really contribute to our style of play anymore, probably on too high wages to be 3rd/4th striker and play a handful of games a season).

    Given (I'd quite happily keep him as 2nd keeper, but (a) I don't think he wants to be a 2nd keeper and (b ) he too is probably on quite high wages for 2nd keeper).

    Ireland (He shows the very occasional glimmer of what he was once at City, but we have too many central midfielders as it is and again high wages).

    Hutton (Just awful).

    Delfouneso (I think he is a more championship level striker, if Blackpool made an offer I'd be tempted to take it).

     

    I'm really torn on Bannan and Albrighton. When they both first made their mark I really wanted them to keep up their great form, but they haven't been quite up to it the last two season (obv. Albrighton hasn't really had a chance this season). Perhaps just keep them as they keep the competition in midfield up. Just.

     

    Players to get in:

    Experienced Defenders!

    Actually quite like the thought of Phil Neville,not the player he used to be but still good enough for us I think. Could really help the young players in defence.

  8. The half collar is far from terrible, but it does bug me ever so slightly. Why not just keep it going all the way round? It would be fairly simple home kit and especially if the badge was in the middle I think it would look great.

  9. Macron released images for the new AZ top today, unless we are considered a bigger team still, we might see ourselves get a similar template (the half/collar was what Napoli had this season if I remember correctly). Maybe the kit above with the current AVFC badge and with this collar?

  10. Albrighton just isn't up to it, which is a really shame as under Houllier I thought he could have been a really talent. Again maybe something that he can turn around.

    He's also Injured for the start of the season..

    Ah, how long is he out for? The only news I can find on him is dated back the middle of July saying he has returned from a thigh injury.

  11. If it was a choice of getting a winger or a DM I think it would have to be a winger for me.

    Nzog hasn't really impressed me since his arrival, but hopefully something can change this season now he isn't be asked to defend so much this season.

    Albrighton just isn't up to it, which is a really shame as under Houllier I thought he could have been a really talent. Again maybe something that he can turn around.

    But with those 2 there are a lot of 'ifs'. I really think to get the best out of Bent, or any other strikers, we could use some better wingers to deliver the ball. Johnson from City would be great, but I can only imagine he would want wages far too high for what we could offer. Any other wingers on the market that we are being linked with, or looking for pastures new?

  12. I'd like to see Warnock sold, but other than that random rumour linking him with Sunderland, I don't see who would want him. Mind he's not dreadful/Hutton (great own goal vs. qpr last season), but I could see him ending up as a bench warmer this season.

  13. Don't know if anyone will care, but London-based Villans can get the new kit in soccer scene (both home and away + printing) and JD sports on Oxford Street.

    Had to go for the home kit in the end as much as I think both kits are nice, I've been waiting for a collared top again.

    Maybe I'll get the away if it goes down in price a the end of the season...

  14. The work permit thing may well be a smokescreen

    Smokescreen for.... what?

    Tbh, having done a little work in immigration law, the UKBA is a f-ing nightmare sometimes. With the amount of forms, guidance, and standards you have to meet it wouldn't surprise me if whoever was doing the work for Makoun just messed it up and the UKBA just flagged up his case and froze his work permit. Trust me, they've done weirder stuff in my time.

  15. I may force myself to try on one of the West Ham tops first just so I get the right size

    Wash your mouth out!

    As a very last resort honest! Though I'm thinking I may roll the dice and just try a small anyway now.

    Training wear looks all a bit, well, meh. And could this look anymore like a leisure centre top? Shame.

  16. Yes, as an Aberdeen man I'm hoping (against hope) that Aberdeen can grab 2nd :)

    In the nicest way possible, nah! :P Surely its going to be either Hearts or Dundee United (hopefully the latter as I have sympathies for them). Don't reckon Motherwell can pull out another good season.
