To you guys buying the Germany/Dutch away shirt, where are you from? It interests me because I would probably never wear a shirt from another European nation, no matter how beautiful they are lol

A Japan shirt with Kagawa or Cote d'Ivoire with Drogba for example, okay because I love the players and wouldn't mind those nations doing well. A Holland/England/France shirt? No way, I just wanna see them fail and laugh at them hahaha

Well, seeing as I'm from the U.S. I don't have a horse in the European race. I guess I'm lucky in that regard because if I was from a European nation you can bet I would have the most national pride in this thread. I do have some German heritage, and I liked the Dutch a lot in the WC2010, which was the first World Cup I watched since following football as closely as I do now.

I probably wouldn't consider getting any of the other nations (except Portugal, I will eventually get a Portuguese kit), maybe Ireland if I liked the kit enough. I also want a Japanese kit with Honda on the back, and the Aussie one this year looks tight, but I won't be purchasing that. Mostly, I'm like Messi where I have fun collecting kits.

Aussie kit for reference:


Also, if AVB get's fired, he better come to Villa. #dreams

Its more a curse at times. lol.
 
Will probably get ME3 but it's sad to see the direction Bioware are taking all their games in. But I'm a sucker for moral choices in games, especially games that lets me be a crazy racist and sexist asshole, pure human battle squad, no aliens allowed! Wish I could make Shepard uglier though.

I'm not bothering with it.

You're fucking space racist extraordinaire Ashley aren't you?

Or do you trash Tali's space panties for perverse kicks?

What the crap? You guys are talking about Mass Effect? I just started playing it last week :D Sunk about 15 hours in so far (I’m on Feros) and, yes, I’m a male Vanguard! All I need is a trusty pistol and some kickass biotics to mess shit up.
 
Male vangard also. Default face as well. I think Shepard as a character just works better that way. You get to experience all the hilarious moments during cutscenes as Bioware 'intended'.

So the chances of you supporting Denmark at the EURO 2012 are slim to none? Laursen is not amused.

New Spain Away kit, is sexy as hell. But at 90 Euro it can wait. Same for the Keeper kit posted above.

I will get Valdes on the Away keeper kit as I love him and I have Iker on the home. Now you guys can choose a player for me to get printed on the away outfield kit. Most votes wins. Oh and Xabi alonso is out as I already have print bought for him on the home kit. By default Ramos is out.

Nice little video here too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=skLKVDitB1w

Edit: Villa in the new kit :( Come back soon.

I don't like that Spain top at all. Adidas have been disappointing me for quite a while now. I'm glad Newcastle moved to Puma as the latest home shirt is nice (silly sponsorship application aside), as are a bunch of other Puma tops.

Same, the emblem combined with the color of the shirt makes me go bleh.

Aston Villa lost £54m in the year from 1 June 2010 to 31 May 2011, the club has announced. That is a record loss since the American credit card magnate Randy Lerner bought Villa in 2006, and the club's losses have deepened every year since. In the previous year, 2009-10, Lerner's UK-based holding company which owns Villa, Reform Acquisitions, lost £38m, so losses worsened 42% in 2010-11.
