Looks okay ....... the best bit is the premier league badges on the sleeve, seals and dingles look on in envy .......

Like it. But annoyed about the all white back - why?

It makes it clearer for Refs to see players numbers 
  • so they can book them for diving when it's an obvious penalty
  • so they can target specific players they don't like
or maybe
  • so they don't send off McAuley instead of Dawson
PS - I do like the new kit and thought it was a great way to launch it. I hope lots of Villa fans were in the station to get the benefit!

It was a FA directive that teams with stripes to make names and numbers more visible for next season to avoid mistaken identities so Albion agreed the template wit Adidas early,.......
The directive has now been moved back to the 2017/18 season since then  Laugh Laugh

Oh well  Doh
No squad numbers yet but at least we no who will be wearing the No9 Shirt  Thumb up
