Navy 3rd should be nice


I can remember us playing the Spireites at Saltergate in red. May have been 1984, but around then anyway. I'm sure a certain individual will let me know if I'm wrong though.

Im told one lad called Ted on their sales team is a Mansfield fan and helped with the deal which is nice.

only seen a photo of a screen so not much detail but it looked very plain with a pattern in the yellow, no idea how final but it looked smart and didn't have the sponsor on it yet.

Shirt likely to be £55

Remarkable rise for a company founded in 2016, the two lads who own it are only 30 & 28


Even though they will deny it, I will bet a pound to a penny , Mike Ashley and Sports Direct has got a finger in their pie.
They can’t get to be this big so soon unless someone like Sports Direct is in the background.


I would’ve bet my house you’d be on to trot out this again even though I’ve shown you evidence it’s false :lol: :lol: :lol:

At my local Sports Direct in Redditch, there's an entire wall of Castore Villa clothing - far more than you'd reasonably expect in a Sports Direct store. It stocks everything you'd probably pick up at Villa's own shop. Might be some truth to it.

Anyone know when it might be released?

It wouldn’t surprise me if the local sports direct shop at the top of station street will stock Stags tops.

Didn't they have some stags stuff in years ago? Around 20 years or so.

I'd love an away top like the home one from 68/69 and a home shirt from 77/78.
Get the original badge back and have it sewn on, not transferred on like a kids tattoo

Coz they need more time
Yes they need more time
Just to make it right

Damn this situation
And the badge still won’t be right
Despite my expectation it’ll probably turn out yellow
And won’t even come in my size.

I've just seen the kits. Our home kit is bright yellow, I really don't like it.

I can see why some will like the home kit. It has a bit of a retro feel to it but the bright colour totally puts me off.

I don't think it looks too dissimilar to the Freight Rover trophy winning shirt. The red away kit is very nice. The third one looks like something you'd pick up for a tenner in Sports Direct.

That particular home shirt was hanging when it first came out in the 80's, whatever the sentiment.

Looked horrible then and the new version is almost a carbon copy.
