Saturday’s match programme will include a tribute written by a family friend and the club say they support the plans for the minute’s applause.

Meanwhile, there will be a minute’s silence prior to the game to mark the 30th anniversary of the Bradford fire. Fifty-six fans died and more than 265 were injured in the fire at Bradford's match against Lincoln City on Saturday 11th May 1985.
