Could anybody explain to me why Villa were playing in their away strip at the final? Surely there was no colour clash.

I`d have to disagree about the colour clash

I thought Villa didn't have a shirt sponsor. Acorn is a local children's hospice that Villa raise money for

You can't say red clashes with claret and blue
