FA Vase pin badges

A very random question;

I own both the 85 and 86 Vase winning pin badges. The 1985 is blue, but the 86 one is red, does any one know why it's red?

I'm guessing it's as simple as to differentiate them? But was wondering if there's actually a reason.

We've got nothing else of significance to talk about during yet another dull season.

Think you are right Josh .. as I recall it was simply to distinguish it as it was overlooked and in those days there was no time to get another die made for a new badge. No digital things back in those days my friend ;D
