The club’s CEO Dane Vince, son of owner Dale, said the omission was a 'simple error/mistake' after supporters raised concerns on the FGR fans’ forum.
FGR, who played away at Luton Town in the FA Cup on Saturday, had home fixtures against Chesham United, Eastleigh and Harrogate Town in the last eleven days of October.
Mr Vince said: “The lack of Remembrance at a home game is simply down to a human error/mistake on the club.
“We have a large ‘matchday planning sheet’ that organises most activities/activations on our games, including aspects like Remembrance.”
He explained that after FGR were drawn away to Luton in the FA Cup, the club knew a tribute would take place there but did not consider holding one earlier at the Harrogate home game.
The busy fixture schedule, including an FA Cup replay, had not helped, he said, but added: “That isn’t an excuse, we should have got this right.”
The issue was also discussed at a Fan Advisory Board meeting, with the club planning to approach the Royal British Legion for advice.
A Remembrance tribute was held at FGR's away match against Luton on Saturday.
The CEO said the club had updated its matchday planning sheet and stressed the mistake did not represent any change in its support for Remembrance or the Royal British Legion.
Remembrance has long been marked at football grounds across the country, particularly at fixtures played around Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day.
Clubs commonly hold a period of silence before kick-off, while players, officials and supporters may wear poppies as a mark of respect.
Ceremonies can also include wreath-laying, the playing of the Last Post and the involvement of serving military personnel or veterans.
The tributes remember members of the Armed Forces who have died in conflicts. Remembrance commemorations have become a familiar part of the football calendar, with clubs across the professional and non-league game taking part in events each November.
