8 photos as Blackpool FC pays tribute on Remembrance weekend ahead of Cardiff clash

Blackpool FC paused to honour the fallen ahead of their home match against Cardiff City on Saturday — the club’s annual Remembrance Fixture.

Before kick-off at Bloomfield Road, players, staff and supporters united to remember all those who served and sacrificed in conflicts around the world.

A poignant pre-match ceremony featured the laying of wreaths by representatives of the armed forces, the playing of The Last Post and a minute’s silence observed across the ground.

The tribute also honoured former Blackpool players and supporters past and present who served their country, as the club marked its ongoing commitment to remembrance.

Players wore special poppy-adorned shirts for the occasion, as fans joined in a moment of reflection to thank those who gave their lives for the freedoms enjoyed today.
