Kappa Innit

I miss the days where a hunky bloke would get his budgie smugglers on for the kit launch.

MODERN KIT LAUNCHES OUT !.

Looks alright, it’s claret with blue sleeves. Problem is it’s made by Kappa but as I don’t buy the stuff anymore and haven’t for years because I’m cool so it doesn’t bother me overly.

The one thing that stands out to me on social media - and it shouldn’t but it’s the PC bollocks world we live in - they’ve had to release it with one of the women players. Nothing against that at all, just this positive discrimination stuff bollocks. Have a photo shoot with players from both teams. As a revenue stream, the boys will buy it when they see jack modelling it not a random women’s player. Getting ridiculous this box ticking

I don't think they'll be making one to fit my 50-inch chest, a bit puny these eye ties

I prefer women models


probably more to do with me being a dirty old man

No mate not when 60% of the male population aren't slim

If it was a young Emma Willis like back in the day then fair enough... these women footballers aren’t interested in showing off for us dirty men.

Most of them would like to show off for the ladies though

Standard. I won't be happy until we have a local designer making the shirts and a local charity advertised across the chest rather than some crappy company.

You won’t be happy then. Won’t happen again.

 

[hightrinity]

they do a standard shirt and a slim fit.

"Stadium shirt" aka the shirt for all the fat gits (like me) who can't fit into the normal one...

I mean like 99% of football stuff is pictures of men. Do we have to cry on every occasion it's not? Women have existed since at least the 1990s are now more than half the population.

I love the "alternate" shorts. I've always liked the sky blue shorts and will probably get meself a pair of those...

stadium shirt £57 pro shirt £90 that's an extra £33 for less fabric.

If you don't care about the intricate details why don't you just go and support Real Madrid?

You can really fuck off with that kind superfan bullshit. Don’t ever question my support for the club again.

I’m afraid whilst I’d like to think that rich clubs like Villa could lead the way by altruism etc and supporting local businesses I’m just not naive enough to imagine that making the shirts in this country is realistic.

Would have been happy if Wes's daughter had modelled it.

Nice, pretty traditional shirt. Still wish I could buy one without the sponsor on, as an option. I'll never walk around as a billboard for a company unless I'm paid!!!!
