sexbelowsound Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I'm pretty sure in the champions league if 2 teams play each other they can't both have the same sponsor. i seem to remember Liverpool playing Marseille (possibly) and one of them not having a sponsor. Not that we have to worry about that. Marsielle have never been sponsored by Carslberg as far as im aware. The issue was that alcohol and cigarette sponsors are banned in some European countries, hence the blank shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakes Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 For all the people (including myself) who can't view the pics due to poxy work firewalls and the like, check the link out: http://www.soccerbible.com/news/football-shirts/archive/2010/07/15/aston-villa-home-10-11-nike-football-shirt.aspx Not sure I like the checkered thing at all! :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 i hope we have claret shorts n socks makes the kit look miles better IMO. I agree 1,000 percent. The overkill on the blue spoils our kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4rvillan Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 StewieK got it spot on. I'm sure he is on the inside really. That shirt looks real class. I can't wait to buy it for my sons. they are due a new kit each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmarsha_926 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I think it is good, we have kept the traditional blue sleeves but added something different with the checks. I think there is less blue than previous kist as the collar is not blue and unlie previous seasons the blue stops at the arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted July 15, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15, 2010 Hmmm, you're right it wasn't marseille because of course you can't advertise beer in France. I'm still sure they played a team sponsired by carlsberg though and one of them had to take it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C4rvillan Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Shame about the claret socks though. I'd prefer them to be majority blue with the claret check going around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AddyCarew10 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 When Arsenal played someone else who was sponsored by Emirates in the Champions League a couple of seasons ago, one tem wore 'Fly Emirates' and the other wore 'Dubai' or something similar.

Stevo985 Posted July 15, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15, 2010 It looks great in Stewie's mock up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANVANDAL Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Not sure about the checks but may grow on me. Looking forward more to seeing the away kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 It looks great in Stewie's mock up. The collar on the actual kit is a V-neck and the checks are 3 rows to two in mine, but pretty close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still sure they played a team sponsired by carlsberg though and one of them had to take it off. Teams that Carslberg sponsor: F.C. Copenhagen, Havant and Waterlooville, Odense Boldklub, Pirin Blagoevgrad. I doubt it is any of those, maybe a team who were previously sponsored by Carlsberg?

DANVANDAL Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Are there any current Nike kits that have checks down the side, international or club team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dundeevilla Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Don't like the checks or the new sponsor's logo. Worst shirt for a while IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granto Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Both the checks and the sponsor logo look fine - the shirt looks great. I'll definitely get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosch1one Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Is the away one out today too yeah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risso Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Don't like the checks or the new sponsor's logo. Worst shirt for a while IMO. I agree totally. It's good that they've tried to freshen things up after the last two kits were a bit similar, but this is just horrible. I hope the away kit is better, I liked the last couple. That sponsor logo though....who at FxPro was given the job of coming up with a slogan, a 15 year old work experience kid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
