They done this last season, IMO it's an absolute disgrace and no way to treat the fans. Any idea what our away strip looks like as I've heard it could be yellow !!!! :evil:

What a load of shit!

If you were spoken to like that then you should contact the club and make a complaint and that individual should be fired. The way you were spoken to would be down to the individual employee and not the clubs stance on blue.

The away shirts always get released later than the home shirt. This is nothing new and nothing to do with the colour.

Our club has a history of being poor in relation to the club shop operations. Again nothing to do with the rebrand and promoting red.

Now i'am not a lover of the red. But why do you expect the man who re branded us to red to buy more blue tops? You are better off buying a BU top or one of Karl's tops. After last year, the last place I would look for a blue Cardiff top is the club shop. Sadly :(

I was in the store yesterday and it is like a red empire. Very little blue on display.

I asked one of the staff about the blue away kit and they said that they were expecting to sell the blue kit a lot easier than the red kit. They also stated that the blue shirt outsold the red shirt last season.

Bollocks did it, we sold 20,000 red shirts last season, the red to blue ratio last season was more on the red side

I wouldn't bank on any blue in the club shop with tan. You would be better off buying from a outside source like Karl on here.

Don't have to believe me, 20k may be off the mark and it was Carl, who said about 15k sold. Think what you like about 'Villa fan' or that, it's incredibly boring

Yes Carl did say this, 15,000 Red tops were sold last season and about 3,500 Blue,but only that many Blue because our club refused to have any more Blue made.
Also there has been an incredible demand for Blue Retro shirts in the last few months and our club did sell out, they also have said there will be more, but won't give any date.
It is also true, the club are being inundated with requests for this seasons Blue kit, but as expected our club want to sell as many Red shirts as possible first. Blue will be limited again.
