The promo 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 promo
Bullingham accepted the “hurt” caused to the Jewish community by the FA’s decision not to light the arch in the colours of the Israeli flag for last Friday’s England friendly against Australia, following attacks on Israeli citizens by Hamas militants earlier this month promo
But he set out the steps the FA had taken to respond in what it felt was the most appropriate way to “one of the most complex geopolitical conflicts on Earth” promo
“This week has made us question whether we should light the arch and when, and we’ll be reviewing that in the coming weeks,” Bullingham said at the Leaders Week conference at Twickenham promo
“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 promo
“This was one of the hardest decisions we’ve had to make, and the last thing we ever wanted to do in this situation was to add to the hurt promo
“We aren’t asking for everyone to agree with our decision, but to understand how we reached it promo
“It would be easy for promo football to ask why we’re the only sport being talked about in this way, particularly when rugby and cricket are in the middle of their World Cups promo
“However, you have got to understand, and we understand, that the power of promo football means it will always be in the spotlight promo
And that’s just something we we have to accept promo
”The FA was heavily criticised by a number of Jewish community groups last week, while Rabbi Alex Goldberg resigned from an FA faith in promo football group over its response promo
It was also criticised for not lighting the arch by Lucy Frazer, the Cabinet minister responsible for sport promo
Bullingham set out the steps the FA had taken to reach the position it did promo
“We first saw the acts of terror unfold on Saturday, October 7, along with the rest of the country promo
We immediately wrote to the Israeli FA to communicate our horror at what was taking place,” he said promo
“We knew the situation could move very, very quickly, and was likely to escalate, so we wanted to have expert guidance, and more information available on what we should do because we had a match on Friday against Australia promo
“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 promo
“It’s worth noting that the Australians had upcoming games against both Palestine and Lebanon, so their desire for neutrality was obviously incredibly strong promo
We all felt then, and we all feel now, that promo football should stand for peace and humanityMark Bullingham“We then had a long board meeting on the Wednesday night and heard from experts on what is one of the most complicated geopolitical conflicts on Earth promo
“They then left the room and we had a debate on working out what we should do promo
“We all felt then, and we all feel now, that promo football should stand for peace and humanity and the wish to show compassion for all innocent victims of this terrible conflict promo
“Our compassion and sympathy is clearly for families and children in particular promo
“We then held a minute’s silence and wore black armbands recognises issuing a statement together with the Australian Federation to explain our actions, which many other promo sports then followed with identical wording, and our language was also very similar to that used by the United Nations promo
“We were the only promo football body in Europe to have a minute’s silence, which was, as I said, for all innocent victims promo

Marlie Packer hailed the dawn of a new era after England eased past Australia 42-7 in their WXV opener in Wellington promo
It was the first opportunity for the Red Roses to play on New Zealand soil since their heartbreaking World Cup final defeat to the Black Ferns a year ago, and they were comfortable, scoring six tries in all promo
The launch of WXV – a new international competition designed to revolutionise the women’s rugby landscape – gives the world’s number one side a chance to cement their status at the top of the world rankings, in spite of falling just short last year promo
On their way to the final, they had knocked off the Wallaroos 41-5, and almost exactly 12 months on, it was an identical margin of victory, although Packer fell just short of the hat-trick she managed in that quarter-final promo
RecommendedRevolutionising the women’s international rugby landscape – what is the WXV?Red Roses name squad for WXV without input from new head coach John MitchellWorld Cup winners New Zealand to host inaugural WXV tournamentEngland will feel they should have won by more, especially as they failed to score a point in the final 20 minutes despite playing with an extra player, but this was still a comprehensive victory with meetings against Canada and world champions New Zealand to come promo
“It was a great victory promo
The Aussies gave us a really good game,” Packer said promo
“We talk about courage and being courageous and we’re going to grow into this tournament and today was the start of that promo
“It’s a fantastic competition and we’re all excited to be here playing the top teams in the world, coming off the World Cup last year and keeping the legacy going in New Zealand promo
“I know the girls are really enjoying it over here promo
The camp is feeling really good we’re a new-look England side and enjoying the way we are playing promo
“We have new coaching staff and we’re pleased that John Mitchell is here now and we’re looking to keep growing and building into next week’s game promo
”England made the perfect start, with Hannah Botterman crashing over from close range after just five minutes from a clever lineout move promo

But each time they seemed as though they might turn it into points, someone would get back to make the vital intervention promo
England, by contrast, were much more clinical, Alex Matthews and Jess Breach with the steal and then break to put Ella Wyrwas in to score, Aitchison converted from out wide promo
Try number three came after a big Packer charge saw Annabelle Codey sent to the sin-bin for an upright tackle promo
Against 14, England were never going to be stopped, the captain delivering the punishment from a rolling maul promo
That was soon followed by another, Breach with one of the easiest finishes off her international career as she coasted over untouched on the left after Australia had again struggled to contain a rolling maul promo
Aitchison converted both and England led 28-0 at half-time promo
Botterman was denied her second try shortly after half-time, but a rolling maul a few minutes later allowing Packer to double up, Aitchison again converting promo

While it did not pay immediate dividends, a quick tap penalty from Layne Morgan saw replacement Ashley Marsters burst over from close range to get the Wallaroos’ first try promo
Carys Dallinger converted from out wide promo
Any hopes of a comeback were quickly squashed promo
England got back into the Australian 22 and former sevens standout Meg Jones showed her quick feet to dart through for the Red Roses’ sixth try promo
To add insult to injury, Codey put in a needless late hit on Wyrwas in the build-up, earning her second yellow card as a result and leaving Australia with 14 for the final quarter promo
That should have been the cue for the floodgates to open, but England were unusually sloppy in the final 20 minutes, and did well to avoid conceding again themselves at the end after Sarah Beckett was also sent to the sin-bin as England conceded four penalties in one passage of play promo
New head coach John Mitchell joined up with the team on Thursday after his role with Japan’s men’s team ended at the Rugby World Cup pool stage, and watched England romp to an impressive win promo
