How I hear you all cry?
Just keep on joining in!
The OFFICIAL SITE have revealed the new kit modelled by Villa captain Gareth Barry:
Which to me looks a great kit. Thank goodness for that, couldn't have taken anymore shocks but this is a good, simple, traditional Villa kit and also has a nice lion on the back of the neck as you can see here on the official site also: Click Here
The away kit is also pictured on the official site now: Click Here
Anyway, what of the competition?
Well, anyone who posts from now up to when they go on sale (can't see the date for that) will be put in the hat (proverbial, maybe I should call it a cyber hat, that said, maybe I should call it Tom) and one lucky winner can tell me whether they want the home or away shirt and I'll get it ordered and delivered for them.

Any news on the mysterious away kit?
villain76
It looks good better than all those fakes that was goin around the net
Newman
No, maybe that will be put up later? If it is anything like the home one though, we'll be laughing. Anyone know what colour the away kit is going to be or has there been no mention?
The Fear
i want the top gimme gimme
shortshadyuk
I read it was white with claret stripes like the 82 kit.
chris the villan
Im gladd i missed school for this... shh dont tell my teachers even though it is my last day! Woo!
Newman
Smart kit, can't be disappointed at all.
Tierney
That'll definately be the first Villa kit I have bought in years! Top notch!
Can I urge you all to please buy the HOME kit and not the away no matter how nice it is! Villa Park would look stunning as a sea of Claret & Blue!!!
DeanoVilla
I'll definitely be buying the home kit. (If i don't win it)
And maybe the away kit if it's anywhere near as good as the home one.
AVwhite
Yeah, this will be the first home kit in ages I have bought, and if ht away is a decent '82 replica I'll get that too!
splatt
classy looking top which will be getting bought as soon as its out defo! wish i had it 2 wear out over here in costa del sol though suppose will have to make do with my Withe Legend one instead in meantime. UTV
Belfast Villain
I think that it's beautiful kit, and people who are saying it's lazy clearly don't know Villa.
Not sure yet though, as i don't have enough cash to buy both (being a student), so i might have to wait and see just how nice the away kit is before i decide.
Carlosio
Anyone know the lifespan of the kit - is it going to do two seasons?? Actually come to think of it have we ever had a home shirt last two seasons running????
deano.avfc
Looks classy. I like it. The revised badge will show quite prominently on the shirt, while the actual shirt design is quite sharp. A classy outfit, for a classy act. Old Gareth could have become a male model. He's definitely got the panache.
glensider
Anyone go to the 'major' media event today? Any reports to what happened? Is it still continuing... and are new players going to be unveiled in the new away strip? Is the away strip going to be unvielded today - or is a marketing/statement gaff that that Villa have made today on the o/s? PLEASE, lets not go back to our old ways Villa, I thought 'WE START TODAY'? (Anyone know what that is supposed to signify if anything?)
bazzah
Like the new strip, and I think the badge looks good on it. Like a traditional claret body blue sleeves and that's how it should be!... no chevrons thank *****!
bazzah
http://www.avfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/HeadlinesDetail/0,,10265~1074330,00.html more kit images on official site
The Fear
Is that the new entrance to Villa Park behind Gareth? Opponents coming into the VP Colosseum & put to the sword!
oh yeah, the kit looks a bit of alright as well.
Canuck_Villan
i like that, nice, simple

Away strip modelled by Ash Young on this link. I personally prefer the home strip.
bazzah
I like the away strip too actually. Maybe would've liked claret stripes more, but still, i think it's a classy looking kit. And with the lack of Chevrons its all good. Just a strong look all round i think.
Carlosio
i like it, any idea how long we have 32 Red as a sponsor? It would be nice to have a high profile sponsor alongside the Nike swoosh on our 08/09 kit.
villa96
its ok, i think i was expecting a bit more as it was going to be Nike. In all honesty its not that much better than the Hummel one. Hey ho.
tylervilla
The away kit rocks... as does the home kit! Nice retro feel to it. These Americans know what they are doing!
Rawlie
I like both, top stuff.
weller77
Be getting the away kit nice.
chris the villan
So do I enter the competition by putting a comment on here, or do I have to enter the dark side and write my usual drivel?
This is easier than entering your mother.
BEEFY
I aint bought a shirt since 1981, so I might be tempted to put my hand in my pocket. Probably be the away shirt for me.
DoLpHiNaToR
The new away kit definetely looks like the Rotterdam one and I love it! The home kit is nice too.
delirium
Does anyone know when the new kits go on sale?
PBAVFC
Coooooooool
Still-Ian
ive already ordered the home shirt but the away one looks the buisness !!
atkinson villa
Apparently home 9th august away 4th september
Miss_Aston
Wouldn't matter what the kit looked like I can't stand the sponsors name on it. I'll grab a retro Euro cup top to add to my retro collection.
Gazvilla
Look on ebay for the old shirts Ive bought some brilliant ones.
Pking
It makes me laugh people going on about "High profile sponsors". Does anyone really give a shi(t)!? Had anyone heard of AIG before they sponsored Manure? No? Not unless you work in finance. Yes it's good to get a good deal financially. The fact that the current sposors logo is colour coordinated is good enough for me. Like the new kit. Not bought one since I was at school (32 now). Might get one this year.
Adam Deuce
so theres a comp to win the new home shirt? will the BBC be choosing the winners by any chance? like the style the shirt BTW. our boys wil do well in it next season!
Eaton_thevillafan
I think the new shirt looks quality.....cant wait for the new season now....first time season ticket holder!
Mr_North_Stand
What a fantastic idea for a contest!
505anthony
Looking good, the difference a decent manufacturer makes is immense.Much more credibility.Bazzah, I Believe the "We Start Today" signifies the new dawn at the club.This is the first full year the the club has had to start getting it's house in order.And the kit is the start, next year we will see what sponsor the new regime can get on board and I would expect a significant financial deal.All to the honeypot for Martin ;o)
OneloveVilla
I reckon we will sit out the 32red.co.uk sponsorship and just have the Nike 'swoosh' accross the middle in the future (like Bolton with Reebok and Wigan with JJB). Can anyone remember is we have ever had a shirt last TWO seasons???
deano.avfc
All the new Nike stuff on the website looks quality,the Home keeper one i hadn`t seen until today or the new training gear,top notch.
ASPINALL
Love the away shirt.
Dannygav
Do we know what squad number harewood is because I want to get it on the back of my shirt? You can stuff your Bents, you can keep your Owen's, make mine a Harewood thankyou very much.
bigdiondubs
nice nice nice
leelindsay
Went into the Villa Village on Tuesday bought a new Villa shirt (not the shirt above) and a rather smart Villa Keyring. The shop looks a little tired and they were unable to process debit cards. Cant se anyone failing to join Villa with the chance of winning a shirt....
col8
Both shirts look great, now to get some good players to wear them.
Pezza
Will buy both shirts, away one looks class!
villapeach
Turboriffic!
