Wolves fans are asked to be in the stands by 7.30pm ahead of kick off against Tottenham Hotspur.

A blue floral wreath will be laid in the centre circle before the game and both sets of players will warm up in special shirts.

The tributes will also be in honour of Britain's war dead and all those who have lost their lives in conflict.

A special poppy mosaic will be on display in the Steve Bull Upper stand. A total of 4,272 poppies will be used - with each one representing someone from Wolverhampton who died in the First World War.

Veterans and serving armed forces will take to the pitch before the game where there will be a rendition if the Last Post and a period of silence.

The usual pre-game fireworks will be moved to half time. Kick off takes place at 7.45pm.
