NowDoINotLikeThat 0 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Our contract with nike ends at the end of this season. would love to replace them with puma or addidas Did not know it ended this year. To be honest have thought our Nike shirts have all been relatively good. Its not something im not that bothered about tho. Tho Macron would be very crap. Link to post Share on other sites
deeps 771 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Macron would be a joke. Their gear looks stupidly cheap. Keep Nike for me (if its possible). Wouldn't mind Adidas or Puma. Link to post Share on other sites

deeps 771 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 i havn't even heard of macron. who got them at the moment? West Ham, Sheff United, AZ, Napoli, Charlton to name a few Link to post Share on other sites
Vandrell 9 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 i just googled macron ..one of the first pictures that comes up in Delph playing for Leeds Link to post Share on other sites
Texas_Mike 195 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 What is wrong with you all.... The West Ham shirt looks OK and what if we were treated with some respect and had shirts available in summer, etc. What is the big deal? Nike have hardly been a success. We are a little fish in their big pool. I like the idea of being a big fish in their smaller pool, Link to post Share on other sites
Ginko 5,111 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Sorry but in my opinion the Macron shirts look really cheap and crap. If this is true then heaven help us, we're Premier League for crying out loud. After watching the F.A Cup highlights earlier though I noticed that some lower league teams have adidas shirts, I think they're the basic ones but still, if the lower league teams can afford them then we should be able to easily. Hopefully it's just a stupid rumour that doesn't come true. Link to post Share on other sites
briggaman 42 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 I couldn't care less who sponsors us or manufactures the kits to be honest. The most important thing is that we go with the highest bidder. Getting more money into the club is more important than having a shit looking top in my eyes... Link to post Share on other sites
islingtonclaret 724 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Nike have done us over three or four times with kit release dates and have produced some very samey kits. Started off making the best Villa kits since the late 90s kits, ended up with very very poor material. Throw in the 'VILLAINS' t-shirt (thanks for getting that off the shelves like I asked, General Krulak) and I want them gone. We would be Macron's leading brand, so they would actually treat us well and create unique designs. I've been saying this for ages, as Everton get unique kits from Coq Sportif and Puma do for Spuds/Geordies. I actually have a Macron kit for another team and it's not bad. I just think people's expectations are that we should have some multimillion pound deal with Addidas and it's clearly not going to happen. Of the big manufacturers, Puma are probably my preferred. Worst possible would be a return to Hummel (NOOOOO!) or Reebok. Link to post Share on other sites
Mantis 8,395 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 I actually think our kits have got better and better with Nike. Link to post Share on other sites
Mattyp_avfc 128 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Macron isn't so bad we would be their 2nd biggest after Napoli... (CL etc.) so it wouldnt be too bad in my eyes (btw they are from italy) some C&B numbers; they aren't too bad tbh we would get some pretty unique designs and they would be cheaper and we would get them earlier than we have with the nike kits!

Demitri_C 12,544 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 have to say i think nikes training gear is alot better than there kits. havent been overly impressed with nike kits if i am honest saying that macron? is that the next best we could attract?

spiezels 273 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Macron kits are wank I'm sorry. I'm not a huge fan of our away but I really like the current home kit and the black socks. I'd prefer Umbro tbh. Or addidas over Macron everyday. They look like Sunday league kits. Terrible quality. Link to post Share on other sites

That's the talk within the industry so I'm 99% it's true. Bugger. I know Umbro is owned by Nike but surely you can have a word :winkold: Sadly Villa aren't a hot property any more. A huge amount of work has to go into a team if you're to give them top treatment and Villa don't warrant it. A smaller company like Macron may be more inclined to do it.
