Everton Remembrance Tribute

Everton will pay its respects to the fallen before Saturday afternoon's Premier League encounter with Brighton & Hove Albion.

The match marks the Club's annual Remembrance fixture and will see poppies stitched into the shirts of both teams.

A Remembrance tribute will commence at 2.50pm – 10 minutes before kick-off – when Dave Curtis, project co-ordinator for Everton in the Community's Knowsley Veterans' Hub, will join three serving military personnel at the mouth of the tunnel ahead of a ceremony on the Goodison Park pitch.

The two team captains will lay wreaths in the centre circle, with Club Ambassador Graeme Sharp also placing a wreath in memory of Leicester City chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha and the four others who lost their lives in a helicopter accident at the Foxes' King Power stadium last weekend.
