The FA have amended their guidance to clubs in the Women’s Super League by instructing them to ban Israel and Palestine flags from their grounds.
Eyebrows were raised in the WSL last weekend when the FA appeared to ignore their own guidelines, following the move to ban all flags, shirts and scarves — other than those of the teams involved — for the England men’s games against Australia and Italy at Wembley.
Now the FA have recognised the apparent inconsistency and moved to issue the same guidance to WSL clubs that has been sent to those in the Premier League and EFL.
