FA forced to issue apology over rushed-to-print England v France match programmes

This is unfortunate.

For all the work and thought that has gone into preparing Wembley and welcoming France for what is being billed as an international show of unity, a print deadline has forced the FA to apologise. England take on France in London for a Tuesday night friendly match but it is the first game for the French since the tragic attacks in Paris on Friday. https://twitter.com/OllieHolt22/status/666664482526117892 And, whilst the venue looks the part and the English have sent out a powerful message of solidarity with their decor, there was a slight oversight in the preparations. With over 70,000 supporters expected to descend on the north London venue, the FA took to Twitter to apologise for the fact that the match programmes for the England-France tie will have no mention of the Paris attacks. https://twitter.com/FA/status/666595044254728192 Instead, it is just your standard game preview keepsake. https://twitter.com/cfmcfc/status/665218775705350144 However, they have endeavoured at least to include something in the programmes. https://twitter.com/FA/status/666595587651985413
