🚨NEW: Forest Green Rovers apologise after failing to hold Remembrance tribute at home fixture, blaming a planning mistake. • Forest Green Rovers have admitted that the absence of a Remembrance tribute at their recent home match against Harrogate Town was down to a “human error/mistake”. • Chief executive Dale Vince explained that the club had focused on organising a Remembrance tribute for its FA Cup fixture away at Luton Town and overlooked the opportunity to hold one at home. • The club uses a matchday planning sheet to coordinate seasonal events, including Remembrance, Non-League Day and Veganuary. • Vince acknowledged that a congested fixture schedule, including an FA Cup replay, had contributed to the oversight, but said it was no excuse. • The club has confirmed it will contact the Royal British Legion for advice on future commemorations. • Vince stressed that the omission did not represent any change in the club’s support for Remembrance or the Royal British Legion.
