Hate to break it to the group but I think you're right. I've just driven past it and it appears it was still unfinished and those stripes were actually chevrons all along. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villarule123 Posted May 12 VT Supporter Share Posted May 12 I'd imagine there will be some kind of announcement tomorrow if they're putting all this up before a matchday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrchnry Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Does it make us look small time by going to this much effort to announce Adidas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure it’s adidas driven as they did a similar thing with Newcastle, unless we are just even more small time and copying them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 White border is thicker on a couple of the shields... Is that intentional, or a cock up by the painters? I actually think I like the thicker border Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just realise fans are never happy . Why couldn't it just be that it's a part of a much larger plan, branding/kit/package deal and aesthetics for the club/deal? Just a touch they thought would be cool and retro or something? Edited May 12 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TheMelvillan Posted May 12 Popular Post Share Posted May 12 Good lord everyone is so negative I'll stick my neck out and say I'm excited by new badge, sponsor and branding. I'll admit I'm not a brand or marketing expert and trust in those that are Whether you love or hate a new badge really doesn't matter. It's still villa. It's the players and fans that make villa what they are, not what size font they've used for a badge Ill trust that whatever decisions are made have been made by those at the top with villas best interests at heart 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 It would be some change of pace if we roll out the new kit tomorrow night, when you consider that we usually barely have the home kit ready for the first game. Be amazing to see though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted May 12 VT Supporter Share Posted May 12 Maybe they will be in the new kits after the game for the lap of honour if we qualify for the CL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I keep asking this and no one ever answers I've seen mention of a sleeve sponsor... Who is our new sleeve sponsor? Is it known? Or is it just that value of existing one ( Trade Nation ) has been doubled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I think it’ll be a new sleeve sponsorship deal - I cannot see trade nation agreeing to just pay us over double what they were … I think it’ll be a Chinese electric car brand like BYD based on nothing but my imagination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough we bought out the Castore deal but I assume we would have to fulfil the other contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
