Manchester United pay tribute to their fallen soldiers at Old Trafford

Manchester United have put the final touches to their preparations for Armistice Day by listing the names of their fallen former soldiers at Old Trafford.

The stadium's famous front face has a large poppy with the words 'we will remember them'.

A list of former soldiers, who also played for Manchester United, is displayed either side of the stadium's large glass panel.
