I heard Man Utd's was £60! At the nou camp club shop last year a Barcelona shirt was €110, about £100 at the exchange rate, with shirts 2/3 years old still on sale for €60/£50, in the club shops in town even espanyol shirts were £60 so it wouldn't surprise me if utd were charging 60 quid in there club shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamsonwoodVillan Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Villa fans don't realise how good they have it really. When it comes to match tickets, official merchandise, a lot of things I can think of... compared with most Premier League clubs nowadays Villa is very good value. I always used to lose the arguments I had with my scum mates and colleagues when I went on about their away ticket price for the derby game, they just said "it's business. It's what you have to pay in the PL now and if Villa charge 'next to nothing' for match tickets that's up to them"!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolteExile Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I miss Nike I really miss being treated like shit I miss kits that don't look cheap. I miss kits you can wash and not worry about any damage. Nike are shit. They didn't give a **** about us, just giving us a colour change template of their bigger contracts and delivering it after the season had started. Macron have done exactly the same in farness. Last year's effort was a similar template to Braga, FC Twente and probably a number of other clubs. They don't have nearly as many clients as Nike, so it's safe to assume they could have given us a more original and bespoke design - had they wanted to. Our training gear was also identical to West Ham's - not good, considering the obvious similarity with the home colours in the first place. Overall, they've deliverd pretty much what was expected, cheap shoddy looking gear. Which is a shame, as when they've pulled the stops out for Lazio and Napoli, they've shown they can produce a nice kit. Our kit and the ones that litter the Championship are nowhere near that standard, unfortuantely. Nike might have had issues with scheduling and distribution with us, but the finished article always looked decent, the training and leisure range was varied and - crucially- it didn't fall to bits after a few months. Apart from the 07/08 kit -which was a similar to the Arsenal one the year before- I don't recall us getting a template 'here's one I made earlier' cast off either.

Killeen30 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) Proof is in the pudding, let see how this years Macron shirts was compared to the joke that was last seasons! As much as I disliked the Macron men at the start they are part of the shirt and if I pay full dollar for them then I expect them to stay on the shirt. It'll also be nice to hear how the claret looks in person with people, last years was too pink for me. Edited June 14, 2013 by Killeen30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I really like the look of the home shirt and even better that its gonna be slim fitted, I only buy the retro tops normally but I think I will buy the home shirt, not sure what I think of the away top yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washing them inside out in a normal 30 Wash like I do with all other shirts yet the still peeled off! I know I wasn't the only person that had problems here! Hopefully enough of us complained to rectify that this season! Edited June 14, 2013 by Killeen30 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully enough of us complained to rectify that this season! I never did any of the inside out business. I just put it on a low temp wash and i've never had a problem. They don't even look like they're about to peel. Maybe i just got lucky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killeen30 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Very strange that some of us had this problem and others didn't! I'll be interested to see how the new one washes anyways and of course what people think of the claret in person compared to last seasons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 The home shirt has grown a bit on me since I first saw it. I didn't notice the embossed 'Prepared' at the bottom on the back before either. I think I prefered the lion that was embossed on last season's kit. The away is still fugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 The home kit looks quite nice judging by the photos of Okore wearing it. Looks like it fits a hell of a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
