This kit has made me wonder, why don't we see any all black kits more often? They seem to be quite rare, even for away kits and I can't actually think of a club that main home kit that is all black.

just read in the last 9 attempts Villa have only made it past the 3rd round twice and those two times they got knocked out in the 4th round. Pretty bad that :lol:

Before last season, we'd only made it past the 4th round once in 18 years :lol:

I hate games like this being on TV during FA Cup third round weekend, every year there are some middling Premier League teams that get drawn against each other, that gets selected for TV and the games are for the most part always dour.

 

I also think it takes away from what makes the third round of the FA Cup so special, lower league clubs getting their flowers, and their time to shine, whereas this is a game you see several times a season, and is just boring, but because it BBC and ITV that have the FA Cup rights, they pick the Premier League sides because money.

Get your point, but are Villa a middling team ?

Get your point, as well. But when did that ‘flowers’ saying start becoming common? 
 

Only heard social media football ‘experts’ like that Chelsea twat Rory use it. Now I see it all the while. 
 

Annoys me far more than it should. As you can probably tell :lol:

Na, it was just a turn of phrase, I was more making the point that this is a game that I feels like a "Bog standard Premier League tie" that likely doesn't get picked for TV (Even though it is on TV in a few weeks :lol:)

They should seed the draw so a portion of lower league sides get home advantage in this round. Would make it far more entertaining. 

Better for the lower leagues to play the big boys away from home as they get 45% of the gate receipts.
