In between those years, there have been a number of identifiers.
2008 had a flag you needed to place on your robot. The flag holder was annoying for short robots.
2009 used the trailer field component to identify alliance affiliation
2010 started the bumper colors per alliance.
Bumper colors are fairly superior.

2007 also used the flags.
2004-2006 used little LEDs (also served as the robot status light) that nobody could see and made it very difficult to tell which alliance a team was on.
