Minute's Applause

The Football League are asking all member clubs involved in matches over the weekend to hold a minute's applause before kick off in memory of Nelson Mandela, who died last night aged 95.

The Football League Chief Executive, Shaun Harvey, said in a press statement: "Nelson Mandela was an inspiration to millions and his determination, courage and forgiveness marked him out as a truly great man. We are delighted to give clubs and their supporters the opportunity to pay their own tributes to Nelson Mandela and recognise his extraordinary legacy."
