- Players across all clubs will wear black armbands and clubs will be supplied with official memorial messages and images for stadium screens.
- Last Sunday’s Community Shield at Wembley saw Football Association chair Debbie Hewitt, Liverpool legend Ian Rush and Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish lay wreaths as supporters observed a period of silence.
