Red Always Wins

A fascinating bit of research last week (sorry, can't find a link) showed that the team, individual or baboon wearing red was more likely to win a game, a tournament, or a fight.

Examples in the footie world this week seem to bear this out. In the FA Cup Final, Arse wore red and Man U were all in black. Arse won.

In the Euro Cup Final, Liverpool in red overcame AirConditioning Milan in white.
Fascinating really, in the context of these two games. Arse had no right to win the FA Cup, and yet they did. AC Milan slaughtered Liverpool in the first half, but the Reds, playing in red were able to pull back the deficit early in the second half and ultimately win on the hated penalties.
