I'm extremely proud of our new sponsors for next season...

Aston Villa shun big money shirt deal to support Acorns Hospice - Birmingham Post

It's a pity other premiership clubs haven't followed suit...

Aston Villa FC, ran by the people, for the people.

Aston Villa FC. Ran by an American millionaire, for fickle brummies who finally start coming through the turnstyles when their team play a BIT better.

Can very vividly remember an article in The Mail about 2 years ago where it rambled on about the plight of Villa and how they couldnt get those 'the people' into the ground. Come 6th and you're up and running agian though eh

I'm making a point about Villa leading the way in turning down massive amounts of corporate dollars & instead giving a childrens hospice charity a national platform & publicity....

LMAO

By saying it's a Muslim childrens hospice ?

 

[simzzzz]

superb

be great if its the start of something where all clubs join in and a few more charities benefit.

also doesnt feel as bad having acorn on the front, think some of the sponsors logos can really make football kits looks shite

I read about that a few days ago and thought it was a great thing for them to do. The only other club to have done anythng remotley similar to my knowledge is barcelona who put unicef on their shirts fro free.

But to put a small local charity on the shirts instead of gettin a few mil, says alot about the people at villa. I aint a villa fan, but hats off to em a great gesture. Hopefully a few more clubs wil start to feel guilty and do sommat similar

 

[T.C]

I was talking about tis the other day and said how good it was fair play to them


I still hate them tho
