Mark Bullingham accepted the “hurt” caused to the Jewish community by the FA’s decision.
The Football Association will review whether to continue lighting the Wembley arch as an act of tribute following criticism over its response to the Israel-Palestine conflict, its chief executive Mark Bullingham has said.
“I recognise that our decision caused hurt to the Jewish community who felt that we should have lit the arch, and that we should have shown stronger support for them. Mark Bullingham has explained the FA’s decision not to light the arch in Israeli colours following attacks by Hamas “We also spoke with our Australian colleagues and other stakeholders in the game to understand the views of players, clubs, and also of the leagues.
